Victorian Clothing Style For Men

Image
During the 1840s, men wore tight-fitting, calf length frock coats and a waistcoat or vest. The vests were single- or double-breasted, with shawl or notched collars, and might be finished in double points at the lowered waist. For more formal occasions, a cutaway morning coat was worn with light trousers during the daytime, and a dark tail coat and trousers was worn in the evening. The shirts were made of linen or cotton with low collars, occasionally turned down, and were worn with wide cravats or neck ties. Trousers had fly fronts, and breeches were used for formal functions and when horseback riding. Men wore top hats, with wide brims in sunny weather. During the 1850s, men started wearing shirts with high upstanding or turnover collars and four-in-hand neckties tied in a bow, or tied in a knot with the pointed ends sticking out like "wings". The upper-class continued to wear top hats, and bowler hats were worn by the working class. In the 1860s, men started wearing...

Every gothic gentleman worth his salt needs a long black coat.  The trick is to find one that looks suitably gothly without being covered in buckles and spider-print material (unless that’s what you’re into).    Galler Serpentine – another excellent and long-standing aussie label – offers a range of men’s coats, including this plain black Matrix-style priest coat.

Rock Style Clothing For Men

Rock Revival clothing for men is a high quality brand that embodies the heart and soul of the immortalized rock star. To this end, Rock Revival has studied the creative genius, persona and style of some of the biggest stars in music and their passion for rock n' roll and translated that into a one of a kind Rock Revival clothing collection for men.  Regardless if you are in a band or not, the rockstar look can be pulled off if you have the right attitude. That is by far the most important fashion tip for this look, everything else is just karaoke. Beat up jeans in any cut also work well. Add the iconic black leather jacket. Look for a straight forward motorcycle jacket.  Start with the jeans. Well worn denim jeans, or industrial faded, and should fit the rockstar man to a T.  Skinny jeans are a definite rockstar look, but not for every man.  Check thrift stores and vintage clothing shops before considering a new piece. The more beat up l...

Military Style Clothing For Men

Image
Military fashion for men is something that never seems to go out of style. Sometimes pundits in the fashion industry will say that camo is out, but it never seems to go away.  Like its true purpose of disguising people, it's deceptive in that even when it seems to go away, it is still there.   The styles are inspired from many different countries and their particular battle uniforms spanning over many years.  These fashion styles can be found in camo-colored watches, functional lace-up boots and dark green jackets. They can also take on elements similar to this look, but become entirely their own fashion piece. By matching a piece of military fashion for men, the styles accentuate a variety of different outfits wonderfully.

Chinese Clothing Style For Men

Image
Chinese men have been less fashion conscious than their women throughout the history of the country. This does not mean that they did not have a particular dress sense.  The most basic Chinese clothing for men was a long robe. This long robe was a prominent part of the culture of China. This can be judged by the fact that many men sport a modernized version of the traditional Chinese long robe even today.  Such robes are reserved for special occasions like weddings or cultural celebrations. In fact Chinese clothing for men has fascinated the global community and has changed a lot over time.

80s Clothing Style For Men

Image
The 80s are considered a time when fashion became a force to reckon with.  Think back to stone washed denims, big hair, blue eye shadow, aviator sunglasses and studded jackets. Think of New edition and the swag they brought with them. All these and many more have made a comeback to the fashion scene and you will find them on shelves of every clothing store.  The clothes in the 80s portrayed people who wanted to fit in, have an identity and be known for being with it and keeping it real.

70 s Clothing Style For Men

Image
Clothing worn by men in the early 1970s was a continuation of the flower power styles that surfaced during the 1960s.  Men's clothing of the '60s and '70s left an indelible mark on fashion, and glimpses of it can be seen surfacing in clothing today. Much of the clothing styles and fashion during the 1970s was androgynous, meaning it was appropriately worn by both men and women. Platform shoes were a popular androgynous clothing trend for men during the 1970s. Platform shoes had a wide and high sole which lifted the foot anywhere from 2 to 4 inches. It was common to find platform shoes that had both the toe and the heel of the shoe elevated.  One advantage of platform shoes for men was that they made them taller. Platform shoes did not go out of style; they have just been restyled with the times.
