True Style - The History and Principles of Classic Menswear

About the productJapanese

Choosing the right glasses, properly coordinating your shirt, tie and pocket square, but how many of us just throw them on every morning without thinking about it, how many of us understand the subtle differences in how to choose the right socks, or which patterns work best with different clothes?

Here, renowned fashion expert G. Bruce Boyer provides an essential primer on this daily ritual. In witty, stylish prose, Boyer briskly navigates through menswear staples and traditions, detailing the evolution and best uses of fabrics like denim and linen, accessories like ties and glasses, and the principles of combining patterns, colors, and textures. He also advises the dos and don'ts of wearing a turtleneck, warns the evils of wearing dress shoes without socks, and touts the virtues of sprezzatura.
