Please edit the topic

"Some" Nigerian Men Lack Dress Sense

honestly, some people are making me laugh here. nigerian guys are good dressers, and they love looking good, maybe the people talikng about, the shades and the jewelry only hang out or meet the traders, because they are the ones i have seen here dress like that. i love there good sense of dresiing. americans here wear nonsense, how mqny shirts do they put on, not talking about the cold or what have u, they can't compare wit naija guys, i disagree with the people that say they don't dress well

Dress sense is personal and inborn,influenced by orientation,experience and concept.You can tell a person by the way he or she dresses.Fashion mistake in one place could be style in another,it depends on who is pulling the shot.Of course,some nigerians like in every other place,are cool dressers,natty and wannabes,it all depends on ones view of things in general,aswell as desposition.Some think is cool to spend money on expensive stuffs like gucci,prada,armani,etc,while others think of designing their own style to make money.In england,you have chavs,they dress bogusly to impress,because that kind of make them thick,in america you have getto style,what you will call street dressing.It all boils down to mind set,i will rather be simple with jeans,t-shirts ,shots and shot cut african dresses,than to bother with top brands and bogus clothes.Fashion is about money making and brainwashing.

I think we Nigerian men should be given  5 stars in good dress sense. I once worked in an Italian professional service company. The Italian expats whose salaries sound like gsm phone nos would come to work in sneakers, jeans, short sleeve shirts and top it up with ties!!!. There was a day we went to the State House. The MD (an italian) wore check tie on top of check shirt with check blazer [/b]TO MATCH[b] making him look like a graph sheet. I always wonder what happened to the fabled Italian fashion.

I think Nigerian Men put in a comendable effort. One thing I knw about Nigerians in general is that dey travel alot, watch a lot of cable TV and read alot of foreign mags. So dey follow current trends alot n with a little common sense, tdey come out rite.

don't date typical Nigerian guys so I never really had that problem. 

@poster;

Are u mad?

Common, change that topic to "Some Nigerian men lack dress sense"

This is a really very interesting topic,but i think the ladies are not been fair,what  percentage of men do they think don't really dress well?Sure i agree that some men dress in a very weird manner like weraing shades at nit and wearing jackets during hot season.Does that also mean that bankers and other coperate workers don't have a good sense of dressing,or are they reffering to area boys and motor park touts,because for me most of there findinmgs such as wearing shades at nit and jacket during hot season is very common wit are boys,it is a good topic for arguement,bur we need them to be objective.

chei TOH,small small now.
Some of us could only get our hands on typical Nigerian men LOL.

But my dear the midget ties are a no no.Short and fat ties as if they have their mother's scarf on their necks.

lol I think Larry needs those suspenders though. I mean look at his shoulders

Back in naija,the other thing that irritated me was men walking around with a toothpick sticking out of their mouths.
my other pet peeves are

1. Men grabbing their crotches and carrying on a conversation like they're preventing it from hitting the floor.

2. Body odor.I'll forgive anything but I will not forgive anyone who chooses to smell like a croaker fish.

3. A Man chewing in Jerusalem and you can hear it in Jericho.I dumped  a potential loaded suitor over this issue (I hope he's not on nairaland)
     I definitely cannot stand the embarrasement in public of my man chewing like Ewu awusa (Hausa goat)

I still think Nigerian men are the best.

sadly nothing.
I just told him I had changed my mind.
The guy even ended up getting married before me
so there was probably another girl that saw his bad table manners as a huge turn on.
That's life!

halithosis and body odor can be easily taken care of by simply seeing a dentist and using Gillette deodorant.
even my fathers "old spice" is good enough.

You're  right TOH some of our men need to step up in that area.

At some point in my residency training,I did some rotations in a men's correctional institute.
The body odor that greeted you at the entrance was unbelievable.
Then during  physical exams,I almost mastered the act of talking for long periods without breathing.
It was the longest 3 weeks of my entire adult life.
Men in prison don't wear deodorants.
So if you're like me,don't take up a job there,no amount of money will do.

the nigerian guys in the us know how to dress.
