The Art of Pairing: Luxury Silk Ties for Every Shirt, Suit & Setting
When it comes to refining your formal wardrobe, it’s not just about wearing the right shirt or suit; it’s about mastering the details. At Blackberrys, we believe that fit is everything, and that principle extends to every accessory you wear. Our curated collection of silk ties is designed not just to complement, but to upgrade your look with elegance and finesse.
So, how do you get it right every time? Here’s your guide to matching Blackberrys men's silk ties with the right shirts, suits, and occasions.
The Shirt & Tie Combo: Setting the Foundation Right
1.White Formal Shirt for Men
Almost any silk tie will work with a white shirt, but to be distinct, reach for a black silk tie with a textured finish. It’s bold, and pairs effortlessly with a black blazer for men or a sharp two-piece suit for men.
For a subtle yet equally commanding look, try a striped silk tie in navy and wine over a white shirt and deep grey suit. The balance of neutrality and colour-blocking keeps the look formal, without being rigid.
2. Black Formal Shirt
Pairing ties with a black formal shirt can be tricky, but not impossible. Stick to solid silk ties in jewel tones like emerald or deep burgundy. These create contrast without clashing. A monochrome black silk tie also works here for evening occasions, particularly under a 3 piece suit for men.
3. Formal Check Shirt or Printed Formal Shirt
When working with prints or patterns, remember the rule: balance is key. If your shirt features checks or prints, let your tie do less. A solid or subtly textured silk tie works best. Opt for shades that pick up minor tones from the shirt—this creates harmony without overpowering the outfit.
Pairing with Suits: Silk Ties That Sharpen the Silhouette
1. Grey or Navy Suits.
These are the most versatile suits in a man’s wardrobe. For grey suits, consider a silk tie in navy, forest green, or even a bold maroon. Pair with solid formal shirts in soft blue or white.
Navy suits, on the other hand, do better with contrast. Think warm-toned ties—rust, gold, or burgundy. A textured silk tie here adds visual depth without disrupting the overall fit.
2. Black Suits and Blazers
A black suit paired with a black silk tie is an iconic combo for formal events. For a softer take, consider pairing it with a printed silk tie with minimalistic design motifs. The Blackberrys tie collection offers a sleek mix of these, each designed to blend seamlessly with formal shirts for men and keep the silhouette sharp.
3. Blazer for Men (Standalone)
If you're going the blazer route, opt for silk ties that bring in a splash of personality. A stripe pattern works well when layered over a solid formal shirt—especially for office semi-formals or after-work cocktails.
Occasion‑Based Pairings
Boardroom & Client Meetings
The code: conservative, clean, confident. Think white or light-blue formal shirt for men, two-piece suit, black or navy silk tie. A black silk tie under a charcoal suit exudes authority.
Weddings & Celebrations
Here you can play. Use richer tones—rust, olive, burgundy—paired with printed silk ties for personality. A russet cleverly printed tie with a cream shirt and a navy blazer balances festivity and elegance.
Semi‑Formal Evenings
A formal check shirt under a blazer, paired with a bold tie, like Navy, yields charm without stiffness. The silk fabric adds luxury while printed patterns keep it lively.
Casual Fridays
Simplify to a chambray shirt and a medium-tone printed silk tie like Tucker Blue. It’s relaxed, yet refined—effortless elegance.
