How to Nail Smart Casual Style for Men (The Ultimate Guide) Often considered the most elusive code for men to pin down and definitively describe, the smart casual dress is often misunderstood, sometimes overplayed, but never resolved to obsolescence. Primarily because so many men believe that they have captured the look, there are so many ways in which to describe the look and – depending on your personal sense of style – to achieve it. The smart casual style is one dress code that has now come as close to the forefront of fashion as it can get without overtaking formal business attire and for many men it is not as easy to ascertain which route to take and many fear of getting it wrong.

There are more men who are incorporating the look at work, however, making it all the more important that men learn all the components necessary to master the look. This guide was made to help you navigate through the pitfalls and how to confidently assemble smart casual dress for any occasion. What is a Smart Casual Dress Code? The definition of smart casual is so relaxed in some and restrained in others, encompassing anything more polished than a tracksuit to just before a formal suit and tie. It combines elements of well-fitted business wear with more casual options like chinos and dress pants, tees and polos, dark denim, practical footwear, blazers and more. Although you should be comfortable in casual style clothes, the trick is to avoid a look that is too casual and loose-fitting. With smart casual, men should pair finer quality apparel with great fabrics that are on trend and in style for the occasion. In essence, the smart casual approach is just a notch under a business casual or business professional look. How to Nail the Smart Casual Aesthetic. The best way to nail the smart casual aesthetic is to swap smart pieces for casual ones and vice versa so that there’s a balance of smart and casual garments in your getup. It takes time, but after a while you get a feel for what’s casual and what leans smart. A prime example is wearing a sharkskin suit with sneakers. A sharkskin suit is ultra formal, thus smart and a pair of white sneakers are quite casual. That’s a 50/50 balance and thus a perfect smart casual look. This type of contrast in formality allows for it to work. If you’re leaning too far in one direction, it’s not so much a balance of smart casual, but rather just smart or casual. I’d say, if you have a pretty firm grasp on your personal style and what makes up good style then trust your instincts and use your best judgement. Don’t think too long and hard about it. If it feels right, it probably is and vice versa. In the end smart casual has been said to be a mood or an attitude rather than just the amalgamation of individual articles of clothing. As a refresher, I put together some bullet points on dressing taller and some key elements of smart casual style. The Key Elements of Smart Casual Style. Emphasis on tailoring High-low aesthetic (e.g. trainers & sharkskin suit) Embrace simplicity and minimalism Dark color schemes (lean more formal and thus smart) Texture (wool, tweed, flannel, linen) The blazer (single easiest way to smarten up a casual look) How to Wear Smart Casual Style. The fact that casual dress codes have moving markers requires that men constantly stay up to date on where the goalposts are in order to avoid the pratfalls that are associated with the look. Some of the consistent points to remember with dressing smart casual is that it is more important to consider the pieces that you wearing and how you can pair them together to achieve the look you are aspiring to. Even with this approach, however, there are some do’s and don’t that come with wearing the smart casual style. Smart Casual Do’s. 1. Do ask for assistance. There is no shame in requesting help if needed, and that is where we come in as well as personal shoppers that can assist you in starting out. It does not cost a fortune to look good and men that ask the tough questions now will save themselves from mistakes down the road. 2. Dress up, not down. When in doubt, you should always be above the fray as opposed to below it. That means dressing up so that you stand out for all the good reasons. It is always easier to take one thing off when overdressed than to solve a sartorial snafu with minimal attire. 3. Find your fit. This is arguably the best approach to the smart casual style as how you wear your trousers, blazers and shirts together can make or break an outfit. Once you have found the proper fit, remember your sizing and use it as a safeguard to maintaining proper smart casual protocol. 4. Know the value of blazers. Men should always have on standby a neutral colored blazer that has been tailored to perfection that can effortlessly take you from smart to business casual and even out of the office into the evening. 5.
