(Totally inspired by another thread..)

AIBU to ask what your perfect man's clothing would be? With as many details as possible please! Maybe also, as this is all for fun, your clothing nightmares.

I personally quite like skinnyish jeans on a guy, otherwise plaid shirts and layers, smartish but hints at outdoorsiness and practicality. Maybe my wildest fantasies could include a fine suit. My nightmare would be tracksuit. Joggers.

Ideally a suit with crisp white shirt casually I love slim fit blue jeans with a white teeshirt

ohmygolli · 16/12/2024 13:10

Clean white shirt, cufflinks? Maybe.. top two buttons undone
grey trousers, smart.
dark brown shoes that match his belt.
plain socks, nothing out there. no holes 😂

nothing bulging in his pockets (Wallet phone etc. I hate that my dh always has his pockets full and it ruins his outfit!!)

a nice clean aftershave..

medium-long hair. Groomed well. Short beard.

Proper nice Black tracksuit and trainers or Stone Island cord shirt/Jeans and Clarks Wallabys. Got to be a tall handsome man 😂

Turniptracker · 16/12/2024 13:14

Chainmail and a sword

pimplebum · 16/12/2024 13:15

Plumber / electrician / carpenter tool belt (clothes optional 😂)
holding a child care certificate and pushing a cleaning cart
baby over shoulder

This for me, except maybe the long hair, unless he could really pull it off

Stone Island?! Really?!

whatwouldyoudoifisangoutofkey · 16/12/2024 13:17

Slim, not skinny, heavy black denim jeans with dark brown Dr Martin shoes
Dark green flannel shirt. Black t shirt under..

FuckItItsFine · 16/12/2024 13:19

I’m not that fussed to be honest. As long the clothing is clean and free from holes 😁

I fancy DH in a T-shirt and joggers. I prefer casual to “smart” clothing.

ItGhoul · 16/12/2024 13:23

Black jeans, white shirt, black jacket, black Chelsea boots, all well worn and not new/crisp. I don't really like men to look overly smart, not in a modern way anyway. Men haven't looked good in suits since about 1960.

sweetpickle2 · 16/12/2024 13:24

Like Harry Styles.

Portakalkedi · 16/12/2024 13:25

Not too bothered as long as it's clean and age appropriate. No to tracksuits, skintight jeans, showing bare ankles or t shirts with stupid slogans. Suited and booted would be nice.

Wendysfriend · 16/12/2024 13:26

Skinny jeans, fluorescent coloured boxers, all white Ted baker trainers.

FartingAgainstThunder · 16/12/2024 13:26

A cream Arran knit jumper, darkish blue straight leg jeans with brown boots, whilst smelling of sandalwood soap and looking like a cross between Henry Cavill and Jason Momoa.

Haha yeah. Is it the 90s again?

I love the way my DH dresses. Black skinny jeans (not painted on stretchy type, I hate those. Good thick material), long sleeve check shirt/flannel, slightly rugged street-style outdoorsy trainers (does that description even make sense), modern bomber style coat. He looks sexy as 😻

@petedicks @Jc2001 It kind of is, isn't it? DH got all his old SI clobber out and looks so fucking great - luckily he is the same/shape size he was in his early 20s when he was a model......

I think when I say medium long it’s Henry Cavill to Patrick Dempsey length. Nothing crazy 😂

I figured it was OK if it wasn't continuing a grievance or disruptive in any way, it was just for fun, the posts were begging so many questions

Clothes I never had to wash because he does his own laundry.
