Student Style Tips: From Affordable Suits to Wrinkle-Free Shirts

Attention, incoming students! Summer holidays are still in full swing, but soon this academic year's courses will begin. Of course, you want to make a great impression on your fellow students at all the introduction days, parties and social events coming up. However, with a student budget, it can be quite a challenge to look impeccable at these occasions. That's why we've gathered the handiest tips for you to get through your student years in style on a tight budget!

First Day of School: Studious Chic

The first day of your student life is always exciting. You'll meet lots of new people, so you want to look good without standing out too much. But what do you wear on such a first day? A safe choice is studious chic. In other words: a stylish outfit that isn't too eye-catching. The most important thing about a studious chic outfit is that you feel comfortable in it. So wear items like jeans or a chino combined with a polo or shirt. For shoes, you can go for smart leather lace-ups or sporty sneakers. Stylish and comfortable!

Affordable Suits for Galas and Social Events

As a student, parties, social events and occasions come thick and fast. Sometimes special events come along with a formal dress code. Think of black tie where you need to wear a tuxedo, or white tie where a tailcoat is expected. However, suits are generally quite expensive, especially if you only have a small student budget. At GENTS, we therefore have the perfect solution. Through our sponsorship initiatives, we provide students with high-quality suits at the best prices. Are you a current or prospective student looking to buy an affordable suit? Then read more about our sponsorship and fitting days.

Never Iron Again with Wrinkle-Free Shirts

Parties, exams, social events… As a student, you've got your hands full. We understand that ironing your shirts is the last thing you want to deal with. Ironing is time-consuming and an ironing board takes up a lot of space. Fortunately, you don't have to go around in a creased shirt, because at GENTS we have the finest wrinkle-free shirts in various colours. These are made from cotton that has undergone a special treatment, keeping the fabric wrinkle-free. So you no longer need to fuss with an iron or ironing board – simply hang your shirt to dry after washing. Once it's dry, you're ready to go!
