How to choose your shirt?

Slim fit or regular fit, denim or checkered, plain or printed, dressy or casual… Eden Park reveals the complete guide to choosing the right shirt according to your tastes and morphology. Here are some tips to help you find the shirt that's right for you.

Question of size: choose the right shirt

Make sure that you can close your shirt collar, but that you can fit a finger between the shirt collar and your neck. In addition, the seam of the shirt must arrive exactly at the level of the break of the shoulders, and the length of the sleeves just above the base of the thumb. Finally, if you notice any tension on the buttons, your shirt is too tight!

Choose your shirt color

It's about matching your shirt to your outfit, but also to your complexion. To play the safety card, opt for classic colours, white or sky blue for guaranteed flawlessness. Fair complexions will tend towards pastel shades, while tanned complexions can opt for more daring shades, sand or indigo. Red hair can choose warm colors like red, orange, burgundy or even emerald green.

How to choose a men's shirt?

Given the multitude of models that exist in the world of men's shirts, here are some tips to help you make the right choice.

Choose the right shirt according to your morphology

The shirt that will fit you perfectly is above all the shirt that will be impeccably adapted to your morphology. Thus, the thin and slender silhouettes will gladly turn to slim fit models, which will mark the curve of the bust.

Squarer silhouettes will prefer regular fit models that offer more ease while accentuating the line of the shoulders.

Choose your shirt according to the event

For the office, opt for classic models, plain or with a discreet micropattern. For weekends, romantic dates and outings with friends, prints are on the rise! Let your creativity do the talking with a model with a floral, striped or polka-dot pattern.

Which shirt collar to choose?

It is the shape of your face that determines the type of shirt collar to be preferred. Round or square faces will opt for a round neck, such as the French collar or the English collar, with a small opening to elongate the lines of the face. Oval faces will turn to models with Italian or American collars, which claim a large opening that will bring horizontality.

Choosing the right shirt

The choice of the perfect shirt depends above all on the color of your suit. True essentials: the white or sky blue shirt, which will go just as well with your suits ranging from navy to indigo and from light gray to anthracite.

To bring a touch of fantasy to a formal outfit, opt for a model with subtle, tone-on-tone stripes, or a pale pink shirt, which will go perfectly with a gray suit, enhanced with a nice matching tie.

How to choose your women's shirt?

The choice of a women's shirt meets two essential criteria:

Morphology: slim silhouettes and H-shaped morphologies will favor classic straight cuts, while round silhouettes will opt for slightly oversized models. Finally, buxom silhouettes can choose slim fit shirts that will mark the waist and shoulders harmoniously. Style: in terms of fashion, anything goes! Depending on the occasion, we gladly opt for a classic sky blue shirt to wear with jeans, a blazer and loafers, a discreetly patterned shirt to match with dress pants and pumps, or a model with a floral print, perfect with chinos and sandals during the summer. How to choose your white shirt for women?

The ideal white shirt is above all a shirt in which you feel good. Opt for the great classics: a straight cut shirt that is neither too loose nor too tight, which gives you freedom of movement.

Also favor a model of white shirt, neither too short nor too long, so that you can wear your shirt tucked into a skirt or pants, or a loose version over jeans. In terms of material, the cotton shirt remains the essential must-have.

A great classic of the casual wardrobe, the checked shirt is available at Eden Park in a wide range of colors to collect. For an ultra-trendy workwear look, let yourself be tempted by a red checkered shirt, worn over a round-neck t-shirt, raw jeans and a pair of ankle boots. For a style with a preppy and urban spirit, opt for a model with small checks or a shirt with deeper shades, to combine with chinos and a pair of loafers, or raw jeans and a pair of trainers.

Both timeless and casual, the denim shirt stands out for its authenticity. To be sure to choose the perfect model, opt for a shirt that is neither too wide nor too fitted, made from thick, raw denim. It can be worn a little loose, closed or open over a round neck t-shirt, with jeans or cotton trousers to accentuate its terribly relaxed spirit.
