I guess, lol

seriously though, the way that norm (and a couple of the other characters on cheers, particularly sam and early-seasons frasier) dress feels noticeably fresh even today, whereas the fashion of other shows from the 80s looks really dated. I think this is partly because, to fit the themes of the show itself, the characters' aesthetics are a clash between working-class casual sportswear and a more traditional new england/ivy style. this is shown differently in each character's look, to reflect their own personality -- for instance, sam malone's perennial Red Sox training jacket/crisp white dress shirt combo conveys his character's whole history, but is a strong outfit in its own right.

I find norm's outfits the most appealing, though, especially as i get older -- they look like someone raided a Boston Brahmin's closet, but put everything together randomly, which gives it a sense of rumpled sprezzatura without being too precious. a lot of his fits wouldn't be out of place in an ametora lookbook
