Just like the most recent saying in the industry; new is old just as old is new. This is so true as most of the clothing that are been manufactured now are only a makeover of the ones that has been in existence. Take for example, double breast jackets, they have been in existence for as long as Ben Frank has been on the 100 dollar bill, but because of the recent furnishings and aesthetic added it appears to be as old as man.
At any time in the industry, the fashion industry, a particular style of clothing will have center stage, and after a while it will go temporarily extinct, temporarily because it has been found to resurface after a brief period of time. Some years, others decade, but mark my words they always do resurface. Well, the men’s fashion industry have been known for its recycling process, whirling and spitting out old cloths fresh, clean and different. Each time this is done, every facet of that cloth is reproduced; from the fabric, button, to the design to the… name it.
The suit, I think, may never go under water, not for anything, enough reason why style after style keeps springing up from as close as 1960. Well, I have no problem with that, in fact, I find it rather impressive. The one thing that catches my attention is the fast emergence of the stripe suit; I think it’s just fantastic to look at as it enhances the general sophistication of a man’s look, which is all I have always yawned or which is the chief reason for using certain men’s wear pieces. Earnestly, I think, of all the styles that seem to have sprung from time into re-existence, the stripe suit embodies all that is required of a decent ensemble which is perfectly expressed with just one word – Elegance. I suggest that you invest in one today, if you’re looking for the best suit staple for the season.
