Russell Smith's 200+ page style guide is a must-have for any man aiming to develop a solid sense of style based on timeless principles and the appreciation for a proud and meticulous appearance. If you already fancy yourself a dandy, however, the advice proffered by Smith may be material already familiar to you, although the brief history lessons may still be worthwhile. For those men who have yet to graduate to the fashion advanced class, Smith collates and presents an array of rules dictating tasteful male fashion: "Rules are men's friends; they can substitute for taste" (pp.24). Although this book is relatively compact, Smith discusses all the important fashion elements: shoes, suits, jackets, shirts, ties, hardware (e.g. watches, cuff links), formal wear, casual wear, underwear, outerwear, scent, and hair. As much as this book is a presentation of facts about male clothing and appearance, however, it is also Smith freely interjecting his opinion about what he considers stylish, swanky, and even stupid. No matter your level of sartorial skill, this book is worth having, reading, and referencing if you have questions about shoes, lacing, vests, jackets, slacks, cologne, or the like.
I just finished reading Russell Smith's STYLE: The Thinking Man's Guide to Dress. I have to say I was duly impressed. I kept waiting for it to slip into the realm of snobbery, and it verged on it, but what started out as snobbery, came out, in the end, as honesty and insight.I most definitely am not the market for this book. Ostensibly this is a guide to the rules of men's fashion, and it fulfils that role well, in an interesting and witty manner. But the premise is that if you're not wearing a suit, anything goes. I hardly ever wear a suit.He does offer pointers for 'casual' dress, but feels that this is dangerous territory because most people have no sense of style, which is very true. Just take a look around. I have no real interest in the "rules" of fashion but picked the book up out of curiosity.The real rewards for me were Mr. Smith's insight into culture, trends, and class, which transcends fashion and finds applications almost everywhere. I've cited this book dozens of times to back social insights that have nothing whatsoever to do with fashion. So my take away was that this is a great read, and maybe more aptly titled, "the thinking man's guide to culture." I found it insightful and extremely readable.If you're looking for a "guide", but don't want some stuffy dry tome, you can't go wrong here. But even if you couldn't care less about the rules of fashion but enjoy good writing and social insights (in other words, you're like me) this book is still worth a look.
I purchased this book after I read Esquires guide. The author has an excellent grasp of mens fashion. He gives good advice, although his distaste for the button down shirt is questionable. He does go into some history of male fashion, which I found interesting. His advice on shirt colors and ties is excellent. He leans toward the more flamboyant side with bright silk pocket squares and bright ties. I agree with him. The dull red tie, white shirt and blue suit, remind me of 1980 IBM technicians. I bought more French Cuff shirts after ready this book on his admiration for the trend. You'll get a good overview of male fashion. I'm glad I bought this as a companion to my Esquire guide. It is always good to read two points of view. I highly recommend this book.
This book provides a good overview of different types of men’s clothing and teaches the reader how to discern quality and style. The author is not shy about giving his opinion, and while I didn’t agree with all of it, I thought his views were well informed and entertaining to read.
This is not a comprehensive, cover-every-item-you-can-have book. It is, however, a good guide to the basics (plus some) and how to wear them, for the purpose of not being judged poorly if you find yourself among the "upper crust".
This is a hard book to rate, the first chapter is great and I've actually purchased the book for other people just so they can read that one chapter. However the rest of the book isn't the best source available for the information covered. Generally for most people it's going to be good though. Despite having far fewer pictures than some other books it's actually pretty good.
Russell Smith is a Canadian writer whose work appears in The Globe and Mail, as well as the Toronto-based website, xyyz.com. In this little book, Smith provides timeless advice for selecting clothing that is both well-made and eminently stylish.For example, he walks the reader through both what to look for in finely crafted dress shirts, ties, shoes, and sportjackets, and also gives detailed advice on choosing colors, patterns, and fabrics.Though he clearly appreciates classic men's clothing, Smith departs greatly from dogmatists like Alan Flusser, reconciling the best of the "rules" with the sartorial realties of 21st century. Arguably the best of the modern style guides.
I'm in my 30s & work in both the science & media industry in New York City. When I made the transition to really caring about how I dressed, I read Russell Smith's book along with several other style books for men. His writing is practical, unambiguous, insightful, and his choice to use few illustrations a welcomed relief for helping me form my own sense of style. His book just works for me.Although I have read other books on men's style, I keep finding myself referring back to Smith's book whenever I or my friends (or family) pose questions about style, a clothing, or an event that requires dressing up. "Men's Style" is a gem. I highly recommend other guys to read it first before buying a whole bunch of other books on the same subject.
