Simple rules for suspender color

Dark suits, classic straps. Black, navy, gray and burgundy suit almost any dark suit. Burgundy is the easiest way to add color without it looking loud.
Contrast with the shirt. Straps should stand out from the shirt behind them. Black straps on a black shirt disappear.
Match your leather. If the suspenders have leather ends, keep them close to your shoes and belt, brown with brown and black with black.
One bold piece. Bright or patterned suspenders look best when the tie and pocket square stay quiet, and the other way round.
For weddings, match the groomsmen to one color from the wedding palette and give the groom a slightly different shade or a leather finish.

These are style suggestions, not rules. Browse by color on the collections page.
