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?
Something that’s inexpensive, comfortable, and socially acceptable. I could not give a fuck less what it looks like. I don’t think a $5k suit shows that I know what I am doing; in fact, it suggests the opposite. Someone that purchases a $5k suit is bad with money. I’m not.
It’s probably just a me thing, but I would love to see in the workforce a shift back to the 60s in style.
As someone in their mid-twenties, I like the idea of in an office setting looking your absolute best or when you are serving someone at a store or restaurant/fast food place looking slightly nicer.
As someone who has had to do that, no, it needed to go away. I get wanting to look nice, but clothes need to be practical too. There's not much point to it when you're setting at a desk looking at PC monitor all day. It's expensive to buy, and expensive to keep clean. And back in the 60s it wasn't 45c in the shade either. Making employees wear suits and ties like back then is apt to kill a few people.
Variation and color. I have the choice.of three minutely different collars and it can be black, blue, or gray. I want tangerine, asymmetric, with an ascot.
I’d change everything! Women’s fashion has so many different sewing techniques and styles - maybe 10% of those are in men’s fashion. Give men lettuce hems and dropped waists! Princess seams and tulip sleeves! Make fashion unisex!
As an almost 50yo dad in decent shape my options for casual wear are limited. If I start dressing more trendy I look like I'm trying to be young. If I dress too comfortable I look like I'm giving up. Pretty much the only thing we can get away with is jeans and a black or white t-shirt. Or some non descript shirt. Buying shorts is maddening because cargo shorts are "out" and everything else is too "cool". Everything ends up being boring.
I've resorted to buying better quality because it at least makes me feel I'm trying. But it's still just ... boring.
Wait, cargo shorts are ‘out’? Shit. That’s like most of my shorts lol, they’re the best. For reference I’m 17 but not particularly fashion aware. Most of what I wear is robotics club t-shirt plus cargo shorts, jeans, or cargo pants. So don’t feel bad about what you wear, just wear what’s comfortable and you like.
If you care about fashion, everything will go out of style every now and then. If you like cargo shorts, wear them. There’s no reason to cater to someone elses gatekeeping. If you think that they don’t fit your look, then that’s a completely different issue.
But also pairing with a robotics club t-shirt is about as good as it gets for cargo shorts. I’ve seen plenty of grown men rocking that uniform. If you’re into robotics, having all those pockets makes sense 😅
Normalise Roman style tunics. The whole thing is just a rectangle with a slit (for the neck) and sewing (for the sides), with two optional sleeves, and fastened to the waist with a belt, it doesn’t get simpler than that.
Also undyed clothes becoming a thing. What’s wrong with raw colours?
Formalwear for when it is hot outside. Like a summer wedding or something. It’s always fuckin miserable going to those kind of events sweating the whole time
