Sock It To Me

Filed under: Grooms · Posted by: Polkadot Bride at 12:40 pm

In doubt about what colour socks to wear? A good guide is suit colour equals sock colour (not shoe colour!). Wear black socks (not white, unless you’re going for an ultra stylish look like East Side Bride describes) if you’re wearing a tux or black suit, brown if you’re wearing a brown suit and taupe for a taupe suit and go sockless if you’re wearing thongs (flip flops). Make sure your socks are long enough so you don’t show any leg while sitting.

However as with everything, don’t be limited to tradition. Choosing to wear coloured socks is a great way to show some personality without compromising on style.

To prove a point, I present- the coloured wedding sock!

  1. i love the whimsical socks on men. the added detail makes their outfit just a little more thought out and put together. but what about for tennis shoes? my fiancee and team are planning on wearing nike SBs.
