The Gentleman in Pink

Washed-out pink is the best place to start if one is partaking in pink for the first time. Like dark blue, light gray, and khaki, it can be paired with almost anything. T-shirts and hats are both flexible pieces that you can play around with to get used to the color and how to apply it. From there, you can venture into larger pieces and darker and bolder pinks. With Formalwear, start with a tie or pocket square to your dark suits with a solid white shirt for a clean background. Once again, play around with it till it feels right.

Once pink feels natural you can move into bolder pieces. A light pink striped seersucker suit is ideal for warm weather parties. You can dress it up with a tie and dark brown loafers or you can dress it down with sneakers and a polo. Pink embroidered slippers or Belgian loafers look as great with jeans and a blazer as they do with a three-piece suit. A pink Native American print CPO jacket gives a beachy-western vibe that is bold yet undeniably cool. The possibilities are limitless. Just play around with it and feel it out. Pink is there to have some fun with your outfit so don’t take it too seriously.
