Three Stylish Outfits for Graphic Print T-Shirts
The graphic tee is one of the most ubiquitous items in men’s fashion. Just about anyone who puts effort into choosing what they wear likely has an entire closet full of graphic t-shirts, as they are extremely versatile and often serve as an introduction to men’s fashion for those who are trying to flesh out a wardrobe. While the graphic tee can be effective when worn just on its own, there are plenty of different ways to incorporate it into a more robust ensemble. From dressy scenarios to the most casual of situations, the graphic tee can come in handy when employed correctly. The following are just three ways to build an ensemble around a graphic tee, all of which are worth experimenting with.
Dressed-Down and Basic
The most popular (and perhaps most effective) way to wear a graphic tee is in a dressed-down, basic manner, which can be very attractive on the right person. While this look often appears effortless, it’s important to put a little bit of work into getting it perfect. Start with a pair of dark-washed designer jeans; the cut doesn’t matter so much, as long as it is suitable to your frame. Next, choose a graphic tee that adds contrast, avoiding blues and any other colors that might clash with the jeans. The fit is essential in this case, as the t-shirt itself will be the item that draws the most attention; proper fit is that which is snug, but not tight. You can close off this ensemble with a pair of boat shoes, which will add a touch of class to this dressed-down and basic ensemble.
Classy, Yet Casual
Just because the graphic tee is a standby doesn’t mean that it can’t be worn as part of a classy outfit. In fact, graphic t-shirts are ideal for those who are looking to dress up while still maintaining a casual element. You can start by choosing either dark-washed designer jeans or charcoal dress pants, both of which are capable of connoting class without taking things beyond the casual phase. Choose a neutral-colored graphic tee, layering it with either a blazer or leather jacket. This is a great way to draw attention to the graphic on the t-shirt; a useful trick that many people don’t pick up on until spending quite a bit of time paying attention to men’s fashion. Finish the ensemble off with a pair of loafers or driving shoes, which will further prove that you know how to look stylish without being overly serious.
Fall and Winter
Just because the temperatures begin to fall doesn’t mean you can’t still rock a graphic t-shirt every once in a while. During the fall and winter, start thinking about pairing your t-shirt with big, chunky knitted v-neck sweaters, which will keep you warm yet still allow the graphic on your tee to take center stage. Think brown corduroys for pants, paired with a rugged pair of brown leather boots. Add to this the options you have available in terms of accessories (gloves, scarves, hats etc), and it becomes clear that there are a great deal of different ways to make this outfit work in your advantage.
