Been to Paris and the 16th district. They definitely like slim white/super light cream cotton trousers and navy sweaters. Older guys wear those multi stripe pattern shirts sometimes.
And they actually wear the blue chore coats too, but mostly older men.
today's fit for going to the polls to vote for Ralph Norman. I know it looks pretty shoddy but it was 90 degrees today and this was the best I could do
What are some other brands that offer a similar price-to-value ratio? How does Charles Tyrwhitt compare? Although their price seems shit from Canada vs the UK/US stores.
>>18718630 Yes. Anything considered basic leisure clothes for adults 25+ in 1975 is just considered formal wear today.

Anyone ever bought chinos from Dockers? Are they any good? Need a couple pairs and don't want to pay a fortune.

>>18718983 Been a while since I tried a pair on but their Eighty-Six line looks /tip/, but also more expensive. Dockers still has some details inside like a waistband and pipin, so they're not made as cheap as humanly possible.
I have 2 pairs of 90's dockers off Vinted (see dockers label guide on internet). The material is really thick on one pair and the other is a thin summer pair, both with double pleats. There's also another anon here who said he has lots vintage pairs.

I went to a dinner with two doctors (male and female) and a female med student and some other upper class people and none of them new literal basic clothing terms. Told me I'm being too snobbish and I'm trying to hard because we were talking about the wedding we're going to and I mentioned I wanted a double breasted suit with high waist straight cut pleated trousers with no cuff and a full break.
>>18718280(OP) Is there a brand like Spier & Mackay for women? I got some clothes from them and the bang for buck is making my wife jelly.

>>18720339 What's even "Balkan" about that? That's an Indian rug with Hindu-Buddhist mandala art.

>>18720616 Stylistically Velasca's Women line maybe? At least 50% more expensive but it's made in italy. You can wait for the sitewide 20% off or catch a larger discount on a sale.

Hello brethren, /fit/izen here. Am a degenerate noob when it comes to clothing brands, especially for what to wear to work. Am wondering where I can find some good chinos. Should I be aiming for a certain material for it to be made out of too? Or keywords for the fit itself, like “fit” or “straight” if I have an athletic build? I apologize for the sheer amount of ignorance on my end.

> Should I be aiming for a certain material for it to be made out of too? Chinos means "khaki colored cotton twill trousers" so cotton woven into a "twill" pattern. 100% cotton is standard but many brands sell e.g. 97% cotton, 3% elastane, but /tip/ likes 100% cotton. Many other colors than khaki these days but khaki is standard issue.
> Or keywords for the fit itself, like “fit” or “straight” if I have an athletic build? Yeah if you have large thighs you might wanna look for "relaxed" or "loose". You don't wanna have the chinos look like leggings in the thigh area.
