The Print Rule · Year-End Edition

Festive, Not Fancy Dress

Year-end brings three invites: the office party, the dinner & dance and a holiday weekend. Our print rule still holds: the smaller the print, the more formal the shirt. At year-end, add one more: one festive thing per outfit. Everything else, plain.

Until Wednesday 25 November, get a free IMPACT cap with orders over S$300 (RM1,000 in Malaysia). Add the cap to your cart and it's free at checkout.

01Look 01 · Small print, one festive thing

The Office Party

Collar 14.5–16. For 16.5 and up, see Look 02.

Across the room it reads as a neat print. Up close, it's polar bears. That's your one festive thing, so everything else stays plain: black trousers, no novelty tie. The flexi-cuff takes the Silver Bear Cufflink if you want the joke to carry on at the wrist.

02Look 02 · Every collar size

The Office Party, on the cuff

The festive thing moves to your cuff.

A tonal navy leaf print that sits easily at a work party, in every collar size from 14.5 to 17.5. The festive part is the Silver Bear Cufflink on the flexi-cuff: noticed when you raise a glass, out of sight the rest of the night.

03Look 03 · Mid-scale print

The Year-End Dinner

No tie, jacket on the chair.

A mid-scale print does the talking at the dinner & dance, so leave the tie at home. Italian cotton with a silky finish catches the restaurant light, and the Jetsetter trousers resist spills and give a little at the waist after the buffet.

The Year-End Dinner, quieter

The same rule in a warmer print.

The same mid-scale rule in a warmer brown geometric on Italian fabric, for the dinner where you'd rather be remembered for the conversation than the shirt.

The Holiday Weekend

Short sleeve, relaxed, untucked.

Go big for the weekend away: short sleeve, relaxed fit, worn untucked. Pack one print for the day and one for dinner, and keep the shorts plain. One print per outfit, so only one gets to be the star.
