Slim Fit vs Regular Fit
Slim fit shirts follow the body more closely for a sharp, modern outline under a fitted blazer. Regular fit shirts give more room through the chest and waist for comfort over long days. Not sure which fit is right for you? Check our size guide.
How to Wear a Formal Shirt
For the strictest dress codes, choose white or light blue with a spread collar, a tie, tailored trousers and polished shoes. For business casual, drop the tie and try a button-down collar or a fine stripe. For evenings, go darker: navy, black, teal or a satin finish, tucked into slim trousers with loafers.
