Looking for inspiration on how to pair this suit.
Hello!
Hope you all are doing well. I was wondering if any of you all can help me with some inspiration on what type/color shirt to wear with the following suit. I bought both the pants and the blazer. I currently have black loafers and a black belt but I feel like it's too binary (B/W) of I wear a white shirt. Not sure if I'm overthinking this. I have a white shirt.
Vancouver, BC
Hopefully something under CAD $200.
This is for a semi formal cocktail party that's in a week.

Thanks in advance for the help.
Cheers!

I have a couple of ideas that
1. Full suit with a darker shirt/pocket square and black loafers
2. Above Blazer/black trousers/darker color shirt (not really sure which one hopefully something with a nice pattern) / black loafers.
3. Full suit/plain white shirt/pocket square/black loafers
funnily enough this got brought up very recently
Really? Hope it's not a repost or something

'semi-formal' depends on who is asking but in my opinion, either white/light shirt and black pants or dark knit and matching suit pants would be my rec
BR would probably have the black pants or turtleneck for under 200, plus stores like j.crew, gap, even uniqlo amongst others
I have a pair of woolen trousers in black.
it might be worth putting the actual fit together to be sure but it sounds like a decent idea
in terms of inspo you can look up fits also feel free to look up fits (discord search in particular from ethan (sioku), who often wears double breasted suits, but also the.virt and shrimp_my_ride
I am still waiting on the suit to get delivered. Hoping to try them mid next week.
Oh cool. Thanks. I'll take a look.
I'd look for a colorful scarf.
(but I just love colorful scarfs)
