Almost all my shirts are plain blue, pink, or white, and never have I thought my outfit needed a 'more exciting' shirt pattern. About the only thing that had concerned me was different collar (button down) rather than different shirt patterns.
I don't really see the point of OCBD shirts when wearing jackets, reading the history about how OCBD shirts were actually made for the collars to stay down while people played polo, hence the casualness of it all.
I hear this a lot, and it doesn't make sense. Is there a good reason to base how you wear a shirt on how it would have been worn by polo players (never a vast segment of the populace) roughly a hundred years ago, rather than on the way it's been worn (admittedly not in every circle) by an awful lot of men over the ensuing century? Shouldn't whether something works be more important?I don't really see the point of OCBD shirts when wearing jackets, reading the history about how OCBD shirts were actually made for the collars to stay down while people played polo, hence the casualness of it all.
I don't see anyone arguing that ties should only be worn by Czech soldiers (which was the origin of the modern tie).
Both of you are absolutely right, this is just an opinion of mine. Everyone is free to wear what they want, definitely.
I just find that having a button down collar on some really nice silky fabric isn't doing the fabric any justice.
