men’s corner: pancake collars…

i have always said…it is the small details that can make or break an outfit…and men…there are style mistakes made that greatly affect your “look”…but…never fear…there are easy easy fixes…as well…

take your collar for instance…

when you’re not wearing a tie…the collar on your dress shirt flattens out and sinks beneath the lapels of your jacket…

the look? sloppy…

the solution is simple…first, look for dress shirts with firm collars that stand up on their own, framing your face…

and second…use collar stays…you know, those little plastic things…every proper dress shirt has slots for them…

the look? impressive…

  1. Oh, the second photo looks so much better. The top pic. looks like he might even be sporting the ever cheesy mandarin collar because you can only see the stand!

  2. don’t forget the v-neck Tshirt(undershirt) is a MUST under open neck shirts, 🙂 did you know you can buy really nice metal collar stays at fine men’s stores? you can! 🙂

  3. true true! i didn’t mention the tshirt since i was focusing on the collar stays…
    i did not know about the metal ones…most of my men clients have always used the plastic…i will need to go and check them out…love having different options…thank you!
