Dressing well is an art form that not everyone masters, but everyone has the potential to be able to do it, and so do you. In fact, with a few rules that never go out of style, you can do it.
Nowadays there are many outdated tips, but one fashion principle that men should follow is to learn to ignore trends. That's right, there are rules that are really useful and can make you look much better.
I say that last one because fashion can certainly be a matter of taste, but there are some basic elements that can make your look look a whole lot better. And that's where I want to go deeper, right?
So I'm going to share the fashion rules for men to follow in 2025. Without further ado, let's get started.
- Learn to say NO to some trends
The first and most important recommendation is to learn to ignore trends. It is true that they help you to look more current and modern, but not all of them will be for you.
Then, you must learn to say NO to those trends that don't suit you at all.. I see people on social media and in the street who only wear what's in fashion, and with this I'm not saying that you shouldn't include them in your outfits, but you should analyse them and try them out. Because, believe me, not all of them are going to look good on you.
Be selective in adding fashions. One of the biggest mistakes I think people make is jumping on the bandwagon of every trend that comes along, and believe me, by using them all your outfits are not going to look any better. In fact, your style is not going to evolve properly.
- Pay attention to the cut of the garments.
There is one very important thing: the cut of the garments. You wonder why? Well, because each garment is designed for each body type. There will be fits and cuts that suit your body much better.
For example, the boxy fit in T-shirts is very fashionable (it's like the evolution of oversize). It suits me quite well, but there are people who, perhaps, don't, because what it does is make their legs more pronounced. So, no matter how viral or trendy that cut is, it may not be the ideal one for you.
Another trend that is emerging is trousers that are too wide. More and more clothing brands are making them wider and wider, both in the men's and women's sections. If you are a fairly short person, this type of trousers will not flatter you at all. They will only make you even shorter.
- Analyse your body
Almost all of us have a mirror at home in which we look at ourselves every day. Use it to analyse your body. Some people may feel insecure about knowing the strengths and weaknesses of their anatomy, but don't worry, you are not perfect and nobody is.
Personally, I believe that perfection lies in the imperfection that characterises us all. The fact is that it is important that you carry out an analysis, as it will give you a good idea of which garments will suit you and which will not.
Then go to those shops and try on clothes. There are probably a lot of them in your city. The best thing to do is to go to them and try on absolutely everything. There you will find out what suits you and what you like and what you don't like.
- Think about the colour scheme
When you're at the stage where it's time to identify which clothes go with your body style, you have to start digging into the colour scheme.. There are many people who wear black or dark colours every day.
Yes, maybe they want to cover up some insecurities or they just like this colour. I think it's a great colour to wear, but I don't think it's necessary to wear it every day, in fact, it's not going to contribute to a good style.
- Trainers are the most important part of an outfit.
There are many people who will tell you that no, it's the trousers, the jackets, or the accessories. You can buy a new jumper or you can buy a new pair of trousers, and yes, it can look different in the outfit, but the change is when you put on your shoes. And that's why you have to take care of them and appreciate what you have.
How those trainers look will make your outfit look. Watch out, price is not important, but it is essential to take care of them, value them and know how to use them.. The laces of this type of footwear and the fitting of these laces are also essential.
- Learn how to accessorise
Lately, I consider people are accessorising for the sake of accessorising and to add more and more. Knowing how to put them on correctly and simply is the best option. If you want to wear five rings, choose one or choose two.
Do you want to wear four chains? Choose a thinner or thicker one, I don't care, but choose one.
- Opt for the basics
And the style you have to resort to the most is the basics. Having a good wardrobe base is essential. Opting for expensive clothes is not always a good idea. You have to go for basic garments that combine with absolutely everything, and this base will give you much more versatility when it comes to creating outfits.
Really, basics are what look best and will stay with you throughout your life. I'm talking about clothing without logos. and which have an impact on the colour scheme.
Always have a pole to your wardrobe, a unicolour shirt and a few jumpers. The best thing is that in our online shop of Gerrys Tropez you can find these garments in a variety of colours and styles. What are you waiting for? Have a look.
