00:00 Post-1960s Menswear Introduction
The classic menswear we favor here at the Gentleman’s Gazette is inspired by fashion from the 1920s into the 1960s. Obviously, there were a lot of well-dressed gentlemen in subsequent decades, but they either fell into the classic category or intentionally dressed outside of it. Even so, we believe that post-1960s menswear did not become truly classic.
00:48 Defining the “Classic” Style
When we say classic, we don’t always mean iconic or even necessarily good-looking. We’re referring to the classic style
04:18 New Applications for Old Clothing Articles
The second half of the 20th century presents a lot of examples of menswear being revived and repurposed.
07:24 Post-1960s Menswear Innovations: Classic?
Given their interesting histories, are menswear innovations beyond the 1960s be considered classics? We would argue that they can’t.
While it’s true that these fabrics and clothes have all been worn in ways that they weren’t traditionally intended to be worn, they all existed before the 1960s and were regularly utilized. The range of those conditions has simply expanded.
08:52 What Makes a Classic?
We hope that at this point, we’ve clearly explained to you that no post-1960s menswear is part of classic style. Most classic menswear styles have their origins long before the 1960s. Even if those articles are used in new or in different ways, they still have to adhere to certain classic style rules to be considered a true classic.
The same logic also applies to broader trends like cuts, patterns, colors, and textures. Unless they can be integrated into the classic style, they are not true classics.
