Pasted from

70's stylelumberjack reincarnated in the bohemian intellectual look.

A 1960 inventory of the Duke of Windsors wardrobe listed 15 evening suits, 55 lounge suits and three

formal suits (all with two pairs of trousers).

By 1849 Brooks Brothers had 1,500 people making its clothes, and could put a claim to being the first

company to offer ready-made clothing.

After the Second World War there were approximately 100,000 tailors working in Italy, dressing

around 85% of the adult population. And yet it was the Italians that became the leading manufacturers

of ready-made suits in the modern era.

Hickey Freemans greatest innovation was to bring the various parts of suit production into a single

factory. Up until then different tailors worked on different parts of a suit in different locations, often athome.

The innovation of Hart Schaffner & Marx (which bought Hickey) was to offer proportioned suits with

basic body types tall, short, stout and thin.

Pierre Cardin was arguably the most influential menswear designer of the twentieth centuryhe

changed attitudes to dress in men who had relatively little interest in their appearance Colin McDowell.

Cardin ruined this reputation with astonishingly promiscuous licensing.

The hottest trend of 1962 was the suit silhouette worn by a group of public school boys that gathered

around Le Drugstoe, a caf on the Champs Elyses in Paris. They went to Marina, an old tailor on Rue

Vernier in the seventeenth arondissement, who was the first to cut flat-fronted, wide-bottomed

trousers with small cuffs known as marinettes.

An anatomical expression of communication. Body Language. Steel blue and light icy green hues of

unambiguous expression and explicit gesture passionately resonate on quintessential batik fabric.

Bluish-pink and tan shades of visual statement and body movement intermingle with botany wool and

cotton jersey to create an atmosphere of apparent duality. Subtle, unspoken words.

Tailor Made

Custom designed for the fashion forward cavalier. Tailor Made. Deep chocolate and silvery brown

shades of costumier and articulate configuration exude stylistic accents on a backdrop of herringbone

and glen-checked wool. Olive green and khaki hues of perfectly fitted and made to order add fluidity to

fine mohair. Ostentatious accessories add a modish flair to the mix. Custom built for the modern man.

Work Daze

A laborious endeavor 7 day a week. Work Daze. Grey and deep indigo shades of daily grind and

afternoon exertion highlight subtle style lines and draw attention to gold metal trim. Brown and dark

green tones of nine to five and over achiever add genius to twill suiting and sturdy leather. Crimson red

tints of craftsman give herringbone and Petersham wool supplementary recognition. An obligatorycalling.

Alter Ego

A perfect substitute of the second self. Alter Ego. Red orange and khaki tones of inseparable friend and

constant companion draw attention to royal excellence on a milieu of lambs wool and soft mohair. Dark

forest green and violet hues of dual personality and second self insinuate velvet images of crowned

royalty. A swanky counterpart with a fashionable flamboyance.

Urban MixSynthesized forms of metropolitan grooves. Urban Mix. Slate grey and vibrant yellow tones of conjoined

cosmopolitan and fused configuration exude fluid and definitive movement on flannelette cotton. Light

brown and silver shades of blended element and civil medleys oscillate rhythmically between botany

wool and tie-dye edging. A metropolis of stylish contradictions.

lasting impression and captivating appeal elucidate uncertainty on contrasting plaid and paisley

patterns. Royal blue and sea green tones of amusing attraction and diversified poise give heather-mixed

resurgence of the Windsor knot for men's ties. The larger, wider knot was last in style during the 1970sbut has been spotted frequently among celebrities and leading businessmen. Named after the Duke of

Windsor in the 1930s, the knot is a triple-loop and more difficult to tie than the traditional knot

Edition, March 10. P1-P3. Academic Search Premier, EBSCOhost (accessed April 18, 2010).

The Mod looks favored by British rockers had begun to move into the mainstream by 1966. The so-called

Peacock Revolution of this period meant a move away from formality and drabness. Males of all ages

wanted casual comfort. White-collar workers were suddenly willing to adopt non-white dress shirts and

try the wider neckwear championed by a young designer and former sales representative named Ralph

Lauren, who started his own firm in 1967. A touch of the British invasion was realized in the growth of

the long Edwardian silhouette in suits and jackets. With men of all ages opening up to fashion, many of

the designers whose influence was first felt in women's wear began to make their play for the liberated

U.S. male.
