If you’re looking to add detail and colour to your outfits, patterns such as checks are a fail-safe way to get the job done. With its simple pattern, gingham hints at a playful, carefree spirit, which may be why it’s a common sight on jumpsuits and rompers. To prevent an all-over application from looking excessive, delicate accessories are all you need to complete the ensemble. For the gents, we know picking out tops and bottoms in plain colours for the office day after day can be tedious—a check pattern on a shirt or a pair of trousers breaks up the monotony of a colour-blocked or otherwise monochrome outfit. Far from being associated with picnic mats and retro charm, these prints are just what you need to get yourself checked out.
