Shirts with Kent collar

Level 5 Kent collar shirt

The Kent collar comes from England and was named after the English Duke of Kent. It is stunningly elegant and easy to combine. You could even say that the Kent collar embodies the English style: it is aristocratic, elegant and stylish. In one word – classic!
Button-down collar, cutaway collar, Eton collar, Windsor collar – with this selection, it is easy to lose track. Yet this small outfit detail has an enormous effect on the overall appearance. A correctly chosen collar makes the look appear harmonious and emphasizes the wearer's advantages. In addition, the collar determines which tie and which knot can be worn with the shirt. The Kent collar undoubtedly suits everyone, but it looks particularly flattering on long, narrow faces. Since the collar can visually “lengthen” well, it is also well suited to round or very distinctive faces.

Combined with a suit and tie or with a leather jacket, the shirt with Kent collar looks great for every occasion. It is impossible to combine such a shirt incorrectly – it simply goes with every pair of trousers and every blazer, an indispensable basic.
If you are already getting a business shirt with Kent collar , then preferably in a neutral color such as white, light blue or brown – that way you immediately have several looks and can combine your shirt as you like. And if it is meant to be a casual shirt, then prints and patterns are welcome. Such models look excellent with chinos or used-look jeans and appear modern, yet not exaggerated. By the way, these combinations can be worn at any age.

• Among other options, a single-button blazer should be combined with shirts with Kent collar. A slim tie looks excellent with it in the overall outfit. This combination is ideal for a formal occasion.
• The two-button blazer is also a good partner for a shirt with Kent collar. This outfit is mainly worn in the office or at a business dinner. Do not forget: the top button must always remain fastened; before sitting down, the lower button must be opened.
• The three-button blazer can be worn perfectly with a shirt with Kent collar, both in business settings and in leisure time. The only requirement - in everyday business wear, the top and middle buttons remain fastened. In leisure time, of course, the blazer can also be worn open.

Kent collar and tie: What goes well together?

The good news for everyone who likes to keep it simple: all ties, all knots and all bow ties look good with the Kent collar. Your taste alone decides how you tie your tie with a shirt with Kent collar. By the way, the perfect choice would be the simple Windsor knot. Two classics get along perfectly: the elegant Windsor knot needs space, and the spread (that is, the distance between the collar points) of the Kent collar is ideally matched to this knot. That way, you never feel restricted.
Slim knots too, such as the Four-in-Hand, go perfectly with a shirt with Kent collar, because the collar ends taper to a pointed and broad shape.
Overall, slim and elongated knots go best with the Kent collar. The rule is – simplicity is always a good idea!

Kent collar or cutaway collar?

Kent collar shirt Marvelis

A collar gives every look the finishing touch. Even minimal differences, such as the height of the collar, can already say something about the effect of the outfit. If the shirt has a high collar, the look immediately appears much more formal.
Hardly any other collar shapes are more debated than the Kent collar and the cutaway collar. Both are indispensable in the office, both are equally elegant and stylish. And yet there are decisive differences. The ends of a Kent collar are pointed, while the ends of a cutaway collar are cut back much farther. This “small detail” is crucial, for example, in situations where negotiation skills are required. A Kent collar makes the wearer appear more reserved than a cutaway collar and is therefore not recommended for important appointments.
However, if you have an informal dinner with partners in the evening, then a shirt with Kent collar is more appropriate. It can also be worn without a tie and can quickly transform the outfit from business to casual.
But the dispute “Kent collar or cutaway collar” has come to an end. Because for fashion-conscious men who want a classic look, there is a hybrid form of both collar types - the New Kent collar. Unlike the Kent collar, this type is not as wide as the cutaway collar, but also less pointed than the Kent collar.
