god models are so young looking. it's sad how old these kids make me feel at 24. dior homme is probably my favorite menswear now, though it is for the younger crowd

Why do some of you have a problem with three-button jackets? I am of the opinion that a well-cut three-button jacket is incapable of falling out of style completely (like a Beethoven sonata, perhaps): at its most unfashionable it looks unoriginal but stylish; at its most fashionable it looks effortlessly smart. That uppermost Dior Homme jacket looks like shit, though.

3 button jackets? I ws kinda joking, but it's an old argument for me, coming up as a rocker ( two button ) as opposed to the mods ( 3 button ). And abject jealousy that any 3 button jacket makes me look like a ponce, as opposed to the fey lothario that they're meant to.
God Imitation Of Christ! I did a thing with them once in Brazil, I like that lot, anyone know what they're doing now? I always thought they were gonna run the world, but then I once thought that about Harmony Korine n all.
For fashion for small people, I like Comme de Garcons. Dior is the only thing rocking for young men at the moment though, you're totally on the money there nomad. But you have to be 6 foot.
sorry not understanding the local color here: what does "ponce" and "lothario" mean?
most of my jackets fit like this:
a few more comfy like this one:

Sadly, the most comfortable pair of clothing posted so far probably is Bruno’s buttoned-up white vest with kung-fu pants thingy. Sorry Zhao, but you slim-fitting jackets—despite looking fabulous—don’t nearly entice me to the same degree. Where are the really comfortable clothes which look smart, I wonder? Or is it perhaps that the ache-and-blister inducing clothes are attractive precisely because they are not comfortable? But that sounds odd too: surely there must be a widespread demand for comfy-yet-tidy clothes?

Actually, I was quite pleased when one of my less crap haircuts was described as making me look like a maltese ponce.

i wouldn't be caught dead in any of what has been posted except dunhill, which i will never afford anyway.
sometimes i think the less flaboyant the clothing, the more likely the person is interesting. you wouldn't believe the stories i've heard from random people on the street or in bars, people you wouldn't notice if they were sitting next to you.
i like the way morty feldman dressed
and mies van der rohe
they both looked very comfortable in what they wore.
boy george looks fucking great here.
on to women. i find most women can wear anything and look great but i have my preferences.
i've always had an intense like/fetish for single piece black dresses and pearls around the neck. this combination makes me want to enslave continents, destroy mountains, etc.
i like floral prints and patterns
and pious, almost nunnish clothes
bracelets
qipaos
light blouses. the list is endless.
on reflection, the first two emmanuelle films are a synthesis of everything i like.

a-ha! this is exactly what I'm talking about, and would like to have more discussion on. finally someone takes up this issue.
it is certainly true to an extent - intellectuals should look drab and boring, and only shallow, dumb people are allowed to keep up with style and delight in appearances. this is the stereotype, and stereotypes are always, atleast somewhat based on reality.
but fuck that shit. I for one am here to fight it. why can't I be interesting AND looking fucking great at the same time? no reason at all. and I refuse to subscribe to both the anti-fashion attitudes of "the underground" or "the academia", AND the anti-intellectualism found in "mainstream" culture.
further, I suspect that this is only a recent polarization, many interesting and noteworthy people of the past, authors, artists, musicians, all looked great and certainly kept up with the latest fashion of their times.
you can look as sloppy/comfortable as you like, but I won't stereotype you as "intellectual" or "interesting". on the flip, don't stereotype me as stupid or shallow for cultivating high fashion.
