Can you wear pin striped pants and a checked shirt together?

Shirt is purple, pants are gray.

 

[RoJoHen]

I would say yes, depending on the size and pattern of both the pinstripes and the checks.

This thread is useless without pictures (and not because I'm pervert). I need to see it to judge. As with everything related to fashion, you can do almost anything, if you know what you are doing.

But generally speaking, I can't think of any good reason why you should wear a checked shirt. Ever.

For some reason Beetlejuice popped into my mind.

You can wear WHATEVER YOU WANT!

[The Boy Who Cried Worf]

I am still wondering why anybody would want to wear either of them separately.

Someone better turn on the Holdfast signal!

[Captain_Nick]

I can, but I don't.

 

[Capn Flukie]

Still no Holdfast?

Time to activate the EMH...

 

[Lookingglassman]

teh baba???

 

[Kestra]

Wear whatever you want, who cares?

I think that should read "Fashion Emergency."

Yes, with caveats. You must have a small build; a large build will make it too loud. and you must wear suspenders. It will add extra vertical lines to bring the shirt in line with the pinstripes on the pants.

This.

 

[Lt_Rowy]

The patterns clash...stick with the pants but go with a plain shirt...

Sure you can. Doesn't mean you should.

Don't forget the bow tie. Bow ties are cool.

I'll second that.

Generally, I'd say yes if the purple shades of the shirt are similar so that the whole shirt is "subtle".

I dispute the validity of that claim.
