It’s a complete cliche that men don’t know how to dress. And not only do most men have enough sense of style that they don’t embarrass themselves, many can put together an unequivocally on-point look.
That said, most cliches contain a grain of truth. If your husband is one of those men who can’t tell the difference between magenta, pink and purple, he may need some help putting an outfit together. Many of the pieces we’ve included here can be worn well into spring as well.
In this article: Invachi Peacoat, Calvin Klein Dress Pants and Winterlace Beanie 12-Pack.
Parts of an outfit
For men, there are typically four main parts of an outfit:
- Top: This category contains everything you wear around the chest. This means every kind of shirt, but also other layers such as jackets or undershirts.
- Bottom: This category contains shorts, pants and underwear such as boxers.
- Shoes: This category contains, well, shoes. This means sneakers, dress, slide-ons and the like.
- Accessories: This category is much wider. It can mean bracelets and necklaces, rings for the fingers and ears, watches and hats, among others.
