To start with, men really do need more style. The entirety of a man’s wardrobe can be listed by anyone at any time. It is true that less is more, a lot of men know how to use this numerable staples and turn them into incalculable dapperness. Basically, dressing up is easy, c’mon who doesn’t know how to jump into clean pants, shirts and shoes; the challenge here is, everybody can dress up, but not everyone can dress up and look Dapper Dan. Elegance is the word. Once there is the sheer urgency to dress up and at the same thing not look tacky, the resultant effect is style.
One of the beauties of fashion are prints; irregular and sometimes regular representation of motifs on fabrics which are further used in the production of fashion pieces: shirts, trousers, socks and in varying pallets. It is on this basis that the African fabrics are grounded. A typical African fabric have been tye(d) and dye(d), weaved, knitted etc… to form beautiful artifacts that represents the African societal culture.
As reported in my previous post (https://cameramagik.blogspot.com.ng/2016/07/what-shoe-to-wear-with-any-african.html); asides the Kaftan and Agbada, regular day-to-day button down shirts, trousers, hats, shoes, bags etc… can be made with African fabrics, with the rise of sartorial expertise, there’s been a lot of innovations in the production of men’s wear.
WEARING TROUSERS MADE OF AFRICAN FABRIC
As a means to enhance men’s style and fashion, the use of trousers made of well-tailored African fabric was born. A simple sophisticated and novel way to show up casually and timelessly elegant. On account of the fact that they are patterned, it makes wearing them pretty easy. All that is required is to find a suitable fabric tailored to fit, of course fitting is everything and it plays a huge role here, simply because if the trouser is not sizable enough it stands a chance to ruin the entire appearance, and a solid colored shirt. the reason why there is no need to over indulge in matching the African fabric with a contrasting shirt bothers on the fact that the pattern trousers or shirt or whatever piece you choose to style with, holds in itself, the capacity to light up every ensemble.
SUMMARILY,
Dressing with African fabrics explores new grounds, use up redundant piece of clothing that are designated for certain days and also provides for more sartorial options. If you feel confident enough to layer any African fabric with contrasting shirts, please! Be my guest but you must understand what ‘less is more’ really means.
Also, for shoe game, loafers are totally perfect, yet double monks, boat shoes, derbies, oxford and even sandals can offer awesome rendering.
