Button-down Collar
This collar style can be attributed to Brooks Brothers, and was invented so that the flaps of the collar don't flap around. This collar has a two buttons or pins that can hold the flaps of the collar down. The look of this tends to be informal, that's why it is used more in a business-casual setting.
Cutaway or Spread Collar
This collar has a wider spread than most, thus the name. Using the bigger, wider Windsor Knot or Half-Windsor would be the most appropriate know to conceal the wide space. This type of collar is perfect for those with slim faces.
Band Collar
One of the collars that cannot be worn with a tie, this may bring some informal look to the suit but if coupled with a certain blazer, would give it a more formal look. Some variations of this include: Clerical Collar and Mandarain Collar.
