First dates can be a clothing challenge for men. Deciding what to wear on the important first date is as important for men as it is for women and sets the standard for a future date.
What a man wears the first time he goes out with a woman is important because it shows his level of respect for his date. The second important point is that the man should dress according to where they will be going.
Shoes make the man, and women are just as focused on men’s shoes as they are on their own. For lunch or dinner, a pair of well-shined shoes is always in style. Another rule of thumb is that the shoes and belt should match. For more casual dates, a more casual shoe works fine. Sandals are rarely acceptable. Socks should match the slacks and be a slightly darker shade.
Irish parship believes that the first date is special, so slacks and a dress shirt at lunch or dinner is always in style. A shirt with some color in it sharpens the look—but keep the color subdued. A sports jacket is always a nice touch.
The one indispensable accessory for a man is a good wrist watch. If the watch has a leather band, it should match the color of the shoes and belt.
There are some general dress items that also need to be covered. Clothes should fit properly—even if it means alterations. The first impression counts when the goal is to find love. Do wear cologne—keep it mild and pick out a unique scent that is subtle. Grooming is especially important for a man—from hair, to teeth, to fingernails.
Most importantly, the man needs to dress in a way that reflects his personality and who he is.
