Synopsis
Dressing the Man is the definitive guide to what men need to know in order to dress well and look stylish without becoming fashion victims. Alan Flusser's name is synonymous with taste and style. With his new book, he combines his encyclopedic knowledge of men's clothes with his signature wit and elegance to address the fundamental paradox of modern men's fashion: Why, after men today have spent more money on clothes than in any other period of history, are there fewer well-dressed men than at any time ever before According to Flusser, dressing well is not all that difficult, the real challenge lies in being able to acquire the right personalized instruction. Dressing well pivots on two pillars - proportion and color. Flusser believes that "Permanent Fashionability," both his promise and goal for the reader, starts by being accountable to a personal set of physical trademarks and not to any kind of random, seasonally served-up collection of fashion flashes. Unlike fashion, which is obliged to change each season, the face's shape, the neck's height, the shoulder's width, the arm's length, the torso's structure, and the foot's size remain fairly constant over time. Once a man learns how to adapt the fundamentals of permanent fashion to his physique and complexion, he's halfway home. Taking the reader through each major clothing classification step-by-step, this user-friendly guide helps you apply your own specifics to a series of dressing options, from business casual and formalwear to pattern-on-pattern coordination, or how to choose the most flattering clothing silhouette for your body type and shirt collar for your face. A man's physical traits represent his individual road map, and the quickest route toward forging an enduring style of dress is through exposure to the legendary practitioners of this rare masculine art. Flusser has assembled the largest andmost diverse collection of stylishly mantled men ever found in one book. Many never-before-seen vintage photographs from the era of Cary Grant, Tyrone Power, and Fred Astaire are employed to help illustrate the range and diversity of authentic men's fashion. Dressing the Man's sheer magnitude of options will enable the reader to expand both the grammar and verbiage of his permanent-fashion vocabulary. For those men hoping to find sartorial fulfillment somewhere down the road, tethering their journey to the mind-set of permanent fashion will deliver them earlier rather than later in life., Dressing the Man is the definitive guide to what men need to know in order to dress well and look stylish without becoming fashion victims.

For those men hoping to find sartorial fulfillment somewhere down the road, tethering their journey to the mind-set of permanent fashion will deliver them earlier rather than later in life., Men lavished more money on their clothes during the last 25 years than ever before in history. With Dressing the Man, Alan Flusser has written the definitive book on how men should dress, how they can be stylish without being fashion victims, and how they can feel secure and confident in whatever they wear, wherever they go. He addresses the latest trends in menswear--business casual, for example--but maintains his focus on what he calls Permanent Fashion, the clothing a man should own because it never goes out of style. Luxuriosly illustrated with many never-before-seen vintage photographs, this user-friendly guide follows Flusser's principle that, "It is not difficult to dress well; the real challenge is acquiring the right information."

  • The Classic Book on Finding and Developing Your Style

    This book is a classic. If you want to learn about fashion, even though fashion is in the title, this book is probably not for you as fashion is fleeting. This book is about style and how to find yours and what works best for you. Style, unlike fashion, never goes out of . . . well, Style!

  • Fantastic book

    Great book that explains timeless classic men's wear from shoes to hats, fabrics, skin tones. The book has wonderful pictures in it too. It's an inspiring road map and serves as a useful template.

  • Dressing The Man by Alan Flusser

    I had already gotten 2 other books by Alan Flusser, "Style and the Man & Clothes and the Man." He is one of the most interesting writers on the subject of men's style. This is his best work,in my opinion. This book has the best explanations about the evolution of men's style and the particulars of dressing.It's all done in a very factual way, although the language gets a little pretentious at times. If you're going to have one book about men's style to learn from, start with this one. I've now read about 20 books on men's style and consider this to be the cornerstone. Enjoy!

  • Required reading for any man who wants to be well dressed

    Having read "Clothes and The Man" many times over the years I was happy to finally get a copy of Alan Flusser's update to what is still an excellent book on how a man should dress. This was much more of a very good thing. I will pick this up from time to time to be reminded of how it's done. This will be required reading for my sons as well. It should be required reading for any man who wants to understand how to dress in a way that will not render you a victim or slave of ever worsening fashion, but instead develop style that endures over the course of time.

  • Excallent book on the subject. Probably the best book on men's fashion out there.

    This is the book to read when you want to dress well. It discusses the shape of your body, from your face to your neck to see wgich type of collars go with it. To types, types of shirts and all down the line. High recommendation
