Brown Gets Around
Combining the complicated charm of its grenadine pattern with its simple earth-tone color, this silk tie offers many unique avenues for creating memorable ensembles. When most colors are mixed, they produce brown, and so this tie will pair extremely well with almost any other color. That being said, certain pairings are more likely to produce an exceptional result.
When it comes to shirts, a light blue is a classic and fail-safe option with brown. The cool tone of light blue provides a subtle contrast that allows the richness of the brown tie to stand out. You will achieve a similar effect with dark shades of green and matte lighter green tones. To maximize versatility when it comes to formality, consider a crisp white shirt for a look suitable for both business and more formal social occasions.For a more adventurous but still tasteful look, pair your brown tie with a soft pink shirt or similar warm pastels. This combination works especially well for spring and summer events. Conversely, for a more autumnal effect, consider a cream or beige shirt. Earth tones complement each other naturally, and such a pairing will match the warmth of the brown tie.
For your jacket or suit selection, whether light or dark, a grey suit paired with a brown silk grenadine tie creates an elegant and professional ensemble. Navy offers another classic pairing where the deep blue creates a rich contrast to the earthy brown, suitable for both office settings and special occasions. Unless there is a major tone difference, a brown jacket or suit might appear muddy, but a cream, stone, or tan jacket or suit will have a similar presence while maintain sufficient contrast.
For accessories, like a pocket square, do not feel that they have to include a brown element unless you want them to. In most cases, any color found commonly in nature, such as shades of tans, blues, or greens, will harmonize with the brown, while its warmth will pair with matte or soft warm colors.
Remember, the texture of the grenadine tie adds depth to your outfit, so unless you prefer a more bold effect, keep the rest of your attire relatively simple to let the tie be the focal point.
