You also don't have to wear tailoring. My friend @DavidLaneDesign , who posts under the name bigfits1 on Instagram, is super stylish because he knows how to dress for his body type and how to use clothes as social language. There are lots of great casual looks on his Instagram

A lot of people have a hard time separating body type from style. This outfit would not look good on anyone. He needs a jacket; the sweater would look better if it was textured; blue chinos are hard to wear. This same outfit would look bad on a skinny or athletic person. 🧵

I don't mention body shape because it's not a barrier to dressing well, and my page is about menswear, not body shapes. It's true that DeSantis' clothes don't fit particularly well but that's about the fit of his clothes, not his body shape

A case where tapering is necessary. If you look at the pants from the knee down, it buckles unnaturally making the opening less flared and more kinked. Taking them in from just above the knee to the cuff should solve this, making for a cleaner line from the waist down. Thoughts?

I may be a double rider guy after all. I never liked the fit on any of the ones from Schott, and most other brands are just too small. This vintage Sears piece is spot on though. What does everyone think?
