How to avoid making a gingham check shirt coordinate look wild?
Gingham checks are made up of two colors, with the vertical and horizontal sides of the grid evenly spaced. However, in order to coordinate a shirt without making it look drab, it is important to choose items that focus on the color scheme and the size of the pattern, which are the decisive factors for the impression. Generally speaking, large-patterned shirts are difficult to make look beautiful and mature because the colored yarns are more dominant than the white yarns, which are the base color, and the contrast is too strong. They also have a strong casual look and are not suitable for formal styling. On the other hand, a fine gingham check with a modest pattern and not too much contrast can be worn with any item without being obtrusive. If you want to add a good casual look to a suit or jacket, a gingham check shirt with a fine pattern is a good choice. Of course, a large-patterned gingham check shirt is not a bad idea as a gimmick or a tricky move to add to a dressy style, but a fine-patterned gingham check shirt can be worn smartly and without failure and will not make you look dowdy.

A white and black gingham check shirt with a fine pattern and slim-fit white denim for a stylish and clean look
Marco Zambardo, a regular fashion snapper, chose a black and white gingham check shirt with a fine pattern, which is one of the most sophisticated types of gingham, and paired it with slim-fit white denim and black tasseled loafers. The ankle-length white denim and barefoot loafers create a casual atmosphere, while the pairing of the gingham check shirt and white denim creates a clean monotone summer style. Eyewear and aviator sunglasses in place of catsuits around the face are also smartly designed without any blandishments.

Pair a red and black buffalo check shirt, which is different from the white-based gingham check shirt, with skinny fit black denim
Mr. Nick Viall differentiates his white base color gingham check shirt from the red and black buffalo check shirt, a staple of American casual style, and wears it with skinny-fit black denim and brown leather boots. The overall look is a clean, lean, I-shaped silhouette, which is masculine and stylish without being overbearing. The choice of a buffalo check shirt with two breast pockets that gives off a workmanlike atmosphere is a nice change from the gingham check shirt, which is suited to a clean look.
