I am going to a wedding in a few weeks and I was wondering what color shirt to wear with a dark navy suit? And also what type of tie to match with it? I have tried it with a plain blue shirt but it kind of makes the whole outfit look very plain and dull.
Answer:
Dark navy suits are the most basic color suits every men should have in their wardrobe. The color shirts to match are limitless. I would rather continue discussing about the plain blue shirt that you have already chosen, it should not go wrong with your navy suit. Preferably you should choose a blue shirt that is of medium blue rather than dark blue or light blue. Medium blue can be easily coordinated against most men's facial complexion as well as nicely matched against the navy suit.
Probably the best bet to brighten up your look would be the choice of nice colored tie. If you are wearing a medium blue dress shirt, then you can play around with the different gradient of blue with the darker navy on the outside, then the medium blue dress shirt on inside, and then finally going for a blue tie that is in between the colors of navy and medium blue. You can attempt to pair it with a tie that has largely blue and patterns with other colors on it like white or red.
Nowadays it is easy to get hold of patterned ties. I would recommend you to try stripe or check or dotted ties. But generally most men can coordinate better with stripe ties rather than check or dotted ties. In terms of colors, your tie just needs to have some basic blue or gray tone within it and the rest can be of more striking colors like red, pink, yellow, green.
