The man in this image is dressed appropriately for a smart casual dress code. For men and women, smart casual dressing can often include textures such as tweed, corduroy, and suede. This man's tweed sport coat coordinates nicely with a button down shirt and tie. Another characteristic of smart casual dressing, in contrast with the formality of black and navy blue in a formal dress code environment, is the prevalence of colors such as brown.
