You Need To Widen Your Horizons...And The Size Of Your Pants!

July 1, 2021•By Kriena

Listen up Dudes! There is a lot going on style wise. Are you keeping up? No worries, that is my job.

From Slim to Relaxed

I have been preaching at the altar of Slim for years now. It was time for all of you to get rid of those ill fitting clothes and bring it all in a little. Baggy clothes were adding lbs to you all that were not there. Who needs that? Most of these clothes (that I tossed out of your closets) were dated and not doing you any favors.

So why am I talking about "The Big Fit" and clothes that have a little more room? Styles change and the world keeps moving and you need to keep up. I will help you.

Navigating the New Landscape

I know this can be confusing. To add to that, many physical stores have closed and e-commerce is growing. This is hard to navigate for most people, especially guys (sorry fellas). That is why I have a job. It is tempting to subscribe to one of the direct to consumer brands like Untuckit or Bonobos. These are both great brands, but if you want to look current, individual, and upgrade quality a bit, there are other ways.

What's Fresh for 2021

•

A great single pleat pant looks fresh again, maybe even a double if you know what you are doing

•

There are oversized polos that look amazing

•

Camp shirts never looked better

•

Softly tailored jackets worn just a little slouchy seem totally cool

Street style and music are some of the biggest (and my favorite) influences on fashion. Most of my clients have been influenced by Ralph Lauren as well as Run DMC and the Beastie Boys.

Questlove is one of my biggest inspirations for just about everything. Always looking fly and totally pulled together in Blazers, Hoodies, Graphic Tees, and Suits. Melding the world of Comme de Garçon and Hip Hop in his own way. Guys, he's 50, not 25. This can be pulled off at any age if done right.

A bigger fit is correct for anyone as long as it is the right size or tailored correctly. Now let's widen our horizons. Ha Ha.

Ready to Update Your Look?

I'll help you navigate the shift to relaxed fits while keeping you looking sharp and current.
