How to match socks with a suit and achieve a flawless look

Matching shoes with socks when wearing a suit can sometimes be a challenge. It's difficult to find the right balance between not looking too plain and not being too casual.

The line that separates originality from conventionality is thin, but today we are going to teach you how to master it by applying 3 simple rules with which, besides achieving more solid outfits, you will save a lot of time when getting dressed each morning.

There are 3 mistakes you make when matching socks with your shoes and your suit that can completely ruin your personal image. The last one is the most serious and the one most people make, so stay until the end to avoid it.

Rule number 1: Wear socks that are long enough.

Let's start with the first rule, which is the most basic one: choosing socks that are long enough. When pairing socks with a suit, it's important to pay attention to their length.

 Socks should always be long enough to cover the entire leg when sitting. The skin of the leg should never be visible. Make sure they are long enough to cover your entire leg.

Rule number 2: Choose prints or less flashy colors 

The second rule will save you from awkward moments at the office when wearing socks with a suit. There is nothing worse than choosing socks with prints and excessively bright colors to wear with a classic suit.

In formal or semi-formal dress codes, less is more, especially when choosing accessories like pocket squares, ties, and especially socks. Choose more subdued prints and colors to ensure an optimal finish.

We'll talk about the color of the sock in the next point, but as for the print, try to make them very subtle, such as the polka dot or spot pattern from our basics line with dot patterns.

Rule number 3: Socks the same color as the pants, yes or no?

Let's go with the last rule, which is the most important and the one that few people know and especially implement, and it is none other than the color of your socks. You might think it doesn't have much significance, but it is key for a good outfit.

You should choose socks the color of your suit, mainly for one reason: because it will lengthen your silhouette, correcting imperfections and making you look much taller thanks to that monochromatic visual effect.
