A beige suit pairs well with a blue chambray shirt.


Beige, following navy and gray, is gaining attention as a summer color. Because it combines both dressy and casual elements, it's an ideal color for increasingly casual business styles. Fujita wears this beige in a six-button double-breasted suit. Instead of a white shirt, he's opted for a blue chambray shirt with a tie, resulting in a dressed-down look that's perfectly acceptable in the office. The suit is made of a sturdy wool and linen blend fabric, with Neapolitan tailoring featuring hand-stitched lapels. The shirt has a tab collar, a style typically worn in British formal wear, but the use of a more casual material gives it a relaxed feel, making it a good match for the beige suit. The small-patterned tie has a vintage-style print, and when peeking out from the narrow V-zone, a pattern with this much impact makes a statement.

What is the only condition under which a patterned shirt paired with a patterned tie is acceptable?
