Yes, I told you, The tailored man is coming back!!!!

Yes, It is recorded! I told you.... December 21, 2009 in the post called "Male Predictions!!!!!"  I stated that men were going to start dressing a bit more classy. I even went into further  detail on how a suit should be worn in my post "Men...Please Tailor your suits!" 6/11/12.  In two different posts I explained that male fashion was going to go back to a more tailored look. Suits, bow ties, wing tipped shoes...It is now in the the beginning stages of what I predicted 6 years ago.. the age of the New sophisticated man... again... or

"Classic man" as the artist Jidenna so eloquently puts it.

What is amazing is some of the pictures I posted 6 years ago look pretty much like the exact pictures of what he has in his video!!... especially the shoes.

 I am always excited to write an "I told you so post" because it confirms to myself that I am a fashion forecaster and what I see will happen, eventually. You are all experiencing this journey with me.

Lets start with the shoes..

Below are the shoes I predicted would come back in style,

Below are the shoes that Jidenna is wearing in the video

        These two pairs of shoes are pretty much

The same shoes I posted 6 years ago! 

They pretty much have these shoes in all of the stores.

Next let's talk about suspenders,

Sir, Classic Man

And now for the tailored suits.
Will Smith and the model look so dapper in their suits I posted 6 years ago, there is nothing better than a man in a well tailored suit!!!

     

Here are amazing examples of the tailored suit on Jidenna, doesn't he look amazing!

I love his red hair

 

 The bow tie, from my post, we have seen bow ties a lot in the past few years, 

now we will have the whole ensemble.

And the bow tie displayed so nicely on this young man

Below we see the umbrella as an accessory as I said is going to happen in my June 14, 2015 post

Umbrellas, the new accessory

This picture below is my favorite, it sets the tone.
Strong, confident, classy men.....LOVE IT!

We usually see fashion first on celebrities, T.V, magazines or on social media. This video "Classic Man" is starting the beginning of the larger trend. So, if you don't own a button up collar shirt, or a nice pair of pants, or even a pair of shoes that aren't athletic shoes, you might want to slowly start adding to your closet, cause you really don't want to be left behind when this trend takes fire. The train is already moving.
