The People Have Spoken: Button-Down Shirts Are the Best Option For First Dates
by Chiara Atik on July 13, 2011
Last week, we asked you what type of shirt is the best for guys to wear on a date. Are polo shirts acceptable? Does it even matter?
The overwhelming majority of respondents seemed to think that button-down shirts are the best and safest option: they’re elegant, stylish, and easy to dress up or down.
Polo shirts got 10% of the votes, though it must be said that people who hate polo shirts really hate polo shirts.
Coming in last was graphic tees, with only 2% of the votes. The lesson is clear: don’t let your t-shirt do the talking.

Of course, attire depends also on what type of date it is, but aside from a physical activity of some sort, button-down shirts will work for almost any date.
Ladies, we wanna know, would you reject a guy if he showed up for a date in the wrong clothing? If you’re anti-polo, would a polo be a dealbreaker? Take our Facebook Poll here!
