How to Dress Like Andy Bernard

Andrew Baines Bernard is introduced as the “Regional Director in charge of sales” first at the Stamford branch, but later relocated when Stamford is shut-down and merged with Dunder Mifflin Scranton Branch.

He is assigned to sales for a period of time, but isn’t particularly successful. When Robert California is initially hired as branch manager, he somehow convinces Jo Bennett (Sabre CEO) to appoint himself to her own position and assigns Andy to the position of branch manager.

Andy is goofy and fun-loving most often, but he does have his own personal issues with anger management - which becomes very apparent when he becomes so frustrated by a prank Pam and Jim play on him, that he punches a hole in a wall of the office.

Andy’s style is preppy in nature, consisting of many bold colored sweater vests, ties and khaki pants or dress slacks in general. His style could be described as flashy or even fancy at times.

Ahead you will find our guide to help you match the style and fashion of Andy Bernard.

The Legwear of Sir Andrew Bernard

Andrew Bernard has without a doubt the most noticeable and unique legwear of any character appearing on The Office. While he is often seen in pants and slacks not outside the norm such as his khaki or navy slacks, Andy will likely be remembered for his more unusual legwear choices, such as: his salmon or bright blue slacks.

These salmon colored pants are a bold choice for anyone, but Andy somehow manages to pull the look off with great aplomb.

The Kicks of a Cornell Alum

Much like the rest of his wardrobe, Andy’s shoes are no simple affair. Andy has been noted to wear several styles of loafers ranging in color from beige to black.

Arguably the most recognizable set of shoes owned by “The Nard Dog” are his brown leather textured, buckle loafers.

These brown dress shoes are a very near match to the loafers of Mr. Bernard, though it is worth noting that the texture of these particular shoes comes from the perforations and not particularly the design as Andy’s specific shoes appear to incorporate.

Andy's Flashy Neck Ties

When it comes to Andy’s neckties and bow ties, his flashy taste in color and pattern comes in full force. Andy is known to have worn several different colors and patterns of necktie including: yellow, blue, green,pink. striped, checkered and even plaid.
