There are the only two men's fashion movement left that are decent. Why are these movements and these looks so hated? Are you guys hating on them fashions too?

Dandyism is very hard to pin down as a look and it really is anti movement in its truest form.

People seem to love prep style and this is one of those styles like modernism and military that never really goes away in menswear.

I'm not a fan of the preppy look when it's pink sweaters over the shoulder or has an "aww gee schucks" feel to it.
