My favourite era is now, it's the age of the individual. Subcultures don't exist anymore (atleast they are on a much much smaller scale) so you can dress how you want. Internet exists, I can look up everything I want, get inspo from everywhere, I can order every brand I want, I can order made in Italy sweaters for a couple hundred euros and I've never even been to Italy, you couldn't do that in the past.
Style is (well looking at the general public that isn't really tue, but that was never ever the case really) much more induvidual now, or atleast it can be if you want to.

Early-mid 1960s. i fucking love the browline glasses style. plus its before the degeneracy of the late 1960s with the anti-vietnam protests. despite agreeing with them the colorful hippie shit disgusts me.


early-mid 1960s was the last years of 1950s fashion. and for me it will always be the most aesthetic time period.

True, but they were made as underwear. No finished seams. Wearing underwear on the outside was slightly risque, hence "cool".

I prefer early-mid 60s. It's that sweet spot between the 50's and the 70s when things got a little weird in my opinion. 60s is when men dressed best in my opinion.

I would say early to mid 60s. This was right when the West was at its apex of modernity. After that it became a caricature of itself.

That kind of early Brooklyn hipster stuff is nice (when its not overdone) and vastly better than the early 00s but that period also brought us the LMFAO swag cancer shit and at least in the UK the topman core basic bitch chino wanker.
