Amies, Sir Hardy
“A man should pick his clothes wisely, put them on carefully, and then put them away.”
Elizabeth II’s royal designer and clothes designer, Sir Hardy Amies
Why I Like It: Wearing your clothing and not letting them wear you is summed up in this bit of wisdom. You’ll look confident and easy if you approach the most laborious clothing with a “this old thing?” attitude.
Flusser, Alan
“Learning how to dress nicely isn’t that difficult. Finding the correct information is the challenging part of it. The fact that it is finite makes it simple. I tell clients that providing accurate information is no more expensive for us than providing inaccurate information.
Why I Like It: This demystifies fashion, which is why I adore it. You can find all the information you need to look nice right there. In essence, Flusser is saying that you will have “finite,” unchanging information (such as what colors work well with you and what your ideal fit is) and you will know what to do with clothing for the rest of your life if you visit a reputable, good tailor.
“I would like to encourage young men who are just starting out to gradually construct a wardrobe based on good quality and conservative taste.”
G. Bruce Boyer, a journalist covering fashion
The Reason I Enjoy It: Boyer, a staunch advocate of moderation, begs that having two good pairs of shoes is preferable to having six cheap ones. Additionally, because you are not burdened by the paradox of choice, getting dressed in the morning is considerably quicker and simpler.
“You can always take something off to be more casual, but never the other way around, so I think it’s better to dress up.”
Influencer in fashion, Eric Rutherford
It’s the dress code equivalent of dressing in layers for the weather, which is why I like it. You can always take off your suit jacket or tie, but you can’t just make one up when you need it.
Why I Enjoy It: I appreciate enlightening counsel that appropriately defies popular belief, such as “short men shouldn’t wear horizontal stripes.” The scale is more important than the pattern’s orientation; aim for thin stripes, tiny dots, or micro gingham.
Schuman, Scott
“Monochrome is simpler.” It’s sleeker, and life is so much simpler if you figure out your color scheme—it doesn’t have to be just one hue. Don’t play the fashion game if you don’t feel like it.
Why I Like It: Sometimes you just don’t feel like trying when it comes to clothing. But it’s useful to have this monochrome cheat code because you can’t go out into the world looking like you’re not trying.
“Everyone has a natural sense of style, and it is our duty to take chances and make mistakes until we believe we are living our best lives.”
Millington, Chris John
“Make do with what you have. Wear comfy pants and well-fitting t-shirts to look put together without breaking the bank. From there, everything else is merely an accessory.

The Reason I Enjoy It: I enjoy the notion that you can create the basic elements of an ensemble at any price range and then express yourself however you feel most comfortable. People of all income levels should be able to afford the style.
The reason this remark appeals to me is that I often forget to button my suit jacket again after I’ve unbuttoned it to sit down. It is a fact that a suit’s silhouette and fit are optimal when the top button is pressed.
Wellington, Dandy
The most adaptable pieces in a man’s outfit can be jewelry, such as a wristwatch, signet ring, or vintage tie clip. Why not declare these pieces vintage, as they are commonplace in many men’s wardrobes?
Cuadro Barron
“There are iconic elements (think suits, denim, T-shirts, etc.), but over the years, their designs and how we dress them have evolved. Purchase extremely “middle of the road” clothing or dress for the occasion!
Everett, Frank
