Being presentable is one of the most important things that you need to take care of when you leave college and start working. Your attire decides if you make or break an interview or you are fit for the unexpected presentation a client asks for. Your look also tells people if you are serious about your work or are laid back and will procrastinate over things.
It’s been a very long time since people have been confused if checks shirts are good as formals or are very casual and only meant for the day off when you are laying low.
Today we are here to tell you how to know if your checks shirt is formal or casual
1. Uniformity:
When it comes to work, everything should be smooth flowing and uniform. So if you have a shirt that has a uniform checks pattern on it, it can be styled as a formal shirt to work. But keep in mind that other factors might make your shirt look casual even when the checks are uniform.
2. Size:
When it comes to checks the smaller the size of the checks the better it is for a formal meeting. This is because the small checks make the shirt look monochrome and if there is a use of white threads with one coloured thread, it tones down the colour to a much dull colour that is office appropriate.
Also if the checks are uniform and big like the windowpane checks with just 2 thin lines crossing over, looks great. If not the size of the checks, check the thickness of the lines making these checks.
3. Colour:
Office is more about uniformity and keeping it low, so when it comes to colours, multi-coloured shirts are a no-no for checks shirts and can look too casual to be worn at work or for a formal meeting. But for shirts with very small checks which give a monotone look to the shirt.
4. Style:
Even if you are planning to wear checks shirt for a formal meeting there are ways you can amp it up with adding a plane contrasting coloured tie. Try not to add an extra colour and use a colour that is already present in the shirt, usually, the base colour is the best option. If you are planning a casual way to wear your checks shirt, you can do so by losing the tie and then letting it hang out rather than tucking it in or even tuck it unevenly in your pants and make it appear a baggy for a more lazed look.
