If you sit back and think about all the formal occasions on which you have been invited, the list is limitless. From black-tie galas and charity events to weddings, soirees to a semi-formal lunches, get-togethers, and more... Every occasion now has a term, and every celebration is subdivided into sub-events that encompass a dress code...

Instead of making this a pleasurable experience... Even for the most laid-back, calm man, getting dressed has become a grueling task.

So we decided to break down this not-so-mysterious task into a series of right white shirts best suited for crucial events.

The term "formal shirt" refers to a shirt that is not your daily casual shirt. Unlike casual shirts, which are cut differently, button-down shirts can be worn with rolled-up sleeves and left untucked. Dress shirts are the complete package, exuding class, flair, and panache. Dress shirts and formal shirts are interchangeable when it comes to dressing for different occasions.

For any Black-Tie Event – A notable charity event |a wedding or even a night at the Oscars! Events like these demand a crisp white shirt, with French cuffs and cufflinks, paired with a black tuxedo or elegant formal jacket and a bow-tie with fitted pants and leather shoes. You can opt for fabrics like cotton, high-end crease-free linen, and cotton-blend shirts from the Kingdom of White. You are sure to get the best options here for those special days. 

Cocktails, among other things… Before you decide to dress up, always check to determine if the event is formal or semi-formal. It is not necessary to wear a suit. A white pristine bespoke Tipple - Wing Collar Shirt when paired with dark trousers. If the occasion calls for it, add a slender silk patterned tie. By including some vintage cufflinks, you can add a touch of class. 

Lounge: Wear a sophisticated but not stiff suit or a waistcoat-tie pair combo with a splash of colour in your pocket square for a morning tête-à-tête, business brunch, or engagement party. You will look great with a Cosmo - Mandarin Collar Concealed Placket Shirt with charcoal grey pants and waistcoat.

Business Casual – This is more akin to what you might wear to work every day.  Wear a sophisticated button-down Routine - Full Sleeves premium cotton shirt with dark slim-fitting jeans and a sports coat or blazer. These are also excellent for job interviews. If you replace the pants with sophisticated khakis, chinos, or dark denim, these can be dressed up or down. Change it up with loafers, brogues, or boat shoes to get the best office-goer look.
