The denim shirt

By Ana Balda

Cinco pares de zapatos, una chaqueta de sport, un par de trajes, tres corbatas de seda….. etc…. dicen que son los básicos que tienen que estar en el armario de cualquier hombre que le importe su aspecto. No sé si llegar a tal nivel de concreción hace al hombre más elegante o no. Como siempre, más que de qué, depende de quién. La persona hace a la ropa, no al revés.

Sin embargo, sí hay una pieza que ha llegado a la categoría de básico por derecho propio y que debería estar entre las opciones de casi todos. La mítica camisa vaquera.

Las hay para todos los gustos y en una gran gama de precios. Oscuras o claras. Con bolsillos o sin bolsillos. Una denim shirt, cabe también en el armario de los más clásicos. En ese caso, se tratará de que el corte de la camisa sea la de siempre, y de jugar a que el protagonista sea el tejido denim. Debajo de una chaqueta de tweed, te sentirás el de siempre, incluso algo menos serio y bastante más joven.

Dos recomendaciones:

1. Nunca la elijas demasiado entallada porque perderá todo el encanto.
2. Más importante que la camisa son los zapatos. Por eso, una denim shirt será tu mejor elección si eliges el estilo de este par de Preventi. ¿El resto? Por el color de los zapatos, unos chinos claros. Y siempre, tu mejor sonrisa.

Five pairs of shoes, a sport jacket, two suits, three silk ties….. …. etc, are said to be the basics in the wardrobe of any man who cares about his look. I don’t know if this level of detail makes the man more stylish or not. As always, more than the what, it depends on the who. The person makes the clothes, not vice-versa.

However, there is a piece that is a must by its own and which should be in the closet of almost every man. It is the legendary denim shirt.

There is one for all tastes and in a wide range of prices. Dark or light. With or without pockets.
A denim shirt could also enter into the closet of the more classics. In this case, the most important aspect should be taking care that the cut of the shirt looks the same shape as always, and giving the main role to the denim fabric. Under a tweed jacket, you’ll feel the same as always, although less serious and much younger.

Two recommendations:

1. Never choose too fitted denim shirt. It would lose all its charm.
2. More important than the shirt are the shoes. Therefore, a denim shirt will be your best choice if you choose the style of this pair of Preventis. Something else? Looking at the color of these shoes, light chinos. And, as always, your best smile.
