People always wear ties darker than their suit. Black ties look great with both navy and gray suits.Originally Posted by LVoer
I think it could work, but only if you change the shirt to white or a light blue.Originally Posted by SpooPoker
In other words, is it acceptable to wear a tie that is darker than the suit?Originally Posted by Von Kaiser
+1 basic rule of aesthetics is you need a background neutral color from which the other colors can stand out... if your shirt, tie and jacket are all a substantial color, neither of the colors will stand out, (and you'll look like you're stuck in the 80's.)Originally Posted by Svenn
Sorry, I'm a total neophyte here, but aren't you saying a person should always wear a white shirt?Originally Posted by Von Kaiser
Not necessarily always white shirts, but always light. Light blue and white are the staples; light yellow/ecru/pink/mauve as alternatives. Dark blue/purple/black are not proper unless you're clubbing.Originally Posted by 020-banker
Not always true. Would depend entirely on how your skin tone looks against the shirt color.Originally Posted by Metlin
