Men's Suits For Spring 2010
In all of men's fashion, suits probably have the worst rep as the 'boring' piece
, the one you don't wear unless you absolutely have to. It's time to discard the idea, especially this season where suited style is taking a turn for the fun and exciting. What you have to see is that looking smart and dressed up never has to mean staid and dreary. Stock up on the season's new stuff and you'll be in for a very colorful ride.Bright Shirts Make Bold Statements
The fashion education of every man starts with dad, who dons a white or sky blue shirt with a patterned tie each and every weekday morning. From that ritual comes a standard formula of style: plain shirt plus random tie equals office hours. The practice has been unraveling in the past few seasons, and a new trend is ripe for picking this spring.
Make your own 21st century style statement with a bright shirt. Pass on the pastels and try a shirt with a more eye-catching color. Oranges and reds are particularly effective for this trend, but violets and greens work just as well. If you feel out of your depths with a too bright shade, look for a hue that's slightly more washed out. As long as you don't come too near to pastels, you keep yourself well away from Dad territory.
Contrast is the secret ingredient that will make such an unusual piece work. Unless you want to achieve a Vegas-y effect, a strong and grounded necktie is the best complement to a vibrant shirt. Whether it's for the office or the after-five cocktail, a necktie must always, always stand out against the shirt and suit.
Accessories Make the Man
There are times when a suited outfit isn't entirely about the suit. It's entirely possible for a single piece to upstage the two- or three-piece institution and take the limelight. In this case, it will be white shoes that will do the upstaging.
Like with the solid neckties on bright shirts, it's the contrast that makes this combo seem so cool. Against the typical suit palette of somber grays, businesslike blacks and strict navy, white provides a cool and very spring-appropriate counterpoint. Wearing a pair of shoes in a non-formal material - bucks instead of leather wingtips, for example - is very nonconformist yet unfailingly stylish.
Note that a pair of white shoes almost always results in a more relaxed looking outfit. It's a risky proposition for the office, so you may want to test it during Casual Friday first. If the boss and coworkers don't seem to mind, only then can you go the whole nine yards.
Printed Pleasantries
Few things say spring like a good print, a lighter mood from the heavy wools and tweeds from winter. There's more than one way to skin the printed cat, and any one of them would be a good idea to liven up your style this spring.
A printed shirt would probably be the easiest way to pick up the trend. Plaids and checks, after all, have been in men's fashion since time immemorial. You can even get extra style points by choosing a bright and bold color incorporated in the pattern. The only caveat is that you have to keep the rest of your outfit simple: a simple necktie, suit and shoes. A print on your suit is a more daring and dandyish way of doing it. The rules are just the same: use a bold print, but keep the rest of your look understated.
Printed ties are another option, especially now that lighter cotton ties are coming into the spotlight. A slimmer profile and the weightlessness create a lighter and more laid back feel that's just perfect for the season. The prints usually come in plaids or checks, and will work best when the ground is a dark color and the shirt is in some light pastel.
