You mention dress shirts I would add to that ‘French Cuff shirts’ which can be worn casually without a tie. They need to be worn with cufflinks – These dress shirts really make you stand out from the crowd. Make sure its nicely ironed – use starch if possible!

It really depends on the company. Within my high school, you had the people who dressed up for school (i.e., actually put on a shirt), the people who dressed up for school (i.e., nice clothes), the people who dressed sharply (i.e., button-downs, ties, vests), and the people who wore a matched suit fairly regularly.

I would like to see more information on style for grad students. As a young scientist, I would like to come across as well-dressed, but also let the essential “nerdiness” of my career show through.

I’m a Ballroom Instructor and I need some spice for my suits and tie formula. I’m definitely getting pocket squares but I need some more options. My wardrobe has to be as nice as possible, I’m catering to very well to do clients. I want to look modern and stylish yet somehow be appealing to a conservative client. Great article by the way, covered every avenue and brought out the details.

Can you perhaps elaborate on office wear in the summer. I agree with the necessity of blazers and such but in the summer heat that can get pretty uncomfortable.
Are there any lighter but stylish options for warmer climates?

I know this post is old, but how do you feel about pocket squares with sport coats? I wear them with suits and blazers but I feel weird wearing them with tweed and other like materials.

Thanks for the info, but the real question is where can I buy the clothes mentioned?

I enjoyed this article, as I too am working on my personal style. The only thing I don’t agree with is the chinos suggestion. When I see someone walking with chinos, I can instantly tell that they had purchased it at the Gap, etc. I feel that chinos should only be worn by someone who has earned it (via military service) or inherited it. Just the opinion of someone who has earned chinos the hard way.

I’d really like to read an article about an early-20s guy, into his first job, trying to get into a PhD program. I graduated with a 4 year degree, and absolutely no sense of fashion. I’m currently working in a research lab with others about my same age and experience, but I want to go onto a doctorate program. Your article was a good start, but I’m just not knowledgeable about this stuff to make some good, informed decisions without a few more details.
