Get The Proms Look – ‘Bright Knight’


Super heroes have always been idols to young men around the world for years! We all wanted to dress up as our favourite hero (or villain) at some point in our lives. Unfortunately its unacceptable to go to your prom dressed as Batman so we suggest going as Bruce Wayne in a suit! We’ve given this look the name of ‘Bright Knight’.

Choose a shawl collar suit, the shawl collar is favoured by most guys as its considered by many to be flattering, it will give the appearance of a lean silhouette. Make sure the suit is navy, black will work but navy is much more youthful and on trend!

Go for a simple bright coloured shirt with a small collar, purple, lilac and coral are on trend at the moment and fashionistas have spotted these colours on the cat walks in Italy. 

Pair your shirt with a bright bow tie, self tied will impress but pre tied will be easier to wear on the day. Try and keep the colour of your tie or bow tie very similar in tone with your shirt. We’ve selected purple on lilac.

Don’t overkill the look with bright coloured shoes this isn’t the 70’s and your there to impress! Keep the shoe choice simple, a basic black derby will suit just fine. If you want to really impress then choose a monk strap shoe.

We recommend these products to get the look.

What To Wear To a Prom – Our Guide To Cufflinks


Choosing a cufflink that both matches what you’re wearing to your prom and looks amazing doesn’t have to be a strenuous task. Of course when you’re browsing through websites you’ll be presented with hundreds of shapes, colours, textures and themes. Don’t get overwhelmed! Keep it simple. Stick to these three simple rules when choosing your cufflinks and you’ll be fine.

1. Think about the key aspects of your outfit. For example if you’re going for a monochrome trend then match the cufflinks with the colour of your shirt and tie. This is best achieved with rectangular block colour enamel cufflinks.

2. Don’t under dress your prom outfit. Your prom night is all about glitz and glamour, everyone will be out to impress don’t get left out. Simple round crystal diamantecufflinks will add the necessary glitz to your outfit, they come in various colours so be sure to match them with your bow tie, tie, pocket square or shirt. 

3. Detail is key. If your taste is more classic than contemporary and you’ll be wearing the traditional black suit, white shirt and black tie, then make your accessories the subtle statement of your outfit. Wearing quirky cufflinks like playing cards, dice or large crystal.

Get The Proms Look – ‘Geek Chic’

Be a black tie rebel and go for the ‘Geek Chic’ look for your school prom.

Break away from the black suit, white shirt and black bow tie look. We recommend wearing a light blue or teal suit, keep the shirt plain but jazz up the look with a heritage bow tie and a bright floral pocketsquare.

The heritage bow tie will add texture to the look, and the floral pocketsquare will add depth and colour.

Dont think that the pocketsquare is too ‘girly’ those days are over, you’ll look and feel cool but most of all the girls will love it!

We reccomend these products to get the look.
