Clothing Etiquette

The style of a man’s clothes grows out of the style of the man himself, as an individual, rather than the other way around. A man has to understand himself before he can understand his style.

People’s lives having changed, and there being less rigor in dress, people feel more free not to follow the customs that existed once upon a time. Everything is – don’t misunderstand me, but – a little more vulgar. Because unfortunately, often when one goes beyond some form of rigor, one ends up in the ridiculous, the obvious, and the banal.

For a woman, one day she wears something, the next day she throws it out. For men instead, some things remain. Things that are chosen with care.

There are many different ways to categorise casual wear. The first is Casual outfits and for men this would mean some type of sports clothing or jean on jean that would fit in well with a braai or any chilled day out. Dressy casual means that the men will have on, trousers either long or short as well as a collared shirt and your choice of tie or without tie.





Men have separate rules for clothing then women do, there really is a such thing as Clothing Etiquette For Men. When men have an appropriate wardrobe they will feel more powerful and they sense of self-development and self worth will progress. Men appreciate their public image and by dressing the part, it can really make or break a business deal or even a dinner date.

My favourite shoes. If you from Kasi you have to own a pair of chuck Taylors and best kill it with you outfit.  

Formal wear is mainly suggested for sophisticated events even on normal random days its accpeted, but preferable for social events, meetings, work depending on which career, weddings, dinner, dance etc. The dress code is mainly a suit - trousers, shirt, tie, blazer and genuine shoes, obviously with a combination of whatever colours you prefer and tailored cuts.


When I'm done with my degree this is what I'll be wearing often. Lol, I dont mind though.

My type of clothing. Just a slight preview on my type clothing that I would wear any day. I just have a thing for these type of designs and style I definitely I adore it.
