What shoes should you wear with a navy suit? It depends on how much contrast you want. Brown and black are classic, but blue, burgundy, metallic, cork and a distinctive print can give a navy suit much more personality.
Navy suit with blue shoes
Blue with blue works especially well when the shades aren't identical. Deep-blue jacquard or a glossy blue shoe adds depth without creating a hard contrast.
Navy suit with colourful shoes
Burgundy, green, metallics and prints create more tension. Ideally, repeat one colour in your shirt, pocket square, socks or belt.
For a wedding
