Guys don't wear wolf pelts anymore, but not much else has changed
in the world of men's clothes: the right suit, or tie, or shirt, or
shoes still projects mystery, erotic potential, and power. And to
negotiate these hurdles with style and confidence, "Men's Style" is
indispensable---a valuable source of practical advice for how to
dress in a world of conflicting fashion imperatives, and a witty
guide to the history, trends, codes, and conventions of men's
attire.
In chapters and amusing sidebars on shoes, suits, shirts and ties,
formal and casual wear, underwear and swimsuits, cufflinks and
watches, coats, hats, and scarves, Russell Smith steers a confident
course between the twin hazards of blandness and vulgarity to
articulate a philosophy of dress that can take you anywhere.
Here you'll find the rules for looking the part at the office, a
formal function, or the hippest party---and learn when you can toss
those rules aside. And you'll find level answers to all of your
questions. What color suit should a man buy first? Should socks
match the belt, pants, or shoes? What tuxedos are always in, and
which aren't ever? And what's required of ambiguous social
situations like "dress casual" and "black-tie optional"? The
answers are here, in a book that's full of trivia, history, and
guidance---finally, the perfect guide for brothers, fathers, sons,
and selves.
