As usual, I make my rounds: Twitter, Facebook, and then Styleforum.
This part seems unrealistic to me.

Fully agree on this. In the end, it doesn't matter where you live, people who dress well do so because they care about it.Oh come off it. The average European dresses as ****** as the average American, maybe worse. Look at Germany. Jeezus.
I regularly deal with financial and tech industry professionals from all over Europe and travel there regularly. They’ve been copying our example for years. Business casual everywhere. The only thing you’re missing is the Patagonia vests.
What’s Manton up to these days? Back to writing menswear books?
And this is not restricted to the working environment, it is also true for the personal life. Wearing tailored clothing is more a state of mind which often includes a sense for other fine things as well. Why that can be so easily abandoned by someone who has already seen the light and wrote ten thousands of emotional posts here about it is beyond me. But that is not a sign for the end of the world as we know it, it's only the capitulation of one of us. Perhaps he finally lost the fun and found other ways of spending his money. That's perfectly fine, the slightly depressing thing is that still 80% of this thread is about him. :foo:
it's 94 degrees outside with 99% humidity and I"m wearing a sportcoat and trousers, does that count?
I'd like to ask about something. I've noticed a number of you lot adopting a certain casual approach to spelling and grammar in communication. How is that possible given the strict drafting standards at these firms? Is it a struggle with mobile keyboards? Thankfully my lawyer is as conscientious in his communication as in his work... I must admit to "judging" the txtspk.Have to comment on this ...again...Nobody would dare to come to work in a Patagonia fleece in any of the Law firms in the City I have worked in during my career ( Golden circle ). I have had to send somebody to the shop to buy a new pair of trousers as he basically came in in modern super short ones and a senior Partner commented...and guess what...They went to the store and bought some new trousers. If your workplace is all creatives wearing hoodies and Japanese denim , by all means , knock yourself out but luckily there are still some dress standards and thank god about that.
