Dark Complexion Men Outfit Item #3 – Navy Silk Knit Tie
If you feel your outfit is too dressed up for the moment, you can change the feel of your outfit by simply changing your ties. Wearing a silk knit tie is going to dress down a formal outfit.
As your neckties get lighter in color, they become less interchangeable. A solid navy knit tie with a blue gingham shirt and navy suit is a winning combination. The dark color of the tie complements a deep skin tone and presents a more uniform and professional look to a smart outfit.
The flat, squared bottom makes the knitted tie look a little less formal and consequently more versatile.
Anything other than a basic basic Half Windsor or Four In Hand knot will make the knot look bulky. As with a traditional pointed neck tie, the blunt end of the knit tie should still hit the top of your waistband.
It is generally not recommended to wear a tie with a button down shirt. The button down collar takes away the clean look and formality of the suit.
Dark Complexion Men Outfit Item #4 – Watch
A stylish watch is the most basic of accessories for a man. Purchase a timepiece that is both classic and rugged. A slim, sleek dress watch is appropriate for a job interview, but to balance a dressed down suit – you need a timepiece with a bit more weight to it to help balance the look. Leather bands look more relaxed than metal. Pick a bright color for your watch face. In this case, it is okay to have a white face. A brown leather strap is preferable because you can wear it for a boardroom meeting or on in the field when physical labor is required.
Dark Complexion Men Outfit Item #5 – Brown Oxford Shoes
Although Chiwetel Ejiofor is seen wearing a pair of brown derby shoes, a pair of brown Oxford shoes would be more appropriate for this outfit.
The Oxford is a versatile style that can be worn to suit any formal occasion from a regular day at the office to special events like weddings. This type of lace-up shoe always has the curved stitching from the bottom of the lace section down to the welt.
The closed stitching on these shoes present a sleeker, cleaner look that is appropriate for formal and dressier occasions. Dark brown is a more versatile color than black for shoes. Brown leather shoes add extra variety and color to your outfit. Keep the shoe silhouette and color relatively simple, as anything too fancy will look too forced.
BONUS – Finishing Touches
This is also a great versatile outfit for lighter complexions as well. This is a versatile outfit that can easily be dressed up or down based on the occasion. An outfit that you can wear into a boardroom meeting. Appropriate for a lunchtime time date. And then for evening drinks with friends. You can take off the jacket. Roll up the sleeves. Make another great outfit out of it. Watch the movie The Martian for more examples of how a dark-complexioned man can use deep colors that will accentuate his facial features the best.

- Polish up your outfit with a silver tie bar and white. A collar bar is a simple way to add elegance when wearing a knit tie.
- Accentuate your features by selecting the right glasses for your face shape. In the movie, Chiwetel Ejiofor sports square eyeglasses to add structure to his oval face.
- If your trousers fit correctly, you don’t need a belt. If you still prefer to wear one, select a belt that is no wider than an inch or so. A simple flat frame metal buckle is all you need and ensure that your shoes and belt compliment each other in color.
