Unlike most women, men actually prefer repeating their outfits on different occasions by making slight changes in the ensembles. For instance, changing the shirt and tie paired previously.<\/p>\n<p>Making a conscious decision of \u2018what to pair with which one?\u2019 could be one of the most important questions. Whereas, on the other hand, there are instances where an overload of choices complicates the process of decision-making. Despite all these challenges, the icons like George Clooney, <a href=\"https:\/\/teslastir.com\/elon-musk-facts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Elon Musk<\/a> and Leonardo DiCaprio have proved that men do take styling seriously.<\/p>\n<p>Not to forget, the pressure of standing out in the crowd whilst having not many options in the men\u2019s section of daily wear has never stopped any man from being dapper in their respective work fields. Let\u2019s admit being dapper isn\u2019t a child\u2019s play for sure.<\/p>\n<p>We don\u2019t blame men or the limited options for common appearances. Neither do we define sartorial look as luxury brand apparel. We believe it is all a play of matching the right coordinates. But coordinating different colours and patterns can be a difficult task. It takes years to master the technique of \u2018how to wear a tie\u2019 and \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bewakoof.com\/blog\/style-guide-to-various-tie-knot-styles\">how to tie a tie<\/a>\u2019 rightly.<\/p>\n<p>By the time you ace it, you find the next challenge waiting right in front of you- the challenge of coordinating the right suit and tie that complement each other. The colour game is much like science where each colour, as well as pattern, are like a chemical and you combine them to form a new formula &#8211; a formula that can either make an enduring impression or land you into embarrassment. Although there are some basic guidelines to let you play on the safer side and help you avoid creating fashion disasters, you can wear the most outlandish wardrobe by sporting a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bewakoof.com\/men-t-shirts\">trendy t-shirt<\/a> with your favourite pair of denims. But the challenge escalates when it comes to <a title=\"Formal Wear Styles for Men - Bewakoof Blog\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bewakoof.com\/blog\/modern-trousers-for-mens-formal-wear-styles\">formal wear<\/a> game.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.bewakoof.com\/utter\/content\/2723\/content_suit_and_tie_styles.jpg\" alt=\"suit and tie styles - bewakoof blog\" width=\"640\" height=\"720\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Here are some of the classic suit and tie combinations to keep your dressing game on point and make you stand-out from the rest of the lot in your office. The first one is Solid on solid, can also be called as the classic combination. It is easy to wear and works best for every fashion trait. Here, two solid shades are combined which creates a balance. Then comes solid on pattern or vice versa. The best idea is to alternate both styles for a look. This could be a little tricky as striking a harmony between a shade and a pattern needs a keen eye for aesthetics and a whole lot of confidence to carry it. The last one is Pattern on Pattern. This combination is more like Basquiat\u2019s canvas. Different patterns are collated in a manner in which they stand out individually while creating a delightful appearance as a whole. The most important component of formal clothing is a tie. Once you learn to match your tie rightly rest of the components of your ensemble fall into place effortlessly.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s break down the theory of how to wear a tie with some of the common apparels in every man\u2019s wardrobe.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_72 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div
