How to Style Patterned Button-Up Shirts

Pair a patterned button-up shirt with solid trousers or shorts, then use layers and accessories to suit the occasion. Start with the colors in the print and clothing you already own.

Choose a solid base

Try navy, black, cream or khaki trousers with a patterned shirt. Picking one color from the shirt for the rest of the outfit is another option. There is no single correct combination; use these ideas as a starting point.

Add a layer when it suits the weather

Try the shirt over a plain T-shirt, or wear it beneath a jacket. Check the shirt's measurements and leave the amount of room you prefer for layering. Material and fit vary by style, so review the exact product details.

Match the occasion

Shorts and casual footwear are options for relaxed plans. Chinos and a simple belt offer another combination. For a workplace, wedding or other event with a dress code, check the host's requirements before choosing an outfit.

How should a patterned shirt fit?

The fit you prefer is personal. Compare the garment measurements for the selected shirt with a shirt you already own, allowing for how you plan to wear it. Consult the sizing guide or ask for help if information is missing.
