For some of us, the contrast collar dress shirt harkens back to the 80s—you know, the days of Michael Douglas and Charlie Sheen in Wall Street, where white collars on a colored dress shirt equalled power broker. Later, not so powerful. But, it seems, the look is back—and gaining popularity both across the pond and in the good old US of A. How to wear it? Carefully, very carefully. No, seriously—just the way you’d wear any dress shirt, and don’t be afraid of pattern on the body of the shirt either. Your best tie bet? Something bold and and in a complimentary color —and the knot should be a thick one—like Prince Michael of Kent wears. Or Bill Clinton.

Get it: this Roundtree & York Gold Point-Collar Dress Shirt, $49, Dillards
