Favorite Colors for Dress Shirts

Jay687 · Dec 27, 2007

Feel free to list top 5 or 10 or whatever. Like rank your favorite or what you think the best colors to have are.

My top 10:

1. Light Blue
2. White
3. Grey (medium)
4. Red
5. Darker Blue
6. Olive
7. Charcoal (maybe black)
8. Deep Purple
9. Pink
10. Brown

Hell, that's basically most colors, but that's the rough order for me... don't have all these colors though. It's expensive, lol. I'm only 20 and an undergrad, will definitely be nice when graduated to buy clothes a bit easier when get some income... however, trying to get a wardrobe going. I like dressing fairly nice.

Light blue. I coiuld be pretty happy only owning light blue shirts. When I stray, I get a white shirt with blue stripes or checks.

I don't get the popularity of gray.

If you do have the right skin tone with the right hair colour ,it is fantastic...

I do have some superb metallic grey bespoke shirts and they're stunning...
Grey is offering variations and versatility from the light grey to mid-grey and all tones with a shade of brown,green and so on...

I do love the caviar grey...

Funny, but for better than 99% of the world this is true.

Going over the shirt shots in the 'folded shirt Appreciation' thread pretty well confirms it.

As for myself, anything outside blue and white at work gets comments.

Moose ,do you care? it depends on your position in the company and your willingness to be part of the group or being yourself...

A light pink shirt is stunning and very elegant....
Blue is also offering differnet shades from light to French or Prussian blues...

I love grey, it's a nice neutral color that varying shades can give you different effects. I dunno, favorite of mine.

Am I the only one that likes wearing different colors? I dunno... I perosnally like stayin within same style boundries, but just switching up colors.

I don't think I could do the light blue and white thing 24/7. Even though I do love light blue...
