Different means unlikely, contrasting, various and diverse are synonyms that define what being different means. In regards to menswear, there are different styles men can rock that fit their body built and ensure they always dress the part in a sea of fashion trends that fade away year after year. This blog post will grant examples of styles men can wear and how these styles enables a man to be different in anything that he does.
1. Give all the styles a try and select ones that look nice on you
There is a saying that says “YOU WILL NEVER KNOW UNTIL YOU TRY” and indeed that statement is very true because in life , there comes a time where one must implement an activity firsthand be it starting a new business, a family, new skill or a hobby and learning how to drive a car for instance. In terms of style, there are many styles or fashion trends men can select with the common ones being street style, casual style, smart casual and formal style. I urge men to practice dressing well by trying all the styles until you find one that looks good on you. David Beckham the former Madrid football player once said “I like nice clothes whether they are dodgy or not”, this quote alone is one way to stand out and that is wear nice clothes. To be different means you are open minded to nice styles whether they are dodgy or not.
2. Dress sharp without drawing too much attention to yourself
William Maugham once said “THE WELL DRESSED MAN IS ONE WHOSE CLOTHES YOU WILL NEVER NOTICE” and as a Style lover, I completely agree with the quote because sometimes your style doesn’t need too much attention hence going for simple, minimalistic and monochromatic styles is always the best way to go. A navy blue, black, white and grey item whether it is formal such as a dress shirt or casual such as a T-shirt is the right item that helps a man dress better without drawing attention. Fashion is all about current trends and it draws too much attention to you. Thus, simplicity is one way to be different with your style as a man in a sea of fashion trends.
3. Dress in a way that affects the way people think, feel, act and react towards you
Julie Rasband’s quote titled “THE WAY WE DRESS AFFECTS THE WAY WE THINK, THE WAY WE FEEL, ACT AND THE WAY OTHERS REACT TO OTHERS”. This quote is one of the quotes I extracted from the Fashion Beans website – https://www.fashionbeans.com/article/best/quotes-mens-fashion-style/ and it is very detailed and profound in shaping men’s mindsets to take their style seriously. Thus, a man can dress in a suit for example to first convey a message that the man is serious about life and seeing a man in a suit affects people’s minds in a good way because they assume the man is rich, smart and confident, others feel happy with the style of the man and others may action by complimenting or taking pictures with the man in a suit. Hence, there is power in what we wear gentlemen, don’t take it for granted and that means you are different.
