Congrats, you have now entered men's fashion hell. You are now in the first circle of this hell, enjoy your trip downwards  ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/Jzjo5CM.jpg) | ||

So I have no idea where I fit in hell. i try to diversify because i want first hand experience of various brands before i decide to cut down. eventually i'm sure i'm going to narrow it down to our legacy and maybe 5 more. | ||

This made me kind of wonder how regulars here envision their fashion 10-20ish years from now. Not as much which designers or whatever, but how their style will evolve with age. Basically do you guys think you should/would 'dress your age' and what that means at 30, 40, 50 years old? If someone wanted to drop some images of what they think is appropriate and something they would wear if they were 45 today and think it might still fit in at a place like this (a group of fashionable fellas  )?Basically can I see some examples of how you guys would dress if you were in your 40's-50's instead of your actual age. Or do people just generally think the stuff here would make sense for a 50 y.o. to wear also? Because right now I have an image of you guys showing up to a E-Sports event at 50+ looking basically like this... + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/sASBHFK.jpg) This stuff confuses me on so many levels, just when I think this fashion stuff is starting make sense I get confused all over again. | ||

So I have no idea where I fit in hell. you have to try different stuff to find what you like, and what you like will change over time. Not as much about brands as "aesthetic/style" since lots of brands go together. | ||

in 10+ years i can keep wearing sweats 20+ i can wear OCBDs and real trousers, which is what I wanted to do like 2 years ago so it all works out. to be fair, we have a mix of people not that into fashion, and people very into the internet subculture of fashion on here. which makes sense, as it's a starcraft forum. what part about that picture confuses you? | ||

There were some little tweaks (the highwater roll up look/color) and some outfits (like the fisherman looking one) that are pretty far off my range but some of that stuff looked pretty sharp in my opinion. particularly the first look. I feel like both the Rick Owens pic and this one, If I dressed like that (without the jacket or rolling up) people would say I was dressed like a thug/gangster though. I feel like the last thing most people would think is 'fashionable'. But maybe that's just me being self conscious. Forgive me if I'm using fogy jargon too. what part about that picture confuses you? That's basically it, plus I feel like wearing the same outfit as teenagers at 50 is a little weird. But I don't really think that's a big deal and imagine that's a reasonably popular opinion here (not in most places I know of though) Another part that get's me is I can't help but think of the sagging pants body skeleton meme, and presume people would think the same if I wore it. | ||

I'm not that tough on guys either really personally, just I know the people I run into day to day would be thinking/saying stuff like "dress your age". I went to Hawaii a while back and it was an eye opening experience in a lot of ways. Relevant here was how a lot of Japanese women dressed like 18-23 y.o. even though they were probably 40-50 possibly older. Other than almost accidentally hitting on some grandmas, I didn't see anything wrong with it either. I'm not that fogyish, I'd be more than happy to take my future wife out wearing something like this if she could pull it off nearly as well at any age  Oh and interesting piece I haven't gotten through all of it but it touches on a lot of things I'm familiar with. | ||

Am I alone in this thread in my hate? I think ~95% of responders in the recent MFA census said they liked it but I just can not understand the appeal. | ||
