Pin and chalk stripes are now universally acceptable both in formal and informal settings on a variety of textiles. Once only available as a pattern on suits, the pin striping is now commonly found on dress shirts, casual sport shirts, shorts, casual pants, and even T-shirts!
A few stylish examples might be a pair of slick black dress pants with a fine gauge pin stripe worn with a tapered shirt, or even a light grey pair of jean-cut casual cotton pants with a distressed chalk stripe worn with an ivory sweater, vest, or sport shirt. For more mature gents, the pin stripe patterning could be found in a while dress shirt with royal blue striping, or a black evening suit with wide set, stunning white chalk stripes to add an air of sartorial, classic detailing.
Women are also conquered by the subtle charm of the pattern: pin and chalk stripes can be seen on skirts and dresses, blazers and trousers. While you’re free to match items that you feel going well together, note that the best choice would be wearing a single striped garment, in order to avoid a “too-much” flare.
