Collar Compendium

Sure, picking shirts in different prints and colours is an obvious way to diversify your wardrobe, but have you given a thought to your collar? Point and mandarin collars, relics from another era, are fresh again, thanks to relatively little play recently. They are exact opposites–one demanding to be noticed, the other barely there. While any style of collar you choose will look at home under a blazer, some can handle being more dressed up (banker, spread, point) than others (mandarin, oxford, club). Best to stock up.
