A mistake other than the over long sleeves and contrasting collar and cuffs with jeans you mean?

I see some missteps, but nothing I'd call disturbing. That's a bit strong, no?

The only thing disturbing is that I'm not the guy. Who cares what he's wearing look who he's with. I'm sure he's having the laugh.

 

[figliachepiange]

Has he gotten a stiff collar and left it open?

how pointless

 

[chatsworth osborne jr.]

Is that an Eric Glennie collar?

There's something odd about the collar. It looks like it takes a stud and is of the Eric Glennie school of having several inches of (not wearing a) tie space.

i think youmiss understand me i find it disturbing that it could be called fashion to wear a detachable collar undone i dont see the fashion in it

This is typical "formal" attire for most couples their age whom I see around here, except that his shirt is rather strange, his shirt-tail is tucked in, and his shoes look too good.

I guess it was the word "disturbing" that threw me. Unless it is indecent or disrespectful in some way I don't generally think of what someone is wearing as being "disturbing". Silly, funny, out of place, etc., but not disturbing.

Is calling something like this 'disturbing' considered elitist? :icon_smile_big:

The mistake i was getting at was wearing a detachable collar undone like that with no tie

 

[chatsworth osborne jr.]

Oh, so that's what was going on.

That is as silly as the people who used to walk around with undone suspenders hanging below their waists.

Please, a clash of patterns can be disturbing, and wearing clothing in a way it was never intended can disturb people. It's not like anyone said the guy was (mentally) disturbed or anything.

So, who all clicked on this thread hoping to see porn and/or gore?

 

[Jim In Sunny So Calif]

I did and I must say, I was sadly disappointed :icon_smile:

I still think it's being a little sensitive to be disturbed by something like that.

It disturbs me that you are disturbed by that. :icon_smile:

 

[Cruiser]

It disturbs me that you are disturbed by that.

Well it disturbs me that you are disturbed by him being disturbed because someone else is disturbed by a picture of a guy wearing a detachable collar without a tie. Apparently the only non-disturbed person in this whole scenario is the guy not wearing a tie. :icon_smile_big:

Seriously, I understand what he is saying. I am often amused at some of the terms used in the forum to describe someone's feelings or reaction to some perceived clothing faux paux. Guys will say that they are anything from "shocked", "stunned", or pehaps "disturbed" to fearful of the fall of Western civilization over someone wearing this tie with that shirt or not wearing a tie with a suit. Little things that 99 percent of the population wouldn't even think twice about become major causes of concern with some.

Not picking on the OP because his use of the word "disturbed" wasn't overly overdramatic but it did make at least a couple of us think about other posts that were. Just having some fun and not trying to instigate anything. :icon_smile_big:

I think he looks just fine. He's obviously dressing to go clubbing and not for a job interview, so the rules of suits and ties don't apply. I suspect quite a few SF'ers sport similar looks.

 

[Jim In Sunny So Calif]

It sounds like 'clubbing' suspends the rules of good taste. At one time people used to dress like a grown up when they went to a bar or restaurant. Now it seems like the staff dress better than the patrons.

Cheers, Jim.

Clubbing is recreation for the new generation, some people like it, some people hate it, but the old rules are irrelevant there. Wearing a tie or jacket with a jeans would look odd, and would be make someone feel pretty hot in a club on a summer night.

What's the difference between a guy in jeans and a t-shirt, and jeans and that shirt at a club? Not that much really, but at least that looks somewhat original.
