There are different kind of suit in the market, if you wanna go classy, pick the tonal grey for plaid or stripes, if you wanna go modern, pick something coating in the surface to make you shine.
- Most of the guys would like to know how can they dress for dating, can you pls give us some advice?
- Fine Dinning
You should dress with a modern smart blazer for example navy blue with a little coating on the surface, because the lighting will be so gloomy and you should like yourself shine in such occasion. To go along with the blazer, you can pick the shirt with some texture like jacquard in white color, pls remember to roll up your sleeves during dinning and button down a little to give a more relax feels. For the trousers, you can match with the color of the blazer a little darker, better dress with something slim fit but never go with cropped pant even it is so fashionable. For the shoes pls keep it clean and in Italian quality.
- Have a drink, happy hour or late at night
You should dress in smart modern, for example a white shirt with a little bit crispy and roll up sleeves and a pair of nice jeans. It is important to bring your identity and your character by your outfit, if you are a outgoing person, pick some shape color for your top and if you are kind of gentlemen style, pick something close to your skin color that will all makes you look great!
- tea or coffee
It usually happens after lunch or a short break during work. If you think a tee is too causal, add a cardigan on, there are some trendy and stylish cardigan in Zara or H&M, most of them are easy to make and match with your working shirt. So try something different but the key is they should be comfortable but not over, less is more!
