would black oxfords be better if im wearing a black belt?
ah I see I see, thank you!!
The tie is gonna be personal preference tbh the floral would look fine but i wouldn’t personally go with it. If the floral print makes you happy i say go for it. With a navy suit i would personally do brow belt and derbies but black will look fine too
oh, many thanks for the advice;
what tie would you recommend instead, which would go well with the suit and black/brown shoes?
Navy is a pretty easy color to pair with a classic combo is maroon. I have a nice powder blue pattern tie i normally pair with my navy suit.
Like i said though its prom, nothing wrong with doing a fun tie, floral is just a little dated these days.
Ah, thank you so much!!
Have fun at prom! One school of thought on prom is "go have fun, do whatever."
If you were to ask me how I would dress a navy suit, it would be brown, burgundy, or black shoes (derbies or oxfords - I prefer oxfords), either in calf or shell cordovan, with a matching belt (easy for black, harder for other colors unless you buy from the same manufacturer). For a tie I'd pick something on the more casual side, but whether it's louder and partier or more subtle would depend on my mood. Standard white dress shirt, and a pocket square would be nice.
The question I would really ask is: What do you already own? I don't want to tell you to go out and spend money.
Hi! Im so sorry for the late reply, had to prepare for some exams coming up so didn't use discord as much
these are the ones i currently have, im thinking of going for the striped one with a complementing pocket square
my dad has a solid navy and a few paisley ties but dont think theyd go with my outfit
