Hey SF, long time lurker and just decided to sign up.... LOL j/k

Anyways, decided to call on you big boys for some suggestions from the experts.

What color tie goes with:

  • Grey Suit
  • White Shirt
  • Black shoes & belt

I know. I know! This combination is probably the most neutral combination and will go with anything


It's for a wedding. I'm just a guest. I thought this would be easy. I bought a black tie, but now I'm having 2nd thoughts.

I want to wear a tie that should make a solemn and dignified impression, but at the same time I want to wear something that the bridesmaids will like...so I won't mind having some fun with the tie :)

Help me pick out a color of the tie and pocket square!!!!

Color is similar to this






Edit: It's a 3 Piece suit






Thank you for your time guys, I love you!

I agree with a textured tie. Otherwise it may be too bland. I'm for a Burgundy grenadine. Or some grenadine. Not a trendy slim one with a three piece.

If that is you in the suit jacket, it's too small, and the body type is too big for a 2.5" tie.
