The Perfect Touch of Bottle Green
A clear sign that you have mastered the Black Tie Dress Code is your ability to subtly and elegantly inject color into your ensemble while maintaining the gravity expected of formal evening dress codes. This color, indicative of your personality and suited to the occasion, is best added through unobtrusive accessories like your bow tie, pocket square, or boutonniere.
These bottle green socks provide the perfect touch of color and unexpected visual interest to harmonize with a stately pocket square, or to set off a boutonniere. It’s also ideal for holiday parties, as the rich green sets of tartan dinner jackets and other garments and accessories typical of the festive season, including a matching cummerbund and bow tie set under the correct circumstances.
How to Wear These Bottle Green Formal Socks
Formal socks are necessary for formal dress codes like Black Tie, White Tie, and morning wear, although colorful varieties like these are best reserved for Festive and similarly more casual Black Tie occasions. They should be worn with opera pumps, formal evening slippers, patent leather or similarly formal oxfords, or formal dress boots. Because these socks are so sublimely thin and breathable, some of our customers also enjoy wearing them in warm and hot weather to keep their feet cool.
Formal Sock Etiquette
For conventional Black Tie, White Tie, or morning wear occasions, for which higher degrees of formality are expected, you should wear. On certain occasions, including events for which the dress code is Creative Black Tie, Festive Black Tie, or something similar, however, you have the opportunity to bend formal conventions and add vivacity to your look with colorful formal socks.
The bottle green of these socks is perfectly acceptable for all but the most formal Black Tie events. Whether harmonizing with other colorful accessories in your ensemble, setting off a toned dinner jacket, or serving as unexpected visual interest, these elegant socks will be right at home at the office holiday party with a tartan dinner jacket, ringing in the New Year at a swanky gala in a tuxedo, or when you are hosting friends at home in a decadent smoking jacket.
