This reminds me of a story my dad told me about visiting NYC in '76. Being a hippyish ranger from Yosemite, he mostly wore jeans, woolen shirts and boots just like a certain segment of the gay population of Manhattan. He was really suprised that there were so many really friendly New Yorkers, given their reputation as surly, until my aunt, who was living there at the time, pointed out they were gay. Then my dad noticed that their boots were all impeccable and some of them ironed (?!) their jeans.

i mean it must be p cool to be a wealthy neapolitan and the clothes sure are nice but tbh i'll be glad once the menswear set finds a new obsession, kinda sick of looking at one billion blue blazers every day

camouflage, i guess? i don't hate it and i like that designers are looking to prints and patterns but tbh it's getting to be pretty worn down as far as masculine signifiers go

don't forget the whole camouflage-with-gold-embroidered-patterns-on-it thing
