Blue Patterned Dress Shirts

With patterned dress shirts, start with the smallest pattern you can find. A fine stripe or a subtle check reads as texture at a distance and stays easy to pair with a tie. Save windowpane, plaid and bolder prints for sport coats and open-collar wear. When you wear a pattern dress shirt with a tie, vary the scale: a small shirt pattern with a larger tie pattern, or a solid tie if in doubt.
