Mannequin #1 (Casual Work Look):
American Apparel: purple (eggplant) polo shirt, white t-shirt (under polo); Club Monaco: "Wallace Pant-4" cargo pant; Macy's: ADIDAS black/white "Samba" sneakers
Rules:
- The purple shirt complements Matt's light eyes and brings color near the face.
- A comfortable pair of cargo pants gives ease of movement and completes this casual look.
Mannequin #2 (Professional Look for Public Appearances):
Seize Sur Vingt boutique: NYC "Manolo Ray" Navy Blue button-front shirt w/multi-color pinstripes; Zara: brown corduroy sport coat; Club Monaco: "Jean 1-DP I" jean; Banana Republic: brown belt; Camper Boutique, NYC: "Ideal" (brown ankle boots w/perforated leather and laces)
Rules:
- A striped button-front shirt with a sport coat looks professional. When paired with jeans and a soft-soled leather shoe it conveys comfort, but is still a pulled together, authoritative look.
Mannequin #3 (Out on the Town with His Wife): Zara: white button-front shirt, black tweed trousers; Banana Republic: black v-neck sweater; Cole Haan Stores: black leather loafers
Rules:
- A simple combination of a white button-front shirt underneath a fitted black v-neck sweater creates a nice lean line in the torso; and paired with tweed trousers appears dressy without being too fussy.
- A leather shoe completes the look.
