What are your thoughts on dressing masculine?

The only way to dress masculine is to be in shape, preferably with a v-taper

Nothing insecure about dressing to your body type. People who are in shape can't dress the same as skinny alternative people, it just doesn't look good on them.

[Anonymous No.12699555]

Brands don't matter.

>>12699539
this.

you know how women will dress to accentuate their "femininity"? (curves, red lips, full long hair, high heels) etc. to dress masculine is to do the same thing. accentuate the qualities you have (physical qualities) that are male.

keep it simple and keep the fit right. show off what works for you. denim, preferably fresh and stiff looking, A-frame style shirts, some stubble, boots, make sure you can see the veins in your forearms. no pastels either.

if you got thick hair then it's an asset. keep your face clean. no dad or grandpa-tier pants. I like thin t shirts to lay on my body better.

dressing manly doesnt have to mean dressing upper class. an auto mechanic in baggy overalls and a greasy tshirt looks way more manly than a salad eating expresso sipping doctor in skinny kakhis and a v neck sweater.

As per your rules, I almost fully agree. Sneakers are still acceptable for very casual look though.

As per the brands, I tend to disagree. Those brands are all about the logo (expect if you take Purple Label from RL) and I do not find oversized or extra visible logos very masculine.

Overall, I would say that appropriate clothes won't necessary imply masculinity but in other hand inappropriate clothes will for sure impact masculinity reflection. Unless you are a trendy hyped celebrity, then people will blindly forgive this new as new fashion statement.

>when you are so masculine you can't dare to wear different brands
Being a man of your own is more masculine than any Lacoste shirt will ever be.

[Anonymous No.12700458]

>dress masculine
I'd think the most /effay/ way of being masculine is having very masculine features to begin with then dress to rather feminine tastes; the juxtaposition highlights said features

First things first - get a masculine body shape, preferable ascended ottermode.

Once that out of the way, the way to dress masculine is to dress like an adult, a.k.a trousers/shirt/blazer.
Basically what you want to wear is bizcaz/prep(do not refer to /fa/ prep threads as they are shit):

>dress shirt (no pockets)
>dress pants
>dress shoes (dont go cheap)+matching belt
>blazer/sports jacket
>accessories (pocket square/watch/ring)

Go for different shades of blue/grey/brown (a pair of light/dark blue/grey/brown trousers and blazers), for shirts you want different shades of blue and light pink/green/purple.

Like it or not, this is the way to dress. Even if you are not that /fit/ you will look loads better next to the trash streetwear teens that make up 90% of /fa/.

This must be a joke.

Lacoste used to be good, but is complete shit quality now.

Tommy Hilgifer is 90's negro tier.

RLP is the only thing okayish on that list.

Calvin Klein? Maybe if you are a lesbian.

Calvin Klein is pretty shitty, Ralph Lauren is the only brand from the list I really like but it's a little too expensive for me. The only thing I've considered buying from Tommy is a black polo only because it's a lot cheaper than Ralph Lauren.

>ralph lauren the only brand i like

literally the brand of lower middle class wannabes to lower class ghetto trying to appear elevated.

The quality of Ralph Lauren is Iffy at best, Lacoste is leagues better than it.

>"brand I like"
You mean the regurgitated opinion you're spouting because you heard other people say 'wow man you have some ralphies?'

Ralph Lauren isnt BAD. Its just not great, or even 'good'. Simply okay. Its most definitely not worth the price. Arguably, if you arent going Purple Label, I wouldnt wear it outside of one or two polos AT MOST.

If you want better quality polos for a much cheaper (rest of their shit is expensive) just go to J Crew. You dont have to deal with that annoying logo either

[Anonymous No.12703209]

>>12703200

Black label is decent and Purple label offers very good to outstanding quality. PL is overpriced yes but you can find some bargains online.

[Anonymous No.12703222]

Masculine guys never really care about brands or any of the gay shit in this thread, just work out and wear nice fitted solid colored t shirts and decent jeans/shorts and you're good.

[Anonymous No.12703995]

>>12701893
Maybe 10+ years ago. Or if you are talking about the small made in France line (which is almost entirely ugly). But if we are talking about the made in France line, then we should also be talking about the purple label.

Either way.

Lacoste is lower quality and higher priced currently. It used to be nicer. I recently tried to buy some new Lacoste polos and I was embarrassed. The material was ridiculously thin and uncomfortable to the touch. The standard RLP polos are both thicker and have a better texture. I wouldn't buy them though.

>earth-tones, they keep things quiet and they stay looking clean.
>shoes that will protect your feet while looking great
You gotta look masculine too, not just dress it. Gotta look put-together, in control of your life, attention to details not overlooked, in shape, and nothing that cries out for attention like a woman. Your posture alone can make you look more beta than your whole outfit put together. The way you walk can convey just as much. Idk that this question can truly be answered on this board, desu.

How many of you incels never had fathers?

>comb your greasy hair and get a fucking haircut even if you keep it long don't get anything trendy just regular
>shave unless you can grow a real moustache or beard
>layer your clothing. T shirt, shirt, jacket, coat. Each one should look good if you take the top layer off.
>tuck your shirt in
>leather belt and leather shoes/boots
>blue jeans for everyday, black/gray slacks for office work/events. All other pants colors are out. Never wear patterned pants or shorts.
>never wear jewelry even a wedding band
>clothes should be cotton, wool, leather, linen, or silk. Plastic coats are acceptable
>clothes should be good quality, clean, free of tears/logos/designs/factory distressing, and fit properly

Even in poor countries like Mexico or the Philippines the men look better than 99% of the men in the states simply because they tuck their fucking shirts in. I don't know if it's the over consumption of garbage media or a weird phobia of looking decent but "men" in the states dress like complete shit.
