Stripes usually mean business (think of the ubiquitous pinstriped suit or shirt), but checks have a somewhat cool, casual and even edgy appeal.

What’s more, the square motif comes in a number of variations which makes it unique and versatile such as gingham, windowpane, chequerboard, houndstooth and Prince of Wales check just to name a few.
