Put the collar up on the shirt
No question about it - the raised shirt collar is a fashion statement. But how do you really stylishly wear the special look?
Already in the eighties it was fashionable to wear the collar shirt superscript. Now the trend has returned, but the trendy look doesn't suit everyone.
Stand-up collar - yes or no?
If you wear a raised collar on your shirt or polo shirt, you have to expect hostility.
- The raised collar is now a trademark of wealthy young people who - to put it simply - try to loosen up their conservative look a little.
- If you decide to wear a stand-up collar, you must expect to be assigned to this group.
- Therefore, always make sure that you do not come across as blasé - otherwise you are just confirming the cliché.

How to wear a stand-up collar in style
Basically, you can put up the collar of a shirt or that of a polo shirt.
- If you opt for the more classic variant, i.e. the shirt, the rest of your look should also be a bit casual: a classic one men's suit does not look good with the collar up.
- Jeans with a jacket and a shirt, on the other hand, are ideal for putting up the collar of the shirt.
- If you want to wear a polo shirt instead of a shirt, you can wear chinos with it. The bright ones pants are trendy and provide a casual look.
- If you want to go out, you can also wear jeans with a polo shirt with the collar turned up. Because a polo shirt falls loosely, the jeans should be reasonably tight.
- It is important for both variants that you never wear a tie or bow tie with the stand-up collar.
Don't be surprised if the collar doesn't stay the same. To do this, you must first wash the top and iron the collar with spray starch.
