When you dress great, you feel great. Buy three to four different suits. A black, a gray, a blue and any other option you’d like. Then two to three dress shirts, three different ties, dress socks and finally a pair of black and brown dress shoes. Make sure they are fitted, not lose or too tight. You’ll feel like a million bucks! Trust me
I was blessed with beeing the first to see this video. Absolutely wonderful. Hugo and Sonya remain classic and better dressed than 90 percent of "celebrities" who are trying to reinvent the wheel. Keep going and teach men and women about elegance! Best regards from Croatia!
My father was voted best dressed in school. He had many admirers. Later in life after his military career he would still wear his military dress blues and would often be the center of attention. He would satirically threaten my friends girlfriends if they were ever rude he would wear his Tartan to their wedding and upstage them. Style can bring joy and opportunities just wear them well.
After watching a lot of your topics on Sartorial Talks I must conclude this: you not only understand the art to explain things like a skilled professional teacher would do (I know, Im a professional teacher 😉). You give just enough detail without losing the main goal of the explanation. You speak in a very pleasurable way, with lively intonation and emotion. You don't read a pre-written text, you tell us your stories. But most of all, I absolutely love your voice! It has a warm and cosy timbre, calms the listener down and opens him up to the content of your story. You're also always a joy to watch. Sonya, I could listen to and watch your vids for days! Keep them coming, please.
As you are coming from a related background, of course I respect and cherish your words. Please accept a heartfelt "thank you" for the time you gave to relay this message (with such a staying power). With gratitude, ~Sonya
Part pragmatic and part dashing. Absolutely. I can’t tell you how much I’ve enjoyed this particular video. Everything makes absolute sense. Thank you Sonia.
This channel has given me so much insight and I was inspired by the immense passion you radiate in every video. I also have great respect for your efforts to reply to so many comments which demonstrates and strengthens the sense of community. As someone just starting his sartorial journey (and a german on top of it), it greatly encourages me to be warmly invited, independent on "where I am on this personal journey" as Sonya put it in one of the videos. If I may request a topic, it would be pants. It is an important part that often seems to be overlooked. Best regards
This is how it was back in the day. You should hear how they spoke back then. Videos of women in the 50's and 60's. It is waay different. More feminine.
One of the best coverage of men style. I really appreciate and enjoyed how you tied the inner us and our struggles to reveal and express ourselves to others through style. A few are naturally gifted, however, for many of us it is coaching such yours is how we can find our way. Thank you indeed. This was well presented.
Another gem from Sonya. Thank you. Have coincidentally just been in a work session about introverts, extroverts and ambiverts. Like those categories, I think most of us have elements of more than one archetype. Love the research from Ariel and Men's Health. A lot of women I know would simply like men to shower and shave on a regular basis!
This is the best video that sartorial talks have done for a long time..... and defiantly the button boot is my favourite footwear out of all of these....
I love the number 9...so I'm glad I am called "1800"; I like the term "composed" as we do have music that plays when we enter a room. In the 80s I dressed in "Futuristic" style, and yes I had a WW2 coat
I could not stop smiling wachting the video. The shoe recoment-ation of Hugo absolutely nailed it. Me and my bro's very often "judging" men by the type of shoes they wear- with more or less the same result. Good job!
So nice of you to say, and I have to agree in regard to the power of a great pair of shoes to transform a man's appearance, no matter what garments he is wearing. But the greatest thing is to see a person feel better when he feels good about his shoes. I can't explain it but have seen the phenomenon repeat itself. ~Sonya
@@SARTORIALTALKS thank you for taking time to answer! I totally agree with you. Ps: the most inspiring part of the "parisian gentlemen" was definitely chapter3 "of shoes and men" -Peter
@@justcaused6182 You can go with a 2 piece suit or a double button suit for everyday too. You can go to the opera buy the 500$ seats and go in white tie or little less formal black tie.
You definitely can. But sadly it's not the golden days of man's style so everybody is wearing joggers and T-shirt. If tomorrow they were to start wearing suits as casual clothing, I'd be the first to jump on that train. I love suits. Sadly I feel alienated whenever I dress up for an event, because I will most likely outdress everyone.
@@justcaused6182 It's same for me too. I really enjoy wearing suits but if I were too much overdressed than other people in my class (I'm high school 20yrs old) I'd would look weird. I wear casual, sometimes business casual - button down and still outdress most of the classmates. But I've reached a level where I would feel extremely uncomfortable wearing sweatpants, nikes and hoodies. It would be as uncomfortable for me as if I were only dressed in swimming trunks. But when you walking outside you can dress in a suit and you will look good, no one will make fun of you. In class I've seen professors take me for more mature and respect me more than others. I like to be 2 levels dressed up than others. For example if someone is wearing hoodie I'll be wearing a polo shirt or a dress shirt, if people around me will be in casual suits with no neckwear, I'll go more formal and wear a tie. I always try to be well dressed but not over dressed because that would not make me look well dressed, but weird. What do you think?
Good day Mr Jacomet and Ms Nicholson. I can't recall how I've come across your videos but it has been extremely educational. Such a different way to view men's clothing in this fast fashion, throw away culture. If possible I would appreciate your opinion and advice. I live in a warm climate which makes dressing well difficult from a practical perspective. Added to this is that the standard manner of men's dressing here (South Africa) is extremely casual. When one aims to dress well one is perceived as trying too hard, you certainly stand out from the crowd. There are many who dress well, but sadly sacrifice so much to do so. Many go into debt to acquire good clothes . Many guys come across as focusing solely on clothes and appearance. Which is why some guys don't aim to dress well as they do not want to appear vain/proud(sadly that was my perspective). What I appreciate about your channel and approach is that vanity and pride do not come across at all. What are your best suggestions for dressing well in warm climates? What would be a good start for a young man aiming to dress better? It would be great to afford the best but that is beyond many budgets. Grateful for your work and long may it continue. God bless
A high twist open weave summer blazer could change a person's life for the better in a warm climate ! God bless you and sorry the the very late reply. Yours, Sonya and Hugo
I feel that I may be a mixture of the dashing, circa 1800 man and the countryside gentleman. I tend to make my own style. Mixing the silver pocket watch with a modern suit and waistcoat. But always warm. Always joyful.
My daughter is 5 and I've already told her if a young man asks her on a date and is wearing tracksuit bottoms, to walk away 😂 setting the bar high now. Ps she can date at 30 😜
I am not a scholar in this field but based on my experience, women notice when you „just“ take care of you and your wardrobe. I don‘t need to wear a suit at work or when I go out; but I want to. Just to make me feel good, have a good time and of course, people notice that you feel good. I can dress more than decent with a pair of jeans, a shirt and a pair of derby shoes or Chelsea boots (which I love). I would say, that I fall in the minimalist category. I am 6‘4“. So I stand out physically, so regarding wardrobe, watches and shoes I try to keep it simple.
in a very professional way, as a fashion lover and photographer, I cant stop listening to you and taking my eyes off you.. Very well spoken and great information relayed over. Thank you so much. I'm learning quite a bit. Keep up the videos please.
I'd like to see her use photos of men wearing sneakers to describe how to use various types of pants like light blue, dark blue, grey, light brown, dark brown, white, burgundy, olive, denim, joggers paired with various shirt types, and extremely importantly, how to make decisions related to complimentary colours, analogous colours, triadic, earth tones, pastel, monochrome, textures, patterns vs. solids. I'm 35 and I'm fairly advanced, but I need extremely accurate and precise information about how to extend into the next levels of sneaker expression. As an example, I'd love to hear her talk about Nike Blazer Low GT, Nike Blazer Mid, Nike Air Max 90, and Nike Air Jordan 4... I consider those shoe silhouettes to be art pieces, and they are in my opinion fabulous starting points for some outfits, but I'm not sure how to decide if I want to aim for 2, 3 or 4 colours, and where, because splashes of colour in the watch, belt, socks, hats. My hair is blond, so I want her to talk about hair colour as well. I hope my "request" is sartorial-grade. Any videos over time will be much appreciated. I would love her to take a deep dive into those above mentioned shoe models and figure out what makes them tick for the female mind.
Thanks so much Sonya for the amazing way you continue teach and share from a womans point of view on mens fashion. I continue to learn alot from your video and look forward to the next one. Have a great day. Mike
I agree 100%. That being said, Today I went to the grocery with old sweats, although they were pressed with a crease (I was moving stuff), a white t-shirt and a Ralph Lauren denim shirt worn as a jacket, clean white tennis shoes, my hair is curly and neat, my hands are manicured, a wood bracelet watch and wearing two wood rings (middle and pinky.) An attractive woman my age flirted with me. Bottom line, sometime if everything else is tight they see through the other stuff.
Loved the insights, especially with the nod towards psychology. As a photographer, colour theory is something that always fascinates me and where you mention red, I agree 100%. It's the same reason that red lipstick is popular in women, or you see lots of reds in flamenco dresses to really bring out the passion! Rich colours in general work well I think (golds, browns, orange, the colours of autumn for that 'snuggle by the fireplace' feeling) and are, perhaps, a subject for a whole video or book of their own! Great episode! Loved it!
Now I am inspired to try a splash of more color and see what happens. Thank you--and the red in your thumbnail does relay a nice energy, so bravo! ~Sonya
I would suggest that you do an episode or series on each archetype. I especially would like to see the circa 1800’s and dandy unpackaged a bit more. Great video!
Now I can tell you, this video was difficult to do, as coming across as an authority on the matter didn't seem possible---but Hugo insisted. I will reflect on your suggestion and a heartfelt thanks for the encouragement! ~Sonya
@The Vest Practice Yes AND I am curious about your vests as well. We recently recorded an episode on waistcoats, but I would really like to understand the story on the knit vest too. Thank you for your support here and on Patreon! ~Sonya
+SAPTORIAL TALKS - Sonya and Hugo, you two make an awesome/dynamic couple. Brilliant subject with examples, indeed! 'Thank You' much for all that you both present in life with style. Blessings to you both! ~ Benjamin G. / NYC, USA
Most men that I know who happen to have a deep knowledge of gentlemen's clothing style(s) simply do not care what women think of our dress code(s) and associated archetype(s). We wear our clothing for our own personal enjoyment. If, as an ancillary resulting effect, my dressing style communicates that I am unapproachable, then it is excellent that poaching women stay clear. Such an outcome translates into clarity and prevents any misunderstandings which in the current social climate is tantamount. Should I see a woman that I happened to be interested in, she would know and understand in perfect time...
I try to avoid wearing business suits daily through fear of misrepresenting myself but whenever I’ve worn a tie say a shantung with a denim shirt it seems to signal to women that I have a desire to appear elegantly and they seem to respond to this with favourable looks and makes some of them appear to be safer as to what my personality is! They let you in just a little bit more!
What a brilliant and beautiful woman. Spot on! ... I have been saying the very same things for few years now. I would add to that: Work on refining your persona and make sure that your personality is even better. That would simply be: unique brilliance!
Very kind, and thank you for the reminder to keep it in perspective. I agree with you, the type of person you are outweighs 'what you wear' for sure, yet the combination of doing both in a thoughtful way can create a sort of unique brilliance, indeed. Cheers! ~Sonya
I'm def a Dandy with a mix of Dashing. I like mixing unusual colors and I wear vintage wristwatches and vintage sunglasses in my outfits... I just can't do hats in general though.
6:18 The Pragmatic 8:09 The Minimalist 9:18 The Dashing Man 10:54 The Circa 1800 12:52 Countryside Elegant 14:15 Futuristic 15:53 The Panache / The Dandy
I’m only on the second archetype and all I’ve got to say is tear it *ALL* up and give me the *RISK*. I want to feel the creativity flowing on the edge of madness. While everyone else is wearing blue give me RED. A thought is that this may be a part of the composition that brings me the mysterious crowd I’m looking for..
I think mixing switching styles may also be a thing. I for myself, would identify with the circa 1800 and futuristic archetype. Really contrary but history and future are both really interesting for me. It's nice to get some quality input on these in terms of characteristics. Quite inspiring. 👍
Minimalist for sure. Sonya! Hugo! Can you do a video on shirts!? Like the video series you did for the best shoe brands or something? Teach us how to find the right shirt, please!
Very well explained the „problem“ the dashing man has, unfortunately I’m speaking by experience! But also this goes both ways, I more often than I like subconsciously seek women who match this „archetype“ and overlook other women’s companionship.
Hi FG, I find your comment to be intriguing and haven't considered like attracting like, in this category. Thank you for your reply and for triggering new thought! ~Sonya
Great talk as always, and great presentation Sonya! Of the given archetypes I think I most closely resemble #5, whilst I can appreciate a clean smooth look of a pristine suit, I much prefer textured and rougher fabrics as they look much more approachable. I do a lot of the housework at home by the way, my wife has to steal some away from me :) - Han
Adore the comment, and imagine your wife feels grateful, haaa. No. 5 is a charming, comfortable and welcoming look, and it seems like these traits could reflect who you are. Cheers! ~Sonya
The Circa 1800 seems to be inline with who I am - approachable and cerebral. But I just can't imagine myself dressing like this in the office. And a fob watch, lol... 1800's indeed. Although I do like the Vass Oxfords, but they're out of stock. This was a great video; has given me a lot to think about in terms of my personal style and brand.
@@SirMopy ...absolutely, plus SuitSupply usually has on-site alterations---and is especially good for the "fit gentleman" (SS is not as easy to fit men with outside-the-norm body types). ~S
Wow, that Carl Jung was ahead of his time with these 7 stereotypes, pardon me archetypes. Had he been a woman, he might have simplified it to three types: sunglasses men, after-shave men and whiskey men. When Sonya said that Hugo might be more of a "minimalist", I thought that actually he has too much "dandy" for minimalist. On a levels. I mean, "a gentleman never wears brown" and shoes have to be a shade darker than the suit. And outside the countryside we don't wear green. The minimalist - 50 shades of dark blue, white shirts, a red accent and black Oxford shoes.
This is a awesome channel but my question is.. what will a woman do to get these type of archetype of men? What can she bring to the table to soften the edges of the man? What is she bringing to the table to lighting up a mans workload on his quest in to succeed his dreams and goals. Seems like its all about what a man can give to the woman but not the other way around. I fit more The Dandy archetype.
Im goin to wear my suits regardless of the message it sends fk misrepresentation!!! My grandfather taught me what you look like shows what you think about yourself and the world- thats physically you must be physically fit and ready to defend and protect what is yours- what you dress like shows what you want - the vehicle you drive and how you take care of it shows what you think about yourself- the place you live how you keep your yard how you keep you the inside how it smells the kind of interior you design shows how you want your world to be.How you talk shows what you think about the world!

Thank you for your response. You may enjoy reading the PG article "The Man Behind the Clothes" referencing John Henry Newman’s words regarding what makes a true gentleman, from The Idea of a University (1852). Cheers! ~Sonya
Very good info... If I get to mention one thing...I wish you would have looked directly at the camera the whole time.. you have very "magic" eyes.. Thx again for the info..
I’m definitely the circa 1800 style. I’m also little bit into country elegant style....love both, but my personality is definitely more to “circa 1800”. I also loved the recommended button shoe at the end , and would say that this boot is for circa 1800 style ideal as well. The next pair of shoes I want to buy.
@@SARTORIALTALKS Merci de votre réponse! The problem is that even now it’s quite difficult to buy high quality secondhand clothes in Prague. There is just one vintage secondhand for men. It’s possible to order things from eBay or Etsy. The big problem, is that because of brexit and no agreement between the UK and Europe I will have to pay a tax and duty for every piece of clothes for more than 22 euros I order there from the 2nd February. So it’s gonna be even more difficult to buy sartorial clothes in quality I want. And I really hate it.
@@vonvildenschwert3045 Regret for your difficulties ! This is (fairly) new information for us which we will need to check into--just in case you have a link with the specifics about duties and taxes between UK and Europe, it would be nice to have the latest. Thank you for your remarks! ~Sonya & Hugo
@@SARTORIALTALKS Merci!. Firstly i want to say I didn’t realized that you answered me at both of my comments that I wrote at your videos, so it now looks that I wanted to complain from nothing even though I just wanted to write something more about buying vintage clothes at your second video about biggest faults which I commented :-D. Unfortunately I didn’t find any article with conditions dedicated to this issue but what I know, the Uk should be considered as every out EU and Schengen area country. That means you will have to pay a value added tax in hight which is in your country/region plus duty that should be around 10-12 percent. But I don’t know exactly. In every case it makes everything much more complicated and expensive.
The pearls of wisdom that comes out at 17:50 must be the first 'guideline' everything else is trivial and dare say superficial without that 'inner self relaying itself'. Here is my take on what I would like my daughter to assess a man on 1. Clarity of purpose in life. 2. Natural confidence that comes off of 1(never comes off brash or arrogant and always grounded). 3. Personal grooming 4. Body language- fidgety or steady poise and posture(body reflects the mind, mind reflects the body). 5. Dressing appropriate to the occasion. The beauty of the list is it is genderless. Same goes for what a man should look for in a woman. To add on 5, I cringe at men trying hard to imitate the English gentleman in sweltering 40+ degree C in Indian weather. Buffoons in uniforms that have sold their identity. So being sharp is a relative thing based on time, place and occasion.
Understood, yet #6 is rare, so enjoy being rare. Perhaps the reason for the rarity is because most who appear like tech types (if they are tech types) are pressured to dress down, and may succumb to the pressure, even if he or she prefers to dress...simply a theory. ~Sonya
problem with Jung, as with Freud and the entire field of psychoanalysis, there has never been any empirical data to support their claims, which makes it impossible to consider psychoanalysis a science. Anecdotal as it is, I don't know anyone who wanted to sleep with their mother or kill their father in any manner, it's an absurd idea, perhaps it stemmed from Freud's Jewish background with its suppressed sexuality and since most if not all his "patients" shared the same background, they might have shared a specificity he incorrectly projected to all mankind.
you have no idea how much I hate Sigmund Freud I hate anything that has to do with psychology or psychiatry they really think they know it all but they know absolutely nothing and I find it really funny that they gave Sigmund Freud a Nobel prize and almost everything that men said was racist pseudoscience that's what I find so funny about it Sigmund Freud once said that the Irish mind is so primitive that it's impossible to perceive. What a big time racist. And I'm Jewish myself and I don't like him or believe in anything he said. Almost everything he said was based on race or ethnicity. I have known a lot of Jews and none are like that. He just believed he knew it all and he thought he was a real scientist. They shouldscratch his name off of the Nobel prize he never deserved it he was a hardcore racist and all his work is now considered racist philosophy.
@Antonio Giuseppe There is no way in HELL to have an Experiment with psychology every human mind varies person to person the reason why I love Science so much is because Science is something that you do not believe in it is a FACT Laws of Physics are a Fact the Laws of Chemistry are a Fact but with psychology you have to say "just trust me" that's what I don't like about psychology you have to believe in it there is no way in hell to do an experiment with emotions when somebody discovers something they have to reproduce their results for the experiment over and over again and each time they reproduce it has to have the same exact results in order for it to be a Fact but why psychology there's no way to reproduce an experiment and there's no way to say hey look I was right the Motto of Science has always been "See For Yourself" because if you have an enemy that doesn't believe in your work you just say hey "See For Yourself" but with psychology you have to believe in it there is no way to see for yourself there's no way to experiment with people's emotions. Unfortunately psychology is an ART not a Science until psychology can give concrete results then I will see it as a pseudoscience but as of now Physics and Chemistry are the major leagues and psychology is the little leagues and I don't think it will ever become the big leagues. You wasted your money and time on that class should have taken a Science class. Lol
@@chico305SIGMA You are right about the fact that discoveries in psychology are hard to demonstrate. It's because there is no such thing as necessity relationship in psychology. In physics, you can say "Hey look if I drop this apple it will fall, gravity is real beacuse if it wasn't this apple wouldn't fall". In psychology, you can never say "Hey if a man gets raped in his childhood he'll become a rapist" there are no such necessity relationships between psychologic facts. You are wrong about the fact that psychology isn't science though. One of the most popular definitions of the word science is "A coherent body of knowledge relating to certain categories of facts, objects or phenomena obeying laws and/or verified by experimental methods." nothing in this definition says that sciences is the study of necessary laws. If trough experiment we get the fact that 80% of women like well dressed men there is no necessary law (it's not you are a woman then you like well dressed man) but there is still a tendency, a law. Social sciences are all about the tendencies no necessary relationship only general laws of behaviour. Personnaly I think it's even more interesting, it's less predictable, takes more variables in considerations and man the human is a damn mistery. There is another big difference about hard science guys and social science guys, unlike what you said, (good) psychologists are very humble about their own knowledge we know very well that we know nothing about the human mind but isn't it why we should work harder to understand it ? I agree about Freud though a lot of what he said was a big bag of ****. (sry for my spelling I'm not an english born speaker)
Thanks but i have a question.. Why you do not make a video on the style with leather jackets rough tough-looking guy with long boots jeans peacoat scarf with the hat... Or it's not a good choice to wear all these things? Regards
I’m not sure which one I fit in. I wear everything on point with a good fit, good color matching, and classical style except I wear an outdated 90s tie or an outlandish tie. It’s my trade mark. John Bercow of the British House of Commons inspired me to do this. Dashing?
I'm 2 with a bit of 3. Not a fan of too many/flashy accessories. But there is a lot of thought that goes into my socks, pocket square, belt, watch, and shoes. I like to think about what I am going to wear the day before, and lay it out. During the evening, I will make many changes. I've driven home to change...my watch. Is that bad?? If I am out all day, I carry evening wear in the trunk of the car plus shoes with matching belt, a different blazer, but the pants can stay. I also carry a neutral pant and shirt in case something bad happens, like a spill.
So judging by these categories that I love that speaks about my dress style 3, 5, and 7. I would like to incorporate a little bit of C.1800 and the futuristic portions.
You sound like you are likely flexible and diversified in other walks of life as well. It would be curious to see how going even further outside your norm would work out for you. Cheers! Sonya
Great video. Where or how can I find inspiration and examples of how to dress the pragmatic and minimalist way? I am drawn to these styles, but I've no idea of how to begin.
Hi Melvin, welcome and I hope you will find Hugo's video on "buying your first suit". It has been a great success so far, and you may find it of interest. Cheers! ~Sonya Glyn
For snorts and giggles, I figure I am the following precise mix: 23% The Pragmatic 07% The Minimalist 04% The Dashing Man 27% The Circa 1800 30% Countryside Elegant 02% Futuristic 07% The Panache / The Dandy So what I need to know is: What shoe should I wear? BTW C 1800 style will be very big in Europe this winter as people recall the days of cold houses and lack of central heating. Three piece heavy wool attire to keep in the body heat should be "all the rage"...
Could you be so kindly, describe just a little more, the differences among Dashing, Circa 1800 and Dandy? Thank you.....before I forgot....Very useful insights.....
As @knightkrawler mentioned, no pressure to force a definition; my own interpretation is 'Circa 1800' is similar to old Hollywood style, 'Dashing' encompasses clever use of accessories while not going overboard/staying classic, and 'Dandy' uses complicated style elements which are presented as highly cohesive. Thank you for commenting and cheers! ~Sonya
When you dress great, you feel great. Buy three to four different suits. A black, a gray, a blue and any other option you’d like. Then two to three dress shirts, three different ties, dress socks and finally a pair of black and brown dress shoes. Make sure they are fitted, not lose or too tight. You’ll feel like a million bucks! Trust me
I was blessed with beeing the first to see this video. Absolutely wonderful. Hugo and Sonya remain classic and better dressed than 90 percent of "celebrities" who are trying to reinvent the wheel. Keep going and teach men and women about elegance! Best regards from Croatia!

This channel has given me so much insight and I was inspired by the immense passion you radiate in every video. I also have great respect for your efforts to reply to so many comments which demonstrates and strengthens the sense of community. As someone just starting his sartorial journey (and a german on top of it), it greatly encourages me to be warmly invited, independent on "where I am on this personal journey" as Sonya put it in one of the videos.
If I may request a topic, it would be pants. It is an important part that often seems to be overlooked.

A lot of women I know would simply like men to shower and shave on a regular basis!
Great point regarding correlating outward dress styles with levels of "outgoingness", for lack of a better term. Thank you. ~Sonya
This is the best video that sartorial talks have done for a long time..... and defiantly the button boot is my favourite footwear out of all of these....
This reply means a lot as I complained a bit during the production out of self-doubt, haha...so thank you for writing. Cheers! ~Sonya
Great video. Always look forward to a new episode of Sartorial Talks in my inbox! Cheers
Glad to read this and thank you! ~Sonya
I really enjoy how this video talks about natural aspects of how women interpret a man's presentation. Extremely informative.
Thank you. I attempted a level of objectivity and am appreciative of your comment. Cheers! ~Sonya
I love the number 9...so I'm glad I am called "1800"; I like the term "composed" as we do have music that plays when we enter a room. In the 80s I dressed in "Futuristic" style, and yes I had a WW2 coat
I could not stop smiling wachting the video. The shoe recoment-ation of Hugo absolutely nailed it. Me and my bro's very often "judging" men by the type of shoes they wear- with more or less the same result. Good job!
So nice of you to say, and I have to agree in regard to the power of a great pair of shoes to transform a man's appearance, no matter what garments he is wearing. But the greatest thing is to see a person feel better when he feels good about his shoes. I can't explain it but have seen the phenomenon repeat itself. ~Sonya
@@SARTORIALTALKS thank you for taking time to answer! I totally agree with you. Ps: the most inspiring part of the "parisian gentlemen" was definitely chapter3 "of shoes and men" -Peter
it is important to dress differently. I always dress like Tommy Shelby from Peaky Blinders, makes you feel unique and comfortable.
Three peice suit everyday?
@@justcaused6182 Yes correct.
@@justcaused6182 You can go with a 2 piece suit or a double button suit for everyday too. You can go to the opera buy the 500$ seats and go in white tie or little less formal black tie.
You definitely can. But sadly it's not the golden days of man's style so everybody is wearing joggers and T-shirt. If tomorrow they were to start wearing suits as casual clothing, I'd be the first to jump on that train. I love suits. Sadly I feel alienated whenever I dress up for an event, because I will most likely outdress everyone.
@@justcaused6182 It's same for me too. I really enjoy wearing suits but if I were too much overdressed than other people in my class (I'm high school 20yrs old) I'd would look weird. I wear casual, sometimes business casual - button down and still outdress most of the classmates. But I've reached a level where I would feel extremely uncomfortable wearing sweatpants, nikes and hoodies. It would be as uncomfortable for me as if I were only dressed in swimming trunks. But when you walking outside you can dress in a suit and you will look good, no one will make fun of you. In class I've seen professors take me for more mature and respect me more than others. I like to be 2 levels dressed up than others. For example if someone is wearing hoodie I'll be wearing a polo shirt or a dress shirt, if people around me will be in casual suits with no neckwear, I'll go more formal and wear a tie. I always try to be well dressed but not over dressed because that would not make me look well dressed, but weird. What do you think?
Thank you for telling us the numbers who took part in the survey.
A fellow "analytical". Nice to have you here and thank you for your reply. Cheers! ~Sonya
Fun - and educational. This is a great topic that is deeper than first meets the eye. Great video.
Good day Mr Jacomet and Ms Nicholson. I can't recall how I've come across your videos but it has been extremely educational. Such a different way to view men's clothing in this fast fashion, throw away culture. If possible I would appreciate your opinion and advice.
I live in a warm climate which makes dressing well difficult from a practical perspective. Added to this is that the standard manner of men's dressing here (South Africa) is extremely casual. When one aims to dress well one is perceived as trying too hard, you certainly stand out from the crowd.
There are many who dress well, but sadly sacrifice so much to do so. Many go into debt to acquire good clothes .
Many guys come across as focusing solely on clothes and appearance. Which is why some guys don't aim to dress well as they do not want to appear vain/proud(sadly that was my perspective).
What I appreciate about your channel and approach is that vanity and pride do not come across at all.
What are your best suggestions for dressing well in warm climates?
What would be a good start for a young man aiming to dress better? It would be great to afford the best but that is beyond many budgets.
Grateful for your work and long may it continue.
God bless
Look at what works in Miami
A high twist open weave summer blazer could change a person's life for the better in a warm climate ! God bless you and sorry the the very late reply. Yours, Sonya and Hugo
One of my favorite episodes... Thank you Sonya
I feel like little bit of all these on occasion. Great breakdown!
Thank you, Jay. Why not embrace variety in this way? Cheers! ~Sonya
I feel that I may be a mixture of the dashing, circa 1800 man and the countryside gentleman. I tend to make my own style. Mixing the silver pocket watch with a modern suit and waistcoat. But always warm. Always joyful.
Still a gentleman none the less.
Don't stop doing what you're doing. Us dandies are a dying breed.
My daughter is 5 and I've already told her if a young man asks her on a date and is wearing tracksuit bottoms, to walk away 😂 setting the bar high now.
Ps she can date at 30 😜
Hahaha, I'm sure she'll remember this ! Cheers, Hugo
@Armando Sturzenegger calm down.
At 30 ? Sounds overly possessive of your daughter
Omg 🤣😆🤣😆😆You sounds like mom and I am 24. She is crazy like you.
lol you should be careful of doing that, kids doing the opposite of what you say :)
Well done Sonya. Original content, great presentation, very impressive!
Really appreciate this kind reply, Dan ! Sonya
I am not a scholar in this field but based on my experience, women notice when you „just“ take care of you and your wardrobe. I don‘t need to wear a suit at work or when I go out; but I want to. Just to make me feel good, have a good time and of course, people notice that you feel good. I can dress more than decent with a pair of jeans, a shirt and a pair of derby shoes or Chelsea boots (which I love). I would say, that I fall in the minimalist category. I am 6‘4“. So I stand out physically, so regarding wardrobe, watches and shoes I try to keep it simple.
in a very professional way, as a fashion lover and photographer, I cant stop listening to you and taking my eyes off you.. Very well spoken and great information relayed over. Thank you so much. I'm learning quite a bit. Keep up the videos please.
Hi PPM, You message fuels me to push further and do better. Thank you so much. Cheers from Bourgogne! ~Sonya
SARTORIAL TALKS thank you ! Michael
I'd like to see her use photos of men wearing sneakers to describe how to use various types of pants like light blue, dark blue, grey, light brown, dark brown, white, burgundy, olive, denim, joggers paired with various shirt types, and extremely importantly, how to make decisions related to complimentary colours, analogous colours, triadic, earth tones, pastel, monochrome, textures, patterns vs. solids. I'm 35 and I'm fairly advanced, but I need extremely accurate and precise information about how to extend into the next levels of sneaker expression. As an example, I'd love to hear her talk about Nike Blazer Low GT, Nike Blazer Mid, Nike Air Max 90, and Nike Air Jordan 4... I consider those shoe silhouettes to be art pieces, and they are in my opinion fabulous starting points for some outfits, but I'm not sure how to decide if I want to aim for 2, 3 or 4 colours, and where, because splashes of colour in the watch, belt, socks, hats. My hair is blond, so I want her to talk about hair colour as well. I hope my "request" is sartorial-grade. Any videos over time will be much appreciated. I would love her to take a deep dive into those above mentioned shoe models and figure out what makes them tick for the female mind.
Would be very interesting to have the same conversation again today after the pandemic/working from home has driven forward a 'dress down' culture.
Very good point ! Sonya
Thanks so much Sonya for the amazing way you continue teach and share from a womans point of view on mens fashion. I continue to learn alot from your video and look forward to the next one. Have a great day.
Mike
This message means a lot, and I appreciate the time you took to say you learn from our talks, and will continue to listen. ~Sonya
I agree 100%. That being said, Today I went to the grocery with old sweats, although they were pressed with a crease (I was moving stuff), a white t-shirt and a Ralph Lauren denim shirt worn as a jacket, clean white tennis shoes, my hair is curly and neat, my hands are manicured, a wood bracelet watch and wearing two wood rings (middle and pinky.) An attractive woman my age flirted with me. Bottom line, sometime if everything else is tight they see through the other stuff.
Is she tight?
@@labrat5262 I meant right but yes, turned out she was tight as well.
Loved the insights, especially with the nod towards psychology. As a photographer, colour theory is something that always fascinates me and where you mention red, I agree 100%. It's the same reason that red lipstick is popular in women, or you see lots of reds in flamenco dresses to really bring out the passion! Rich colours in general work well I think (golds, browns, orange, the colours of autumn for that 'snuggle by the fireplace' feeling) and are, perhaps, a subject for a whole video or book of their own!
Great episode! Loved it!
Now I am inspired to try a splash of more color and see what happens. Thank you--and the red in your thumbnail does relay a nice energy, so bravo! ~Sonya
Yet another great video Sonya. Love Hugo’s shoe recommendations as well.
So glad you replied! ~Sonya
I would suggest that you do an episode or series on each archetype. I especially would like to see the circa 1800’s and dandy unpackaged a bit more. Great video!
Now I can tell you, this video was difficult to do, as coming across as an authority on the matter didn't seem possible---but Hugo insisted. I will reflect on your suggestion and a heartfelt thanks for the encouragement! ~Sonya
@The Vest Practice Yes AND I am curious about your vests as well. We recently recorded an episode on waistcoats, but I would really like to understand the story on the knit vest too. Thank you for your support here and on Patreon! ~Sonya
+SAPTORIAL TALKS - Sonya and Hugo, you two make an awesome/dynamic couple. Brilliant subject with examples, indeed! 'Thank You' much for all that you both present in life with style. Blessings to you both!
~ Benjamin G. / NYC, USA
God bless you Benjamin -- you encourage us and we are thankful. Hugo and Sonya
A milion dollars advice, I'm putting a smile on my face, no more pocker face, I love this channel, so helpful and informative, keep it up.
Thanks for the insights Sonya. Was hooked hearing Carl Jung mentioned 1 minute in.
I'm glad you replied David and we will try to add more outside references of this genre in the future. Cheers! ~Sonya
Because of Jordan Peterson?
Most men that I know who happen to have a deep knowledge of gentlemen's clothing style(s) simply do not care what women think of our dress code(s) and associated archetype(s). We wear our clothing for our own personal enjoyment. If, as an ancillary resulting effect, my dressing style communicates that I am unapproachable, then it is excellent that poaching women stay clear. Such an outcome translates into clarity and prevents any misunderstandings which in the current social climate is tantamount. Should I see a woman that I happened to be interested in, she would know and understand in perfect time...
I try to avoid wearing business suits daily through fear of misrepresenting myself but whenever I’ve worn a tie say a shantung with a denim shirt it seems to signal to women that I have a desire to appear elegantly and they seem to respond to this with favourable looks and makes some of them appear to be safer as to what my personality is! They let you in just a little bit more!
Beautiful gestures; I hope you continue. Cheers from Bourgogne, ~Sonya
What a brilliant and beautiful woman. Spot on! ... I have been saying the very same things for few years now. I would add to that: Work on refining your persona and make sure that your personality is even better. That would simply be: unique brilliance!
Very kind, and thank you for the reminder to keep it in perspective. I agree with you, the type of person you are outweighs 'what you wear' for sure, yet the combination of doing both in a thoughtful way can create a sort of unique brilliance, indeed. Cheers! ~Sonya
I'm def a Dandy with a mix of Dashing. I like mixing unusual colors and I wear vintage wristwatches and vintage sunglasses in my outfits... I just can't do hats in general though.
Hugo does not have a "hat head" as well...so great you can unleash yourself and enjoy expressing who you are through your clothing. ~Sonya
I love the intro to these videos!
6:18 The Pragmatic
8:09 The Minimalist
9:18 The Dashing Man
10:54 The Circa 1800
12:52 Countryside Elegant
14:15 Futuristic
15:53 The Panache / The Dandy
I'm grateful for your dashing man recommendation, thank you Sonya!
I’m only on the second archetype and all I’ve got to say is tear it *ALL* up and give me the *RISK*. I want to feel the creativity flowing on the edge of madness. While everyone else is wearing blue give me RED. A thought is that this may be a part of the composition that brings me the mysterious crowd I’m looking for..
Then I hope you go for this approach---the artist's way...superb! ~Sonya
Thank You Sonya, it was an excellent and such an engaging video.pleasure listening to you and Hugo as always.
Adore the encouragement; thank you so much. ~Sonya
This is so good, love to you guys from Chicago
I think mixing switching styles may also be a thing. I for myself, would identify with the circa 1800 and futuristic archetype. Really contrary but history and future are both really interesting for me. It's nice to get some quality input on these in terms of characteristics. Quite inspiring. 👍
A valid point---I haven't considered mixing styles, but like the thought of the possibilities. Clever !
Sonya
Excellent, I'm new to the channel and I like this video
I'm so glad to read this. Thank you ! ~Sonya Glyn
The second she said archetype you know she likes Carl jung
Busted...I guess...He just helped me get started with this one. Cheers from Bourgogne. ~ Sonya
Minimalist for sure. Sonya! Hugo! Can you do a video on shirts!? Like the video series you did for the best shoe brands or something? Teach us how to find the right shirt, please!
I will try to remind Hugo to do this--good suggestion! ~S
Very well explained the „problem“ the dashing man has, unfortunately I’m speaking by experience!
But also this goes both ways, I more often than I like subconsciously seek women who match this „archetype“ and overlook other women’s companionship.
Hi FG,
I find your comment to be intriguing and haven't considered like attracting like, in this category. Thank you for your reply and for triggering new thought! ~Sonya
Great talk as always, and great presentation Sonya! Of the given archetypes I think I most closely resemble #5, whilst I can appreciate a clean smooth look of a pristine suit, I much prefer textured and rougher fabrics as they look much more approachable. I do a lot of the housework at home by the way, my wife has to steal some away from me :) - Han
Adore the comment, and imagine your wife feels grateful, haaa.
No. 5 is a charming, comfortable and welcoming look, and it seems like these traits could reflect who you are. Cheers! ~Sonya
@@SARTORIALTALKS Thank you for your kind reply Sonya, I'll try my best to stick to those words!
I like dressing in 19th century clothing... my style is on par with Wild Bill Hickok and Doc Holliday
Edwardian/Western Victorian is pretty greart. I'm a big fan too, always wear suspenders and waistcoat.
As Sonya described mulitple personas, I literally thought about some of my friends lol.
The Circa 1800 seems to be inline with who I am - approachable and cerebral. But I just can't imagine myself dressing like this in the office. And a fob watch, lol... 1800's indeed. Although I do like the Vass Oxfords, but they're out of stock.
This was a great video; has given me a lot to think about in terms of my personal style and brand.
Yea it.s quite amazing how many women find you interesting when you are dressed in a £5000 bespoke suit.....
Haha, sorry for that! ~Sonya
Better $500 worn well than $5000 worn like the rest
@@Gilamath. I do understand your point. ~S
@@SirMopy ...absolutely, plus SuitSupply usually has on-site alterations---and is especially good for the "fit gentleman" (SS is not as easy to fit men with outside-the-norm body types). ~S
In my country where it's cheaper, I got my bespoke suit for 200 dollars. Tailored personally.
Wonderful video that was very well delivered.
Great content and very nicely delivered Sonya!
Thank you very much, John. ~Sonya
Wow, that Carl Jung was ahead of his time with these 7 stereotypes, pardon me archetypes. Had he been a woman, he might have simplified it to three types: sunglasses men, after-shave men and whiskey men. When Sonya said that Hugo might be more of a "minimalist", I thought that actually he has too much "dandy" for minimalist. On a levels. I mean, "a gentleman never wears brown" and shoes have to be a shade darker than the suit. And outside the countryside we don't wear green. The minimalist - 50 shades of dark blue, white shirts, a red accent and black Oxford shoes.
This is a awesome channel but my question is.. what will a woman do to get these type of archetype of men? What can she bring to the table to soften the edges of the man? What is she bringing to the table to lighting up a mans workload on his quest in to succeed his dreams and goals. Seems like its all about what a man can give to the woman but not the other way around. I fit more The Dandy archetype.
This is such an open ended subject, but very helpful.
Indeed, yet I'm glad your happy. ~Sonya
@@SARTORIALTALKS always enjoy sartorial talks.
Im goin to wear my suits regardless of the message it sends fk misrepresentation!!! My grandfather taught me what you look like shows what you think about yourself and the world- thats physically you must be physically fit and ready to defend and protect what is yours- what you dress like shows what you want - the vehicle you drive and how you take care of it shows what you think about yourself- the place you live how you keep your yard how you keep you the inside how it smells the kind of interior you design shows how you want your world to be.How you talk shows what you think about the world!

Once again thank you so much, you did a wonderful job explaining what a women think. Nice to know. :)
I am really glad to know your impression. Thank you and cheers! ~Sonya
I’m definitely the circa 1800 style. I’m also little bit into country elegant style....love both, but my personality is definitely more to “circa 1800”. I also loved the recommended button shoe at the end , and would say that this boot is for circa 1800 style ideal as well. The next pair of shoes I want to buy.
Thank you T for sharing your thoughts. Hugo & Sonya
@@SARTORIALTALKS Merci de votre réponse! The problem is that even now it’s quite difficult to buy high quality secondhand clothes in Prague. There is just one vintage secondhand for men. It’s possible to order things from eBay or Etsy. The big problem, is that because of brexit and no agreement between the UK and Europe I will have to pay a tax and duty for every piece of clothes for more than 22 euros I order there from the 2nd February. So it’s gonna be even more difficult to buy sartorial clothes in quality I want. And I really hate it.
@@vonvildenschwert3045 Regret for your difficulties ! This is (fairly) new information for us which we will need to check into--just in case you have a link with the specifics about duties and taxes between UK and Europe, it would be nice to have the latest. Thank you for your remarks! ~Sonya & Hugo
@@SARTORIALTALKS Merci!. Firstly i want to say I didn’t realized that you answered me at both of my comments that I wrote at your videos, so it now looks that I wanted to complain from nothing even though I just wanted to write something more about buying vintage clothes at your second video about biggest faults which I commented :-D. Unfortunately I didn’t find any article with conditions dedicated to this issue but what I know, the Uk should be considered as every out EU and Schengen area country. That means you will have to pay a value added tax in hight which is in your country/region plus duty that should be around 10-12 percent. But I don’t know exactly. In every case it makes everything much more complicated and expensive.
The pearls of wisdom that comes out at 17:50 must be the first 'guideline' everything else is trivial and dare say superficial without that 'inner self relaying itself'. Here is my take on what I would like my daughter to assess a man on 1. Clarity of purpose in life. 2. Natural confidence that comes off of 1(never comes off brash or arrogant and always grounded). 3. Personal grooming 4. Body language- fidgety or steady poise and posture(body reflects the mind, mind reflects the body). 5. Dressing appropriate to the occasion. The beauty of the list is it is genderless. Same goes for what a man should look for in a woman. To add on 5, I cringe at men trying hard to imitate the English gentleman in sweltering 40+ degree C in Indian weather. Buffoons in uniforms that have sold their identity. So being sharp is a relative thing based on time, place and occasion.
This is a very reflective response and I enjoyed reading it very much. Hope to hear more from you in the comment section. Cheers ! ~Sonya Glyn
Women perceive a man in a suit similarly to the way a man perceives a woman in lingerie.
That's a long shot my friend ! Best, Hugo
Liked the video before watching it so I can't like it when Jung was mentioned.
One of the best videos so far.
Haaa, I understand and thank you for watching! ~Sonya
I think I fall into that #6, but try to be more rugged like the countryside, and wish I could pull off the hats like the dandy.
Understood, yet #6 is rare, so enjoy being rare. Perhaps the reason for the rarity is because most who appear like tech types (if they are tech types) are pressured to dress down, and may succumb to the pressure, even if he or she prefers to dress...simply a theory. ~Sonya
I’m the sweatpants at Walmart type of guy.
problem with Jung, as with Freud and the entire field of psychoanalysis, there has never been any empirical data to support their claims, which makes it impossible to consider psychoanalysis a science. Anecdotal as it is, I don't know anyone who wanted to sleep with their mother or kill their father in any manner, it's an absurd idea, perhaps it stemmed from Freud's Jewish background with its suppressed sexuality and since most if not all his "patients" shared the same background, they might have shared a specificity he incorrectly projected to all mankind.
you have no idea how much I hate Sigmund Freud I hate anything that has to do with psychology or psychiatry they really think they know it all but they know absolutely nothing and I find it really funny that they gave Sigmund Freud a Nobel prize and almost everything that men said was racist pseudoscience that's what I find so funny about it Sigmund Freud once said that the Irish mind is so primitive that it's impossible to perceive. What a big time racist. And I'm Jewish myself and I don't like him or believe in anything he said. Almost everything he said was based on race or ethnicity. I have known a lot of Jews and none are like that. He just believed he knew it all and he thought he was a real scientist. They shouldscratch his name off of the Nobel prize he never deserved it he was a hardcore racist and all his work is now considered racist philosophy.
@Antonio Giuseppe There is no way in HELL to have an Experiment with psychology every human mind varies person to person the reason why I love Science so much is because Science is something that you do not believe in it is a FACT Laws of Physics are a Fact the Laws of Chemistry are a Fact but with psychology you have to say "just trust me" that's what I don't like about psychology you have to believe in it there is no way in hell to do an experiment with emotions when somebody discovers something they have to reproduce their results for the experiment over and over again and each time they reproduce it has to have the same exact results in order for it to be a Fact but why psychology there's no way to reproduce an experiment and there's no way to say hey look I was right the Motto of Science has always been "See For Yourself" because if you have an enemy that doesn't believe in your work you just say hey "See For Yourself" but with psychology you have to believe in it there is no way to see for yourself there's no way to experiment with people's emotions. Unfortunately psychology is an ART not a Science until psychology can give concrete results then I will see it as a pseudoscience but as of now Physics and Chemistry are the major leagues and psychology is the little leagues and I don't think it will ever become the big leagues. You wasted your money and time on that class should have taken a Science class. Lol
@@chico305SIGMA You are right about the fact that discoveries in psychology are hard to demonstrate. It's because there is no such thing as necessity relationship in psychology. In physics, you can say "Hey look if I drop this apple it will fall, gravity is real beacuse if it wasn't this apple wouldn't fall". In psychology, you can never say "Hey if a man gets raped in his childhood he'll become a rapist" there are no such necessity relationships between psychologic facts.
You are wrong about the fact that psychology isn't science though. One of the most popular definitions of the word science is "A coherent body of knowledge relating to certain categories of facts, objects or phenomena obeying laws and/or verified by experimental methods." nothing in this definition says that sciences is the study of necessary laws. If trough experiment we get the fact that 80% of women like well dressed men there is no necessary law (it's not you are a woman then you like well dressed man) but there is still a tendency, a law. Social sciences are all about the tendencies no necessary relationship only general laws of behaviour. Personnaly I think it's even more interesting, it's less predictable, takes more variables in considerations and man the human is a damn mistery. There is another big difference about hard science guys and social science guys, unlike what you said, (good) psychologists are very humble about their own knowledge we know very well that we know nothing about the human mind but isn't it why we should work harder to understand it ? I agree about Freud though a lot of what he said was a big bag of ****.
(sry for my spelling I'm not an english born speaker)
Thanks but i have a question.. Why you do not make a video on the style with leather jackets rough tough-looking guy with long boots jeans peacoat scarf with the hat... Or it's not a good choice to wear all these things? Regards
It's not a question of being a good choice or not. It's because we talk here about classic style. Cheers, Sonya
So I'm somewhere between dashing and futuristic, but mostly futuristic. I think both can be heavily casual (mostly the futuristic).
I’m not sure which one I fit in. I wear everything on point with a good fit, good color matching, and classical style except I wear an outdated 90s tie or an outlandish tie. It’s my trade mark. John Bercow of the British House of Commons inspired me to do this.
Dashing?
Likely Dashing---and a clever approach I think, if you can balance most other elements with particularly good taste. ~Sonya
I'm 2 with a bit of 3. Not a fan of too many/flashy accessories. But there is a lot of thought that goes into my socks, pocket square, belt, watch, and shoes. I like to think about what I am going to wear the day before, and lay it out. During the evening, I will make many changes.
I've driven home to change...my watch. Is that bad?? If I am out all day, I carry evening wear in the trunk of the car plus shoes with matching belt, a different blazer, but the pants can stay. I also carry a neutral pant and shirt in case something bad happens, like a spill.
You do sound like a minimalist at heart. Thank you for your reply. ~Sonya
Thank you Sonia, this presentation is very informative!
Thanks for your reply Luvensky ! Sonya
So judging by these categories that I love that speaks about my dress style 3, 5, and 7. I would like to incorporate a little bit of C.1800 and the futuristic portions.
You sound like you are likely flexible and diversified in other walks of life as well. It would be curious to see how going even further outside your norm would work out for you. Cheers! Sonya
I love your hair
I find the Vass lasts a tad too bulky but the leather and suede on those Oxfords look out of this world yummy.
Like a professional actress, and a scientist, wow.
Great video. Where or how can I find inspiration and examples of how to dress the pragmatic and minimalist way? I am drawn to these styles, but I've no idea of how to begin.
Hi Melvin, welcome and I hope you will find Hugo's video on "buying your first suit". It has been a great success so far, and you may find it of interest. Cheers! ~Sonya Glyn

Well I just figured out style wise I'm pragmatic, now all I need is the finances to buy the clothes to look the part. Ty great vid.
Fantastic to read Juan. All the best on your personal sartorial journey as a pragmatic! ~Sonya
For snorts and giggles, I figure I am the following precise mix:
23% The Pragmatic
07% The Minimalist
04% The Dashing Man
27% The Circa 1800
30% Countryside Elegant
02% Futuristic
07% The Panache / The Dandy
So what I need to know is:
What shoe should I wear?
BTW C 1800 style will be very big in Europe this winter as people recall the days of cold houses and lack of central heating. Three piece heavy wool attire to keep in the body heat should be "all the rage"...
Well you should wear... what you want! 😉 Cheers, Sonya

Could you be so kindly, describe just a little more, the differences among Dashing, Circa 1800 and Dandy? Thank you.....before I forgot....Very useful insights.....
If you need the differences explained more, you might incorporate aspects of them all, which is not a bad thing.

As @knightkrawler mentioned, no pressure to force a definition; my own interpretation is 'Circa 1800' is similar to old Hollywood style, 'Dashing' encompasses clever use of accessories while not going overboard/staying classic, and 'Dandy' uses complicated style elements which are presented as highly cohesive. Thank you for commenting and cheers! ~Sonya
I'm defiantly a mix of circa 1800, futurist, and panache
