Sometimes I think what people like to call “retro” – which often means “formal” or “proper” – is a code word for “more attractive”. The styles that are supposedly of a bygone era are just the ones that make most men look more attractive. As it has frenetically become a hyper-modern society, China has tended to opt for casual, rather mediocre, types of styles. We saw at the Tweed Run how much better men can look if they dress in a slightly more formal, but at the same time, more fun style. All body types are benefited by a bit more formality. In an excessively casual world, only those with perfect bodies still manage to be attractive.
