The modern man knows no fear when it comes to shopping. Gone are the days spent skulking around the electronics section of the department store he had been dragged to by his long despairing partner. With the arrival of the internet along with a resurgence in elegant men's fashion, many men are embracing their sartorial heritage and the many forms of fashion that entails. Spurred on by fashion icons from a number of arenas – sport most especially – many chaps are now keen to emulate the high sartorial elegance that was the hallmark of the gentleman of yesteryear. Not that modern fashion is in any way staid or drab.
Om the contrary, modern designs have been inspired by past styles and untied them with a contemporary aesthetic that has refreshed and reinvigorated some of the traditional tailoring and fashion of yesteryear.
Along with the new-found popularity of skinny ties, waistcoats, pocket squares and tie clips, we have witnessed the popularity of knitwear from the likes of Hugo Boss and John Smedley knitwear. Moreover, the popularity of TV series such as Med Men has seen the resurgence of occasion dressing –with many men confident enough to mix styles, design and colours in unorthodox ways to achieve a look that's all of their own. Textures, layering and colours are a great way to achieve this and the essence of looking good is to ensure that your ensemble works well as an organic whole. Contrasting colours are one thing, but be careful when matching patterns and textures as you can easily achieve the unintended outcome of closely resembling an optional illusion if you put too little though into pairing two different versions of parallel strips or checks.
Popular brands like John Smedley knitwear and Hugo Boss give men the freedom to combine pieces, by offering popular styles that conform to a similar design aesthetic and many seasonal collections these days will often work well together. Gone are the days of outrageous contrasts and attention pieces (for the time being at least), instead replaced by complementary items of traditionally inspired sartorial elegance. Of course, the cost of keeping up to date with the latest fashions can be prohibitive, but many items are not as expensive as you might think. A beautiful John Smedley knitwear jumper, for example, can start from as little as £99 and further discounts might be available at the end of the season. Equally, you can pick up some great discounts on brands as coveted as Ralph Lauren and Lyle & Scott.
