Why does this look so good when you're walking around in Europe yet so pretencious and gay in America?

You'd look like a tryhard faggot regardless. Just the idea that a man would labor over their appearance to this extent is revolting

The fit is good, for me it's the manicured facial hair, hairstyle and makeup that ruin it

because in europe you have socialism that allows you a comfy lifestyle with clothes that are well taken care of and fit.
in us you have to constantly be on the grind with clothes that allow you to get work done or climbs the social ladder.
when you transplant one to the other, you look like a social retard.

This.
However we don't know the date or the location of this model's photo shoot, which influence fashion. Very curated look of Italian men's chic.

American ideas of men's clothing style are always tending to utilitarian and purpose / activity focused European ideas of men's fashion for pure" frivolous glamor" or indulgence are viewed very negatively. It's subconsciously seen as effeminate and contrary to puritan ideals.

I have to agree with this.
Though I'm still not 100% sold on exposed male ankles like that, its probably just me but it feels sort of feminine.

That guy could walk down the street in a bathrobe and bunny slippers and not get shit for it.

The look looks hella fucking gay, but if you're actually masculine nobody is going to open their mouth

>>15844831
it is effeminate but if the guy wearing it is masculine that doesn't matter. Same thing goes for women, a woman in a business suit is still feminine even though she's literally crossdressing.

>> No.15846712

is he wearing leather shoes without socks? Shoes don't look good with skin showing, only sneakers/trainers.

If you don't wear socks I'm going to assume you're a prissy bitch

That doesn't look good, at least in my opinion. It looks "good" because it's a staged photo where you're led to believe, at least via context, that it is attractive. In any other context, that hair + beard + glasses combo would represent "dude that will sell you prepaid cell phone minutes in a mall kiosk."

We have the same thing in America for sure. I know guys like this, they look absolutely idiotic in person, and yet have the good grace to make sure their photos look at least okay. In reality, they put people off because they try too hard and look a little bit too strange.

That said, you could make that fit way better by just making it more realistic. Slightly longer trousers, add some no-show socks or just socks, unbutton a button or two, calm down with the hair, and you've got a dude that looks sophisticated but relaxed.

It does look gay and pretentious in France at least, don't know about Europe cause theres not really a cultural consensus on these things across Europe, nobody calls himself an European, this isn't America

I'm not sure he's wearing makeup and the facial hair is fine but the hair man, it's too goddamn much
Thankfully, I look good in messy, just out of the bed hair so I never have to overdo it like OP pic does. Not that I would put Jew gunk in my hair anyway
