AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around the perplexity and humor surrounding certain male fashion choices, particularly a specific shirt featured in an image. Participants question the practicality and appeal of such outfits, suggesting they are more suited for fashion runways than everyday life. There's a consensus that many men would not want to wear these styles, with comments highlighting the absurdity of the designs and the idea that they would provoke laughter rather than admiration in social settings. The conversation touches on the disconnect between high fashion and what is considered wearable, with some expressing disbelief at the fashion industry's direction and the types of clothing showcased. Overall, the sentiment leans towards a critique of current male fashion trends, emphasizing a preference for practicality over flamboyance.

Male Fall Fashion...really?

Ok, I want to know how many men want to wear this shirt. Do these guys look mad because they're wearing the same outfit, or because they had to wear the shirt. Are those wild animals?

Strangely, I could probably wear this without anyone at work raising an eyebrow.

It's going to take me three years to get my hair in fashion for this year.

Uh, yeah. And that's right, they would! Ah, silly men! I know exactly what you mean. No self-respecting man would ever think about buying that or anything by John Galliano. I would never, ever do that. Ever.

So.

I got to go and will check back with you all later. Okay? Cool.Silly men...

Wait. What year was this. From the looks of the hair, it must have been in the '60s.

If not, maybe I should start growing my hair again to be in style. :devil:

On the catwalk, the only place any of the clothes from Planet Designer are worn.

I'm fully cognizant of places here in Oslo where he would make a success wearing that outfit.

Not as much success as he would get WITHOUT that particular outfit or anything else, but that's totally beside your question, anyways..

If it were longer, they might wear it on a wrestling mat or in an olympic swimming pool, but that's about it.

I don't think that's to impress women. :smile:

Every once in a while, I'll click on a fashion-show link, to be amazed by the crap that designers would wrap anorexic waifs in. Most of their "designs" will never be seen off the runway. I guess if you are a male model, you just have to swallow your pride, and perhaps pretend to be tough to salvage your self-respect.

I don't get it. It looks like an ordinary baseball cap to me.

Yup and the first male model I ever saw that didn't has a big head...

What's really sad is they get paid to look like that and have their picture taken.

Oh, thanks lisab. Now he's going to kill me. And then put that thing on my lifeless body.

He should've worn the shirt in Evo's pic.

I'd post a link, but the rest of that site looked way too inappropriate for PF.

And the women would die if they saw some of the other guys.

Wow! Both are ugly outfits!

Male fashion is an oxymoron. Most guys that I know couldn't care less What they are wearing, as long as it is cheap and functional. If you ever see me wearing anything other than T-shirts and jeans (with perhaps a sweatshirt or fleece in cold weather), you'll be at my funeral, and I won't care.

I honestly don't understand "fashion" shows. They certainly do not show anything that anyone would actually wear. As someone who produced real product at work...I don't understand why fashion designers get paid to do stuff like this. Why don't they get a real job?

I know I'm probably wrong on some level, but I still don't get it.

i think it's just that ridiculously-wealthy cougars like to have fun dressing their pool boys in equally-ridiculous outfits.

Someone posted this on another site. I am not sure just how serious the article is. The last picture in the series is much like the bathing suit one already posted... but worse.
