Lil’ cross-post from Lemmy.ca.
With women’s fashion, it’s an easy one with pockets and for some probably less sheer/thin or tight-fitting clothing depending on their preferences, but for men…?
What would you like to see done differently in men’s fashion?
You know, thinking about this… men’s clothing seems so diverse, it seems to avoid a lot of the issues that women’s fashion suffers from.
There’s a huge range from cheap to absurdly expensive; you can get jeans for $9 with Kohl’s cash or $9,000 from Chrome Hearts.
There’s a huge range in functionality; I’ve seen designers lean into hyper utilitarianism and ridiculous impracticality.
There’s a massive range in aesthetic; guys could wear Online Ceramics on Tuesday and Stefano Ricci on Thursday… no one would bat an eye.
I never really thought about it, but it does seem like guys have so much more flexibility IMO. And pockets.
If I had to change anything, I think that cheap IG-driven “built for you” suit manufacturers (Indochino, Proper Cloth, Sene) are kinda corny and predatory on young guys who don’t know better. Similar to luxury whitelabeled Fossil watches and Luxottica glasses in a way. More marketing, really.
Huh, this is a pretty different perspective from the other cross-posts of this. Thanks!
I think you hit on a good point regarding the cheap fashion you mention (I think it may fall under the fast fashion trends you can see some videos on?), which I think is really screwing people over across the board in terms of clothing choices by providing shoddy products.
