I think one thing that is often underestimated in the world of social media is that in real life, you always need to dress with a purpose, whether it's for work, a night out with friends, or going grocery shopping. In my opinion, a fundamental piece of advice is, first of all, to understand the context you're dressing for. Many of these well-dressed people, if placed in a formal setting, would look ridiculous to everyone. Even though we all agree that they have a great look when seen in a photo on Instagram. Those who have real style, first and foremost, understand how to navigate social conventions, which doesn't mean conforming to everything. As Italian, I quote Giorgio Armani: "Elegance is not about being noticed, but being remembered."
I think knowing your trousers en what fits you the best is also an essential part of good styling. A good pair of trousers can make or break an outfit.
1: comfort 2: versatility 3: prone to day to day wear 4: low maintenance 5: good fit. 6: cleand and no wrinkless Ofc it has to look good. I usually wear a bit more timeless pieces and colours. Ofc for summer i use more colours. But for example my pants in autumn arent much diverse: Flannel in dark grey, grey (im searching for grey), light grey, white, navy and black in cotton... jeans in dark, blue and black... these pants never change... sometimes i feel its not creative enough or that its very restricted but i at least never have to put much effort into lookin good and dressing effortlessly. I have even thought about buying crazy jeans with designs and shit on it hahahah but idont know... amiri jeans arent that bad...
I feel like the quiet luxury "principle" is almost entirely applicable to trends too; one of the keys to incorporating trends in a subtle natural way in your fits is to almost minimise the trend aspect of your fit. For example a clear thing to avoid is to combine the trendiest top with the trendiest bottom and the trendiest footwear around, it's better to let trends bring a contemporary touch to YOUR outfit and not to base it entirely around them.
This was a great, concise list of rules. I know this may rustle a lot of peoples' jimmies, but an unspoken "suggestion" for looking stylish is to be in shape or at least not be overweight. There can be exceptions to this, especially with regards to people who have a really great understanding of proportions and how their clothing is going to fit and complement their bodies, but being overweight makes the process of perfecting your proportions much more difficult, and it will be infinitely more difficult to find good quality classic pieces in your size. Lots of higher end vintage repro companies will not make sizes for those who are overweight. I could be wrong to some degree, but let me ask you this: if you took two identical twins and put the same outfit on them with the caveat that one of those people weighed 50-100 pounds more than the other, which one of them do you think is going to look more "fashionable"?
Ah layering. The most difficult part for someone who lives in a “forever summer” country. I still do layer if the situation allows. The best opportunities are 1. Night out, 2. When it’s raining, 3. Working in the (air conditioned) office.
Underrated thing that I did not think about until about two years ago. When buying clothes, makes sure its versatile enough to be worn in different settings. The only ones that should be super specific are things for weddings and such. I dont buy an overshirt I can only wear casually anymore. This is part of why I enjoy business casual looks, they're super versatile .
@@JamesLeung Yeah I'm the same, i'm the neutral king of Sweden lol. You need olive, navy, black , white or grey? I'm your guy! If I wanna get crazy I might wear a lighter color of blue!
gotta love that your example of "those that make it look bad" in regards to baggy pants are east coast black dudes circa 2007 that can easily be pointed to as some of the forebearers of the styles we see today.
not saying it’s wrong or right but you can criticize the originators of something. Someone can say that people who first wore work wear weren’t very stylish and say someone today can wear work wear in a more modern outfit not even for work and be more stylish while still being valid.
@@martro_ I agree with you but that is not what was happening in the video. He was using a photo from 2007 as an example of how some people in 2024 have taken the baggy pants trend too far. I'm guessing he chose it because it wouldn't be very nice to throw up a picture someone took last week as a bad example. Still, I believe it shows a bit of a blindspot in the cultural context of the trend.
It's funny cuz I think that looks more "genuine" than the examples of people he used that dressed in baggy "well". Just looks like people who want to stand out and get attention.
This is just my personal opinion/experience with brands that have "loud" branding on their clothes; the quaulity just isnt there most of the time meaning your just paying for the brand not the quality. Not every item in my wardrobe is high quailty and designer but i've deffinately moved to maybe spending a little bit more to get higher quality longer lasting clothes especially for statement pieces. For basics Uniqlo will do for me. I've completely stopped buying from places like ASOS as im 5'6" and nothing ever fits smalls are too tight in the chest and mediums are too long.
You're paying for the logo...which is why I refuse to buy them. Why pay $900 for a pair of boots when I get spend $300 and get an insanely good quality boot that blows it out the water.
I received a compliment at Shake Shack last week for what I was wearing. I like to wear something interesting, something to give it some pop. Be comfortable, be fun and most of all be you!
stylish people know how to accessorise, and perhaps not afraid to wear things other people feel insecure to wear, like: tinted glasses, wristband, maybe scarf, a bit of rings, or chain, or hat, or carrying a bag. because even when limited to a certain dress code for their occupation they still manage to add alittlebit something to elevate their boring "uniform" because not everyone has liberty to wear whatever they like to wear daily unless they work in creative fields.
Fashion doesn’t really cater to people with bodies that aren’t slim/fit, having even a little gut makes clothes look very different bc the design didn’t take that into consideration. I have to be very mindful with how clothes fit as I’m in my fluffy era, not huge but def not skinny or fit rn. Getting a size bigger is way better and does fit, it’s just not tight/snug which isn’t always a good looking fit for everyone. There’s multiple series and articles dissecting outfits and looking if the fit is actually good or if it just looks good bc the person is skinny.
Fashion is the lil brother to style. Women and youth follow fashion, grown men have style. Style teaches one to compensate for a less than idea body. Watch more style videos of men your age rather than fashion (aka trends) channels.
@@CanadaFree-ce9jn What in the misogony?😂 Do you not know what fashion or style means? Why would men have style and women not?? fashion: a popular or the latest style of clothing, hair, decoration, or behaviour. style: a particular procedure by which something is done; a manner or way. By definition style would not exist without fashion. And men would not exist without women. Fashion and style are not exclusive to one gender, never will be. There’s men’s, women’s and unisex fashion. Men and women and every gender in between or outside of that can have style and it isn’t linked to a specific gender. I don’t think you need to watch any more videos, you need to READ and educate yourself. Your opinions of women being equated to children is just gross.
I don't think I follow a trend, or just not knowingly. But, I can say, dress to your lifestyle, niche and philosophy. I've been really into rock 'n' roll as far as I could remember, I can say I was raised by it. I'm also someone who thinks utility is the aesthetic for anything. And that, I can almost not think about what to wear. I almost always wear a tucked-in Uniqlo shirt, Levi's 512 pants and a good service boot. Pair it up with a leather belt that matches your boot color, and a leather satchel for your carry. This is my fool-proof style that I can just close my eyes, pick something in my closet, and I know it will pair up nicely. I still do wear band shirts and patched trucker stonewash jacket when I feel like it, but it still follows my default style. I think as men, we should have a direct and simple aesthetic. Being too flamboyant as a man will always come across trying hard. Only women can get away with it.
Most my vintage jackets like denim or woollen pieces may be short but they are boxy allowing movement (for intended work duties) and not slim fitting at all. I was forced to get them as so called modern fit’s don’t accommodate my shoulders or arms restricting movement . Pointed in this direction by a physiotherapist when having an issue with my back and trying to figure out the causes
my personal list of maybe not rules, but guidelines: my clothes should literally fit me well, my clothes should fit the weather, my clothes should fit my role and lifestyle, my clothes should excite me, my clothes should age well
Agree with all of them! The trends one is an interesting one, as im in my 40s i just think im too old to go head first into a trend full on, but its nice to have a nod to a trend to show appreciation or joing in. Eg. Im too old for full on story mfg but love the look so incorporate one of their more subtle shirts in with some looks.
The missing element in most people's dressing is nonchalance. It doesn't matter how good you look if it looks like it took effort. That is the key mistake most people make.
I really enjoy your content. I sell wine in an affluent area, and sadly, I don't see many men that dress well. A lot more ladies look stylish than men. Not related to your channel, but I think Martha Stewart looks great at all times.
Contrary to some of his own videos, men do dress just like their children. If you are wearing sweatpants, sneakers, and graphic Tees...how is that any different than a 10 year old? Sadly, even business men dress poorly where I am, hardly a polished dress shoe or pants at the right length.
About that #1 - I’m sick and tired that no higher power forced vendors to follow some kind of a universal size grid. I’ve recently started to pay more attention to proportions and sizing, and picking clothes online is an absolute pain. Abercrombie for instance has a size grid for tops (hoodies) that lists arm length ranging from 79 cm (xxs) to 93 cm (3xl). I’m a tall guy (187 cm) and my arm is somewhat 60 cm. Wtf is that, I was wondering whether I’ll end up with floppy sleeves if I get my regular M/L, turns out it’s all good but the “89 cm” measurement just threw me off. How exactly did they measure that? And same happens with more expensive brands also, I remember scratching my head seeing numbers from Fear of God that made absolutely no sense.
I totally disagree that stylish people follow the principles you outlined in the “dress intentionally” section. All the truly stylish people I know wear things “wrong”, whether that’s different sizes to what the manufacturers intended, wearing clothes from the wrong gender section, wearing things that aren’t currently trending and perhaps never will… it’s not that I think wearing things as the manufacturer intended is bad, it’s an easy way to “get the look” when it comes to following current trends that are already big enough to be easily purchasable, but that’s not something I really associate with being stylish.
Personally I'm against incorporating any logos unless a piece you like just happens to display one, or the logo itself is an aesthetic master piece. In most other cases it's just a display of wealth rather than style.
Add Rule No. 6 follow this channel :P I would love to see a video where you describe how the clothes should fit. Especially adapted to the different body types. An athletic V-type looks better in different clothes than someone with a more rectangular body type and a small belly. Especially with all the pictures you often show in your videos, I could imagine this being really helpful. Thanks for your video and see ya.
Someone stylish is when it makes no effort to look stylish, it comes naturally not forced to look stylish . Anyone can be stylish, knowing what it fit them good and what it doesn’t. Not all we can wear baggy trousers trend and not all can wear slim or skinny trousers.
Actually very wise advice. (...and thanks for not using a microphone in front of your face). And YES loud brand logos all over a garment is disgusting desperation...not even grand masters crowded their paintings with huge signatures ...not even GOD brags (the most accomplished but demure Designer there is).
The matchy matchy stand out color looks very try hard in my opinion. If it had been just the red socks it would have been better. At least it wasn't red socks red belt lol
Consumerism is like cancer to this planet, that's what's wrong with trends my dude. It goes way beyond buying items that will go out of style in the next 6 months.
Designer logos are for those who can't afford the "real thing". Meaning, those who can't afford an expensive Hugo Boss suit end up buying that much cheaper Hugo Boss logo T-shirt. Same with anything from RL. However, unless a knock off, even a designer logo shirt/hat will be more expensive than a generic non-logo equivalent. Stylish people also know how to dress for their skin color and looks (not just body shape), they also know how to dress for their lifestyle which may not be an office 9-5.
Wow James. For the baggy oversized trend, You used an image of black people to depict “the divide between those who make it look good and those who make it look bad” as if black people do it badly. Some nerve to offend black people like that when black people were among the first to wear baggy jeans and popularize the look.
Except, the first slide for ‘good’ has a black woman and the final slide for ‘bad’ is a white guy. I appreciate there’s cultural factors attributed to baggy street wear, but in the context of this video, I don’t think it’s that deep

NTM every video of his I come across is the exact same. How many times have these fake ass fashion influencers said "Measurements and proportions are the most important part of being stylish"? If I had a dollar for every time they said so I'd have enough money to buy whatever midrange loafer they're trying to get me to buy since none of these men know wtf a sneaker is. Fashion journalism has gone to such shit to the point where I might as well just start a channel shitting on these "Afraid Of Color" ass men. To anyone who made it this far I suggest you watch Iri's Apfel's documentary if you really want to be stylish.

pants are so underated and looked over, i've had the Kenzo Elephant Flag cargo jeans for a couple of months now and id wear them 24/7 if i could.
If you want to branch out on your jeans. Get a pair of olive ones. Work really well during the fall.

If I had a dollar for every time they said so I'd have enough money to buy whatever midrange loafer they're trying to get me to buy since none of these men know wtf a sneaker is. Fashion journalism has gone to such shit to the point where I might as well just start a channel shitting on these "Afraid Of Color" ass men. To anyone who made it this far I suggest you watch Iri's Apfel's documentary if you really want to be stylish.

Tip for this video (and all others by this dude) - watch on 1.5 speed because he talks absurdly slow.
