Do you think it is sexy if a man dresses in Vintage clothes?

[ThePowderKeg]

I agree with the others who have said that clothes must fit properly to be flattering--vintage or not. I also think a man has to be comfortable and confident in what he's wearing in order to come across as sexy. There's nothing like fidgeting with your outfit to ruin the look. While my husband wears jeans and a t-shirt with a button-down almost every day, he's comfortable in a suit. When we go to formal events and I see other guys squirming because they don't feel right dressed up, it makes me appreciate that I have a man who can carry himself well no matter what he's wearing.

But if he's comfortable and confident in vintage, that's a bonus.

Hiya,

I love the mens sections in my favourite Vintage Shops. I want a man who will be my Manequin to dress up! My boyfriend flat our refuses. But I think Vintage Clothes on men are sexy. What do you think?

I love men in vintage anything, whether it's a suit or the more casual rockabilly style.

Here's an example of a look I would find "sexy":

Me too!

I definitely agree there. Marlon Brando is divine! Just like women it's not plausible to be dressed up all the time. I know that back then it was different as standards of dress for females were so high! But nowadays Its easy to feel overdressed in vintage when your friends are wearing jeans and Tshirt. I know there is nothing wrong with looking smart but I am definitely going to work on some looks that are casual yet still maintain that vintage glamour. Sorry to distract of original post idea bit your comment has made me curious. Does anyone else feel like this when amongst non vintage people? What do you do ?

I dress vintage everyday, so my friends are used to it. In fact, I've only worn modern clothing once around them (after going hiking) and they kind of freaked out when they saw me

My husband always wears a fedora hat ...not those trendy short brimmed fedora hats that guys seem to wear these days...but nice vintage, felt ones.

I have always admired Ricky Ricardo and Lounge member Yeps' style. Here are some of my favorite Desi Arnaz/Ricky Ricardo clothing. http://www.google.com/m/search?tbm=i...arnaz&sa=N#i=0

http://www.google.com/m/search?tbm=i...rnaz&sa=N#i=46 I like the way he is wearing his hat in this one . With the pinch in it.

http://www.google.com/m/search?tbm=i...naz&sa=N#i=105 I like the hairstyle and plaid shirt in this one.
I could go on and on. Absolutely check out I Love Lucy episodes. He also wore jeans and tennis shoes a few times on the show also. My favorite one is were Fred and Ricky were wearing their favorite clothing and the wives did not like the guys looking so sloppy.

Om my babyjo.com they have this motorcycle cap http://mybabyjo.com/Hats_c16.htm that I just adore on a man in. Polo or button down shirt with tee shirt peeking over the top.

Wonderful! I can't stand the short brimmed fedora. I do adore Ed Norton's hat (Honeymooners TV show).

Those now ubiquitous, short-brimmed fedoras worn by so many average Joes these days annoy the heck out of me on the grounds that, from the corner of my eye, for a moment I think I am seeing a dapper gentleman and it turns out it's some dude in surf jams and a t-shirt.

Gotta love Desi and his baggies! He was so cool.

Agreed. I often mutter and feel let down afterward.

I do! I love a man who is nicely dressed and well-groomed, and those things were definitely more "the norm" with vintage styles than in today's world. I do love a guy in a vintage suit, but I also think a guy can look great in a t-shirt & jeans so long as everything fits well and he's groomed.

I know everyone will think I'm lying, but my husband dresses up/nicely 100% of the time. He seriously even wears starched & pressed pajamas to bed. I'm not joking. He dresses very classic - typically suits, dress pants with nice shirts, wingtip shoes - and does wear some vintage or vintage-styled items.

Quite honestly, although he *always* looks put-together, I do sometimes envy those ladies whose men dress down in t-shirts & shorts. My husband would never be caught dead in a t-shirt outside the house. Heck, he won't even wear a shirt untucked, or pants without a belt! When my dad came to visit last summer he asked me why my husband was grilling hamburgers in a shirt & tie.

OT: That is so funny, I would come to your barbeques just for that
