True Style – The History and Principles of Classic Menswear by G. Bruce Boyer
In today’s Men’s Style podcast by The VOU, we discuss “True Style – The History and Principles of Classic Menswear” by G. Bruce Boyer. We’ll explore the evolution of men’s clothing, the subtle styling rules, specific clothing and the trends that have shaped men’s styles over time, such as boots, bow ties, ascots, denim, and the tuxedo. Dressing well is not about following fleeting fashion trends but understanding the ‘grammar of clothing’ as a form of communication and using it to project a personal sense of style. We emphasize the importance of quality craftsmanship, the subtle art of mixing patterns, the timeless elegance of classic menswear, and the importance of sprezzatura – the art of cultivated nonchalance and key to true old-money style.
