Grey Suit - Shirt Choice

Question:
What shirt colors match with a grey suit? Thanks!

Reply:
Matching a grey suit should not be a problem. As you have not mentioned any patterns, I will assume that that the suit is a plain grey. The classic combination would of course be white or light blue. The fashionable alternatives today are pink and orange. Pink will work particularly well with grey for the whole shirt or just as an accent shade i.e. a check or stripe. Lots of other possibilities will work with grey, but this should cover the basics.

The Right Suit: Style

Choosing The Right Suit: Style

Color / Pattern

• For entry or mid-level positions, dark grey and navy suits are best.
  
• Black is more formal and austere.
  
• Solid colored suits are best. Subtle stripes are fine. Avoid flashy patterns.
  
• Strong stripes convey authority and are appropriate for higher level positions.

Single vs. Double Breasted

Choose a 2 or 3 button single breasted suit. Double breasted suits will look sloppy
worn open, and are not considered main stream in the corporate climate.

Buttons

• 3-button suits will look best on a taller, slimmer man.
  
• 2-Button suits will have a slimming effect on a shorter, stockier man.
