What to wear with braces?

mojo2488 · Jan 26, 2009

Hi guys,

Was just wondering if anyone had any suggestions on full outfits to go with braces? I was thinking maybe skinny jeans, plimsoles/ retro high tops with shirt? any variations on this or other suggestion would be much appreciated.

I thought you meant orthodontics before clicking the thread

. I think that combination sounds pretty bad. Suspenders warrant something a bit dressier than plimsolls IMO.

do you want to look like Gordon Gekko, your grandpa, a caricaturized wannabe generic hipster, a fabulous Brodway hopeful, or something else altogether?

well the braces are not really formal braces, they're checkered ones from topman so i assumed they weren't for a formal outfit.

"Suspenders" is American English for braces.

Regardless, I don't think they're worth trying to incorparate into an outfit since you need to ask. I'm also picturing that these checkered topmans would look heinious.

Definitely full canvas only

Half canvas is fine

Really don't care

Depends on fabric

Depends on price
