Hi guys!

Just a quick question here -- does anybody know of any good blogs/forums/websites on Bohemian style clothing for men, like there is popular websites for Urban style? (e.g. Johnny Depp, some Colin Farrell and Orlando Bloom, etc.)

Tried to find anything, but unsuccessful; just some poor few examples of men in bohemian clothes, and loads websites for females on the subject.

Thanks!

I suggest starting with Tweed in the City, if only for the pioneering use of sweatshirts.

After that, every men's clothing blog that isn't A Suitable Wardrobe.

Seriously, I'd say "bohemian" is the lynchpin of the massive men's clothing fad on the Internet. Everyone wants to look different, mostly in the same way.

Start at the Sartorialist and go from there.

Hmmm..now I have doubts. Perhaps by "Bohemian," OP is thinking more Georg and Yortug Festrunk?

Thanks, but doesn't seem like the guy is a big fan of bohemian lifestyle/clothing.


If by bohemian you mean something like like this:



You could find more information here: http://www.czechheritage.net/herifolk.html

Here's an excerpt:

"Bohemia (Western half of Czech Republic):
Blouse: White with roomy sleeves (but not pleated or full like in Moravia). No embroidery on the blouse sleeves. Usually no fabric below the elbow.
Vest: Relatively simple (except those from Chod region where woman's vests are beaded). May be laced in front as opposed to buttons or frog clasps.
Skirt: Relatively simple, not full of rick-rack, just a few lines on the bottom of the skirt. Often softer colors and richer fabrics.
Apron: Often most of the handwork was done to the apron, which could be embroidery (colored or white on white) or even beadwork as in kroje from the Blata region of South Bohemia.
Head Covering: Head coverings vary in greatly Bohemia. If you don t have the correct cap, you may wear a floral wreath. Keep in mind that the head covering usually indicates marital status.
Footwear: Often red stockings/tights and black shoes. Sometime white stocking are used."
