He gives advice for a very broad audience without really mentioning it and you kinda have to pick and choose. And his audience probably is men at least in their middle adulthood.
This isn't everyone's style of dress. Definitely a vintage, classy element that doesn't work for everyone, but if it works for you, this clip is exceptional. I pick and choose from his suggestions to have a style that works for me.
So true. Love wearing ties and waistcoats. Have to wait till mid October here in Spain though as early morning temperatures in Sept. may be quite chilly but by midday it's t-shirt and chinos time.
I live in Athens Georgia and I don't think we even have a fall season ,it's 80 to 90 degrees even past thanksgiving so most of these items would just be too hot to ever wear any of them
Anyone else see that he broke the button on his glove 1:41? I'm sure their quality is very good, I just find it funny that this video is promoting these gloves and.... "Oops. Guess we'll just leave that in there." Lol
I think if the cord trousers were a bit of a closer fit they would look much better. Agreed though, I have a cord 3 piece suit and it looks great, I aman early 30's brown dude though.
I live in Brazil's North, is too warm bro... We just use gloves to take out something from furnace haha... But is nice be a gentleman here at the winter, have so much rain.
Brian Crink we make the era we live in. I’d give away standing out from the crowd for this anyday because It’s not about standing out its about building a world that has class in it.
Such good tips, and those overcast park locations with the stunning trees look like a million bucks. Nice work, seeing you out of the studio for a change.
I love a lot of what your suggestions are, but part of dressing well and being dapper is understanding the audience. As a college student, I would be mocked, instead of being considered a gentleman and a leader, if I dressed this way. I love how you keep history alive, but it may be good to communicate the importance of context to your audience.
I love the way you film your various outfits in this video. Very appealing, ease to the eyes and providing many different viewing angles to the outfits
I wear a lot of tweed in the fall, mostly jacket/sport coat. While Sven says to stay away from bright reds, I've found that a red sweater vest, either bright or soft, really makes an otherwise muted fall ensemble really pop. The flat cap, cords and no white shirts are some of the things I agree with. Casual, but with some thought.
I can appreciate the style, but one reason this looks odd today is because we don’t need to worry about temperatures too much. Walking from a warm building to a warm car does not really make gloves or a cap a defacto requirement, other than for the look, which again I do appreciate. Also, if I am out on a beautiful fall day, I will be working around the house or hiking, so not sure where I go to wear these looks. I do like the flat cap, but the gloves I would choose would be more tactical and practical. I do like the concept at advice in these videos.
Although the overall style of the outfit is more mature because of the earthy colors and the textured fabrics, I think the flat cap makes you look younger. They make everybody look younger in my mind because they remind me of newsboys.
Nice! I have an old green tweed jacket that is high quality and very warm and heavy. I found it on Ebay. I pair it with a tweed flat cap. Most of my peers do not where what I wear. I don't care. I don't wear hoodies or sweatpants in public in which most people wear nowadays during the pandemic.
l don't know abaut men deforme, but, as a woman, l love the way you mix and match textures and patterns. Compliments. tuo have a really good tasta. You make it interesting, don't looking cheap as many guys that try to be modern. If guys are affraid of looking like and old man, l think, is just question of mixing and matching. Complimets again.
I enjoy your videos, however they are not very practical where I'm from since its summer 11 months out of the year here in Texas. Do you have anything for us since wearing multiple layers would lead to intense sweating and look out of place. Or should we just continue on with the summer wear?
debonairgallant for your location. It will be more a case of understanding seasonal color trends. It may feel like summer 11 months, but the seasonal color trends change. Vests or waistcoats may also be a good choice. It is an extra layer with little heat capturing potential. Fall is my favorite time of year. The color pallette is subdued, so you can incorporate more colors without being too garish.
Raphael, I ask this as a fellow Minnesotan. Can you can you make a video on staying stylish in deep winter? Despite my best intentions, I find it difficult and even slightly dangerous to go out without my Columbia or thick Northface when it is -40. I collected a few which allows me to try to pull off a look that is almost like a quilted jacket setup, but it would be lovely to have your expert opinion to make them look as stylish as possible while staying safe in the long upcoming months.
Imagine he lost 40lbs. Then none of his bespoke clothes will fit, and it would have all been a waste of money. Thousands upon thousands. This is why I don’t like bespokeZ
I am drooling over your burgundy gloves -- perfect for Fall, and the button is a nice touch. There is something "wrong' with this outfit -- I finally figured out it's just too much colour. I think you should go with a brown corduroy, not caramel, for the pants.
I don't wear a lot of colors this time of year. I unconsciously wear a lot of black in fall and actually go _towards_ looking more dark. The colder it gets and the further along the year ends, my overall mood changes, and it isn't very lively despite all the holidays.
I am sorry to say so Sir because from what I can tell you have an otherwise impeccable sense of classic style, but the cardigan you are wearing at 10:25 is absolutely horrendous and does not fit you very well either might I add. That said you are a constant source of inspiration, keep it up!
In my family, we (men) tend to dress in more classic and semi-formal clothes than most people. That’s how I was raised. As far as tweed, my family has Irish and Scottish heritage (from my mother’s and father’s side, respectively); my grandfather had tweed in his wardrobe, as did my father, and so do I. It may seem “odd” to some, but I’ll argue a lot of it comes from one’s heritage and how they were brought up.
Most 70+ year old men I see around are wearing jeans, baseball caps, and a sports team jacket. If they are dressed up, it's in a dark chain store suit, a white shirt, and a Bugs Bunny tie. Old hippies are not wearing tweed either. Young people now have never seen these types of clothes in general use before, just in movies.
Good point. This is probably why many young people think of tweed clothing as “dated” or a bit odd. Then again, tweed flat caps are quite popular now, and I see more and more people in my age group (20s) wearing them.
I wish I could afford to hire you. I’m looking for three conservative suits. Dark blue. Dark gray and black. I’m 59 and want to keep these suits for the rest of my life. I wouldn’t know a good suit from a bad one. But. Just wishing.
As always - nice video! Are you going to make any style tips for winter? Where I'm living it is not unusual to have a snow and real frost after a couple of weeks.
I save money on gloves as I NEVER NEED THEM HERE IN SPAIN. i like the look of cords with a tweed jacket. Their only drawback is that they stretch and lose their shape consistently even if you aquire the more expensive ones, so I'm hesitant about a re-investent. I prefer to go hatless than wear a flat hat;. It doesn't suit me. Having said that, I really like fedoras and Panama hats. Great video though.
Probably mid-range. Your other items can contrast lighter or darker then. If you pick the darkest or lightest shade, the other items can only go in one direction to contrast - reducing the choice from your wardrobe.
