PRESENTS THE ULTIMATE CHEAT GUIDE TO MATCHING
Shirts and Ties
Matching solid colors is easy, but combining
patterns is the way to go if you want to add some
character to your outfit. There's no right or
wrong, just stay away from looking like an
optical illusion by following these basic rules.
2
FIRST RULE OF THUMB
A fail proof rule is to start with your shirt.
Establish the primary color of your shirt, and
then choose a tie with a similar color anywhere
is its patterns.
3
SAFE COMBINATIONS
TIP Your tie should always be darker than you
shirt.
4
SECOND RULE OF THUMB
Your collar and tie should be in proportion with
each other. Also remember to pair large patterns
with smaller ones, you want your patterns to
visually complement each other.
5
RISKY COMBINATIONS
TIP Avoid mixing patterns that have
identical proportion.
6
PRO TIPS
DIMPLEThe dimple is a little hallow right below
the knot. It's planned imperfection, a sartorial
detail that will make you stand out.
PROPORTIONSThe size of your collar
should complement the width of your tie, and the
width of your tie should match the width of your
lapel.
LENGTHYour tie should reach the Belt buckle or
the waistband of the pants. It's an old fail
proof rule. Remember it!

ADD SOME FUN!
It's not all about the rules, have fun with some
cool graphics! The goal is to give you a sharper
and dapper look.
