Ive noticed my taste in clothes have changed a lot over the years. i like clothes that are more streamlined, fitted, modern. I work in finance sales and trading and want to look good but i dont want to overdo it with being so fashion forward. i also hate big slack pants and blousy baggy shirts. i like it fitted, clean, trendy but classic. GQish i suppose? or esquire?
1)Zara. what is your experience with their slacks and dress shirts? im 5'9, 165-170 lbs with a 31-32 waist. chest is 38-40. is their clothes a bit too fashion forward? i tried on some slacks and they were very narrow at the botton (this goes into a question later on). These pants look like the slimness of a prada suit i suppose. can i wear pants like this to work or is it too much.
2) Dress shirts. i tried the charles tyrwhitt slim fits which are pretty good but still a BIT baggy. id imagine id have to wear these with standard dress slacks from chlares tyrwhitt which fit great. i like them. the zara seems a bit more fitted.
3)shoes. with pants like the ones described, can i get away with wearing a shoe like the allen edmonds dryden? i dont own these but wanted to know if you guys think this shoe is too clunky for slim fitting pants. i dont want the clown shoe effect.
my problem is my neck. i have a 16.5 inch neck but never wear ties to work. i have a bit of a muscular build so any shirt i wear that fits around the chest will be too tight around the neck.
thanks for your help.
