Picture 1, it's Asian trend, looks coherent.these guys are who I look toward for inspiration. They really display that they are not new to clothes.

anything besides these looks and I view the wearer to be new to clothes and unable to make coherent and informed decisions.
Picture 1, it's Asian trend, looks coherent.
Picture 2, idk who that is, also he didn't cut the tag off the cuff?
Picture 3, Mossrocks, great guy.
Picture 4, idk who that is, wearing S&M probably not that advanced.
Picture 5, idk who that is, celebrities get dressed by their stylists anyway.
Thanks for info ?Pic2 is Bieber in FoG. Never handled their suiting in person but it may not be possible to remove it since it's not the usual tag from more CM makers.
I don't know, man. I heard a lot about language and coherence and historical norms and stuff. Is it now meant to be understood that both meaning and history change according to the person who is speaking? Like, people who dress well exist in a different universe, where things were worn differently in the Golden Age? Or maybe for them there was no Golden Age in the past, and they're actually creating it now. (Interesting theory...and about as sensical as any other explanation.)DWW generally tells people not to wear oxfords when they aren't wearing a suit because 95% of the guys don't know what the **** they are doing. How many guys in actual reality dress as well as Kamoshita or Andrea Sweinas?
There isn't that much thought when dressing at a higher level. Effortless = elegance. Thinking too much = try hard.I don't know, man.

What I want to hear is what those people are actually thinking when they use care and thoughtfulness to make nuanced exceptions. Like, what makes oxfords okay with some outfits but not others, to them. I'd like to hear someone walk us through that, from a good dresser's point of view. How else will the 95% ever figure out what the **** they're doing?
Or...maybe the guy selling the 'rule' also doesn't know what they are doing, and thus can't explain it any other way?

I love all the ways we have to torture the argument just to beat one ounce of sense out of it. Study the past, look at pictures, learn what connotations things have, do your homework, enrich your vocabulary...unless you really want to get good, in which case ignore it all.There isn't that much thought when dressing at a higher level.

You can listen to Mark Cho explain his train of thought, or ask him when he live streams on YouTube again.

I mean, we now seem to be at the point where we're saying not to pay attention to how good dressers dress. That, my friend, is the strategy of a loser. Call it playing it safe or whatever else you like...but it's the self-defeating strategy of a loser.
I have no doubt that Mark Cho would never wear oxfords with a sportcoat. (He strikes me as much more at home in loafers at any rate, so I doubt he'd even be tempted.) So I wouldn't be interested in his own thought process. Rather, I'd be interested in hearing him explain why it doesn't seem to bother other people.
