Black: Mysterious and Powerful

There is an air of mystique around black - the color of night, the color of the universe, the color that absorbs all light. When worn right a tailor made shirt sporting this color lends a sort of authority to the wearer; exuding power, confidence and style.

Black shirts like their white counter parts are quite versatile. While it is best to skip wearing a black shirt at work, it is a safe bet on an evening out on even while sporting a casual look.

The casual black: Custom made with the right fabric, a black shirt is an excellent choice while carrying off a casual look. Consider a black and white hounds tooth patterned custom shirt worn over denims or perhaps a black and white gingham bespoke shirt worn over chinos.

The evening black: When worried about what to sport for a dinner do, black is a safe bet. Opt for a personalized Egyptian Giza cotton black shirt, over slim fit steel grey trousers. Better still if the black shirt is custom-made with French cuffs, sport it with subtle silver cufflinks to add a touch of elegance to your ensemble.
