I need new clothes but every time I go out 95% of what I see on offer is so bog-standard male. Solid earth tones, baggy one-size-fits-all, muted colors, work-wear adjacent, etc.
It’s so hard to find stuff that’s more, I dunno, “playful?” I’d like to have some clothes are that more of an expression of my personality but almost never do I see more unusual, expressive, colorful stuff in the brick-and-mortar stores.
To compound this, I’d also like it to:
- not cost me an arm and a leg
- be interesting but not clownish/overly ironic/jokey
This has mostly led me to buying floral shirts but a man cannot live on floral shirts alone! Does anyone know of retailers that might fit the bill?
There’s stuff out there, but it is harder to find. It’s going to be especially hard to find right now. If you want more colorful clothes look again when the Spring and Summer looks come out. The Winter styles are going to be more muted and less colorful.
I like Bonobos and Todd Snyder for when I want something more interesting. Although Todd Snyder is definitely caught in the muted colors for winter thing.
