Mandatory Retirement: THE VEST
Posted by Dewan Gibson | Filed under Fashion
During the past two years THE VEST has become the men’s nightclub uniform. It all started so very innocent after a few fashion trendsetters decided to take scraps from a three-piece suit and and create and dressy but casual look. It was a smooth and easy alternative to the previous nightclub uniform: blazer and striped shirt worn untucked. Justin Timberlake, Pharrell, Shia Lebeouf all wore it and wore it well. Then the douchebags got to it and ruined it for the rest of us. Unable to relinquish the early 2000′s baggy style they started wearing ill-fitting button down shirts UNTUCKED with an otherwise great vest. Worse yet the muscleheads fucked it up even more by going shirtless and using a vest to cover their steroid injection marks. So today June 10th The Vest is retired. Put that shit deep in your closet and save it for your son 20 years down the road. Well hold on, I’m going clubbing in DC this weekend and need to get a couple more days use out my vest. Sorry…
