Well, traditional fashion sense would say NO TIE with any "brown dress shirt". I would say, white or off-white would go tolerably well. Peeps here might suggest yellow. Ignore them.

tan? A different shade of brown?

Perhaps a very light shade of tan. A tie cries out for contrast from the background of the shirt, which is why, WHITE shirts are the norm.

wear a bow tie.

...Brown dress shirt? I guess a black tie or really dark grey. I'd change the shirt first.

Most colors should work fine with a solid brown dress shirt. I would start with either a blue, orange or pink depending on your options.

i'd go with any tie that has a little brown in it...else...maybe a light blue or cream?

If you really want useful fashion advice heed this: Burn any brown dress shirts you own.

 

[nageov3t]

black or a darker brown?

 

[schneiderguy]

purple

 

[skywhr]

black, tan, gray, green or white any shade of these colors within reason....

Beige, yellow, pattern that has brown in it. To be honest, a salmon color would work too.

QFT

Brown dress shirts shouldn't be worn with a tie.

pics?

i need to know how brown this shirt is.... because if its like really really dark you need a contrasting shade... lavender would work, someone said salmon, that would work, not yellow yellow- maybe like a pastel yellow, something really pale, baby blue

if its a light brown shirt, like tan or khaki looking, id go with maroon or navy blue or even like, emerald or plum

yeah....I had a hot chick tell me that in High school (she was really hot!).

I sat behind her in ENglish and while I was talking to her she saw me wearing a brown belt with black shoes. She just went:

"Black Shoes and brown belt...that's a fashion no no"

Till this day, when i ever I see her i just call her "fashion police".

Yeah, don't wear a tie with that. Heck, I don't even know what pants you'd wear with that.

 

[Skunkwourk]

Depends on the occasion. Personally to be different, I would wear Red.

yea, actually that is so true. something THAT brown, you cant wear dress pants with it. you would look like a turd wearing that shirt and dark pants. you cant wear white ones or youll like you belong in studio 54.... grey will not work and neither will khaki...

buy a new shirt, man and match it to a tie you already own...
