How to rock the chequered style

 

No need to sell you on the merits of checks in your daily outfits. Everyone will agree that they’re an easy way to wear a bit of pattern; and there’s a chequered style for everyone, from preppy to neutral. Plus, while the look may seem casual, almost every type of check can be smartened up. On the other hand, if you understand the rules of engagement, checks have a good habit of making you look refined by default and it’s a partnership you’ll covet for the rest of your life. Baaqoo presents some simple tips to style those checks!

The Flannel Shirt

Flannel shirts are typically offered in chequered prints, but they’re also available in plain varieties. Events, such as a date or dinner, can be a good time to wear a flannel shirt in a smart casual manner. Just be sure to aim for a neat and polished presentation. It’s all about how you wear it and what you wear it with. Of course, the style will always make for a great, weekend look, but there are other occasions when you can wear one.

Gingham Checks

A neat, tight chequered pattern that becomes almost mottled to the eye at distance, gingham is typically a medium-weight plain-woven cotton yarn, although in the summer you’ll see plenty of linen blends. Thought to have originated in northern France, gingham was made almost exclusively by Manchester mills in the 18th century. Popularised by mods in the sixties, it’s nevertheless suitable for work and play. Its colours are often bright, which makes it a good option for layering. (Fashionbeans)

Large Chequered Outfits

The larger the check, the more casual—which means this shirt is best worn with jeans and trainers or boots, or open over a t-shirt. Go for an oversized fit to make it extra boxy and comfortable.

Baaqoo suggests that a small chequered style can look quite smart, while a large one is more casual. Somewhere in the middle will make for the most versatility.
