Men Style Guide:Cool, Modern and Elegant
The custom (or would be a trend) of wearing tailoring pants in extremely casual looks can be considered a watershed in this second decade of the 21st century and promises to move on to the next.
The piece brought an elegance difficult to achieve only with the traditional casual clothes, and the leaner silhouettes of today only made it more cool.
Why does it work?
A diverse and eclectic, but accurate choice of items and a sober color palette created a unique balance in this look.
The lead gray pants with the blend fabric that lends a special texture only comes to enhance the combo. The knit cardigan gives a comfortable and relaxed air, especially when you leave some buttons open on purpose, and see how it highlights the face helped by the T-shirt that also brings a mix , but its light tone avoids confusion with the pants. The sneakers bring even more fun to the look, but without destroying the elegance and sophistication that the set brings. Swap this Converse Jack Purcell for a pair of sneakers and watch the disaster happen.
Note that the pants are fitted, but very comfortable, the same is true with the cardigan, which shows that it is possible to have a good fit without tightening and we can also relax without wearing a pair of larger pants.
Another point in favor of the look is that it stretches the silhouette without using monochromatic, just tone on tone.
Try it…
wearing a light scarf on a slightly colder day, the accessory will make the outfit even more stylish, in fact it can be a way to add a little color to the look. I would choose a caramel or mustard accessory to bring vibrancy.
It wouldn’t be the same if…
the pants were jeans , because we would have a completely casual and much more conventional look, although I love the jeans, it is always good to give new looks to everyday looks.
Summing up:
- Tailoring pants have reached the casual look to increase the elegance of the modern man;
- Eclectic choice of pieces can work as long as you care about their style and fit;
- The neutral palette with tone on tone lengthens the silhouette without appealing to the monochrome;
- The cardigan and t-shirt bring relaxation and comfort, while the pants invest in sophistication;
- If you don’t want to wear shoes, opt for classic casual sneakers, they give you a cool air and leave your shoes eating dust;
- If it gets cold, add a light scarf, maybe even something with a stronger color to give it more personality;
- Dark jeans are amazing, but here they wouldn’t have the same effect.
