With shorts and sandals ready to storm our shoe rack, tropical tees ask for clues to the stars in summer 2018. Forget the dubious kettlebell style in Benidorm, aloha tees have made their way onto the runways of Louis Vuitton, DSquared2 or Paul Smith, and their more casual versions can be the wild card on summer days at the office. A linen suit, pretty espadrilles and a straw hat - that's summer.
Remember, wearing
Hawaiian shirts is primarily an attitude.
Let's see what you
think of these that I saw these days in different stores
Hawaiian shirts are
the hardest to buy in men's clothing. The traditional ones that you immediately
think of are only for cruise parents and retirees. If you walk into a bar with
one of them, everyone will know. When you put on the Hawaiian "Island Gift
Shop" T-shirt, you will become a clown. The colors are catchy, the cut is
square and unflattering, and the collar will never hold its shape.
Therefore, when
buying a Hawaiian shirt this year, pay attention to quality.
Here's a fine line
between complete failure and perfect choice. Here are eight Hawaiian shirts
that every man can do.
J. Crewe Island
J. Crew Island
T-shirts are generally a reasonable bet. You have monochrome, striped,
checkered as well as Hawaiian colors. The quality is excellent. 100% natural
materials, slim fit, ruffled sleeves and 50s style neckline. Combine it with
your favorite jeans and you're done.
This 'Island Print'
shirt by J. Crew is a great fit for both the print (vintage island pattern) and
its cut. The cut is narrow, with rolled-up sleeves and an elongated neckline.
This shirt pairs perfectly with lighter denim jeans or a navy suit.
Brooks Brothers
Tropical Print
Yes, this summer
the mega classics Brooks Brothers have released a collection of super fun
Hawaiian tees. I love this print because it is innovative and made from very
fine and fresh linen.
They also have them
in silk and they are beautiful.
Yes, Brooks Brothers
tried their luck with a Hawaiian shirt. And, as expected, of the highest
quality. The print is tropical and bold, and the shirt is structured and built
for durability. If you have a cream-colored linen or silk suit, this will go
perfectly with it.
Polo Ralph Lauren
For lovers of the
classic Hawaiian shirt, this one from Ralph Lauren. It has a buttoned neckline,
sleeveless sleeves and a loose fit. It's perfect for a Friday with friends on
the terrace or even an everyday Friday at the office. It seems a little wide to
me, but it tastes like color.
Once again, here is
an American menswear classic that best conveys the Hawaiian shirt. This time
it's Polo Ralph Lauren, but the same thing happens. It is a bold pattern with
great texture. The collar is buttoned up and the sleeves are not rolled up,
making this shirt perfect for everyday office friday.
Suitable fabric
Here's the perfect
shirt for the monochrome black and white Hawaiian shirt lovers. My favorite is
this one from Japanese firm Proper Cloth, it has a classic edge, nothing
eccentric and elegant.
You can wear it
with simple black jeans or chinos and this summer you'll be ready for any
formal or informal event.
Here's the perfect
Hawaiian shirt for a solid color man. If you love wearing black even in hot
weather, this shirt is the right fabric for you. This is a classic and elegant
pattern applied to the finest fabric; And for a few extra dollars (literally
just $ 10 or $ 15 for most add-ons), you can customize every detail of the
shirt, from collar to buttons.
