These white royal oxfords and twills are fine. Not a fan of the phantom stripe though. Would definitely question a white paisley.
the one with the fattest "stripes" of those pictures (the third link) looks like a bad idea - it looks a little too much like curtains for it to work. the others you'd have to see the full shirt in person, but you know the rule: if you have to ask yourself "is this is okay?", it's not okay.

Dude, get some mens shirts, hugo boss or something similar
The only "textured" white dress shirt you should buy should be a oxford, twill or linen, or a pique tuxedo shirt. Paisleys and stripes? Leave that to chicks and guys in San Fran.
I would say never for work (unless it's an oxford like porkbellies said) but it might depend how senior you are.
plain poplin/broadcloth, or pinpoint. that's it.
Patterned/Textured Shirts (Originally Posted: 04/08/2011)
What are your thoughts on adding a bit of a pattern or texture to the traditional white shirt? I was looking at a few shirts here and wanted to know the community's opinion:

Ignore for the time being the brand/color/cut/cuff/etc and instead lets hear what you think about adding a bit of "oomph" to a standard white dress shirt. Is it lame? Does it add a bit of flair? Is it too fashion-forward for banking?
Nothing wrong with any of those.
Haha are you kidding? Those are still just white shirts. Nobody will even notice.
HAHAHAHAHHA. This is the best post EVER. The short answer is that each of those shirts you linked to is far too risqué
