A wardrobe that has it all for a linen business outfit

• Your wardrobe has to be a combination of light and dark colours – white, beiges, ecrus and sky blue are considered classy for work. Same goes for black, navy blue and darker shades of grey, because these are also good for office.
• Stripes and checks in shirts are considered suitable for office and you can choose them in various colours. However, it is best that you stick to pinstripes and small checks.
• You need at least a handful of mens long sleeve linen shirts and you will also need a few short sleeve linen shirt options as well.
• Coming to trousers – in order to complete any look, you will need trousers as well and we bring to you a huge range of linen trousers for men in various colours, sizes and fits.

Stock up on those long sleeve linen shirts for men

• Have at least one white long sleeve linen shirts, because this is a shirt that will work for almost all kinds of formal events, including conferences and business meetings.
• A black full sleeve shirt is also a good option to have in your wardrobe, because that too is something that will work in all kinds of formal situations, especially dinner meetings.
• Having a selection of light-coloured shirts, such as sky blue, beige, ecru and mocha would also make sense, because these are all considered formal or business colours.
• However, adding a few dark colours such as dark green, navy blue and even shades of maroon could add some colour to your collection.
