Revamp Your Suit Style with These Three Stylish Shirts: Tab Collar, Cleric, and Pinhole Collar Shirts

A dress suit outfit can look very different with just a subtle V-zone arrangement. In this issue, we introduce “shirts that can add a twist to a basic suit outfit!

Before getting creative with shirts. First, let’s review the standard shirts that go with suits!

First, let’s take a quick look at the standard shirts that go with suits. In the dress suit style, which is based on a modest, nonchalant approach to dressing, the most common shirts are plain white or saxe blue, and “regular collar,” “wide collar,” or “semi-wide collar. Incidentally, the term “shirts” is often used to refer to shirts that go with suits, but it is a Japanese word that originated in the Meiji era (1868-1912) when the English term “white shirt” was mispronounced. The term “shirts” is not understood in other countries, so it is important to keep it in mind.

If you want to add a twist to a basic suit outfit with a shirt, look at these three types of shirts!

We will introduce three types of shirts that are used by veteran suit wearers to add a stylish finishing touch to a basic suit outfit!

1) “Tab collar shirt

The tab collar shirt lifts up the knot of the tie to give the V-zone a three-dimensional look and a touch of glamour. It is called a tab collar because of the tab connecting the left and right collars. While wearing mainly solid colors is simple and clean, it tends to give a fluffy impression, so it is recommended to counteract this by incorporating a tab collar. As shown in the snapshot below, dimples can be incorporated to create a V-zone with more depth.

(2) “Cleric Shirt

The cleric shirt refers to a shirt with a plain white collar and cuffs and a solid-colored or patterned body, and is recognized as formal wear approved by the British royal family since Prince Charles wore it at his wedding in 2005. If the body of the shirt has a striped pattern, you are sure to achieve a suit style that is full of elegance and fearlessness.

3) “Pinhole collar shirt

Like the tab collar shirt, the pinhole collar shirt lifts the knot of the tie to create a three-dimensional effect. There is a hole at the end of the collar through which a pin can be threaded to lift the knot of the tie. Because the pin fittings can add a decorative touch, the V-zone can look more gorgeous and dressy than with a tab collar. This is a good choice for parties, such as wedding receptions, when you want to add a touch of glamour.
