'Designing Men's Wardrobe'



If you think that menswear does not have broad classification, then obviously there is not much designing required; then its kind of underestimating men. In fact, it's just the opposite; if there is not much to classify for menswear then designing becomes more difficult, as in you have to create new designs with limited classes.

Let,s begin with the classification of men's fashion - Shirts (Classic, Sleeveless, Oxford buttoned-down, Dress Shirt, Hawaiian Shirt, T-Shirt and Polo Shirt), Pants (Dressy pants or Trousers, Baggy Pants, Cargo Pants and Jeans), Shorts (Bermudas or Boxers, Khaki and Safari), Suits ( Formal, Sporty Suit, Casual Suit, Two Piece Suit and Three Piece Suit) and Traditional Wear.

As you may see its not even the one-fourth of what womeswear is classified as. It becomes really hard to design for men as there is not much of styling or recreation that can be done. Also, in addition to this, there very small amount of men who really want to try out something different and which is flaunting style.

So, for me as designer, the situation is either I need to go out and convince people that trying out something different, sometimes adds to your personality; or I may explore my mind and really come out with different designs which don't change the outlook of the clothing but adds to styling; or I am left with the only option of not styling much and serving my clientele with the regular designs. Therefore, as I said above men require more design elements to show off their styling.

Men’s apparel is just as appealing!

Nowadays, the most stylish men devour page after page of fashion advice and grooming tips. So here I am to share my knowledge with our studs. The very first rule says that never wear a bad fit; for whatever you wish to wear, it won’t look good on you until ‘ n’ unless it fits your body properly. So evaluating fit is the key to stand out in a room full of masculine bodies. To do so, keep in mind the following   5 elements of evaluating fit: 1.      Grain – a garment should be cut on the right grain or on grain to achieve good fit. 2.      Set – it refers to the smooth fit, i.e., without any wrinkles. 3.      Line – for a proper fit the structural line of the garment should align with the natural lines of the body. 4.      Balance – according to this, the right and left side of the garment should appear balanced or symmetrical when viewed from front, side or back; which means that the garment s...

Men's Fashion ~ Not A Creative Field - That's History!

"Women are fashionable but men are not" is a popular; but erroneous; notion which stems from the presumption that men dress only for comfort and functionality, not for style or fashion. Unfortunately, and quite inaccurately, men who are interested in fashion are considered by many to be 'peculiar' and probably decadent. A man's profession highly influences his wardrobe and style. In the emerging world of capitalism and political democracy, menswear has been greatly influenced by the corporate culture of multinational companies which greatly emphasize on the look and image of their work force.

For instance, junior men's fashion is highly attitude-driven and is influenced by sports, music channels and fashion icons. Color is a prime attribute of men's fashion. The most commonly worn c...
