As a guy who takes a lot of cues from vintage menswear, the late 60s-70s always seemed like a place to avoid. That doesn’t seem to be the case for me anymore. With its sexy update to the elegant 30’s silhouette, it actually is appealing to me, giving me a new vibe to exude with my suits that isn’t too formal or even ivy. I just wrote a long 8k blog post and recorded a podcast about this whole thing! I don’t really like structured or overly slim suits, but I think that I’ve been able to approximate the look well with my existing wardrobe. It’s like a soft, slouchy take on the rock-and-roll suits of that era. And just like you’d expect, the #runawaycollar sportshirts, spearpoints, and deco stripe ties all fit the bill for the bold, sexy 70s allure despite being firmly 30s-40s.
