For many dedicated fashion lovers, thumbing through one’s social media for all the latest street-style looks during the men’s shows is pure entertainment. In fact, one could notice that it has become a way of life that most people own a smart phone. What men wear attending the collections is influential to those who admire great style. In a sense, the stylish influencer is selling a lifestyle to those watching. So much so, that we forget what the collection was even really about.

But there seems to be a major problem lately. A God awful one to be exact. As style is being distributed through streetwear, some trends that were once elegant and demure, are now starting to disappear and instead look really not from this plant. It is one thing to showcase your personal style, but boys are we really going to look like a horrible mess? This simply won’t do and frankly, looks totally ridiculous. Shoppers desires impact and want something new and fresh. While influencers, will rock just about anything they wouldn’t dare buy themselves.

When it comes to women, we tend to stick with a more refined style and even add a bit edge to measure. But with men of late, it seems to be missing its mark. Who wants to look at some weird style if you can’t actually go outside and wear it? Practicality comes into the mix. You can still show your own taste within the trends to not end up looking like a bum on the street corner.

It is easy to trace the God-awful origin story, that moment in menswear when you see those crazy pea coats with press pleated trousers, canes and capes started to look like they were way over the top and defiantly trying way to hard. Leave the exaggerated styles to the designer’s runway collections guys.
