2. Wearing short socks underneath your trousers


It’s a total No No to wear short socks. The right thing to do is to wear socks that go way up tp your calves, so when you sit, your skin remains invisible.


Does it matter?

money can correct wrong dressing, as Ppl look @ your pocket not dressing..

Who cares if your tie is 50feet long....

Most celebrities dress badly,Bt no body cares .....

4. Buttons on Suits


It’s considered a fashion blunder to button up your suit jacket. If it’s a suit with 3 buttons, button 2 and fly one. And if it’s a 2 button suit, button up one and fly the other.

I find this very stupi.d out of other dress code rules for men. What is the other button there for if you cannot button it up. I do that and its super cool!

Your list is subjective. Fashion is all about wearing what makes you feel comfortable and also appealing to people. Even at that, not everyone will approve of your apparels, choice of colors and style. I personally stick to wearing what makes me feel comfortable and sending the right message by my appearance at the same time.

Wearing straight ties with shortsleeved shirts is not a fashion flop to me. Your choice of colors and your personal mien are factors to consider if you mean to look dashing and acceptable.

3. Wearing warped shoes


I know they might be your favorite and you’re not sure of finding them on any shoe shelf, please leave them at home. Some things don’t last forever.

I really don't think there's such thing as 'fashion blunder.' What is trendy is what many go with.

Fashion is an individual thing and it is definitely dynamic, what seems cool today may be odd tomorrow.

...buh you shouldn't wear something that offends or irritates others though.

My opinion though.

the OP posted a bunch of nonsense..
bfor you quote me...

"who in the world made fashion rules?"
and how may I get the constitution?

dressing is about ones culture, mood etc.. and above all possession(wealth)

there's nothing.. I repeat NOTHING wrong with #1... the only thing I agree with is the *baggy dressing*"

1. Wearing straight ties with shortsleeved shirts


That’s a major fashion blunder. You’re no longer in high school. Preferably, if you must wear a tie, try bow ties instead. They look way better.

Re: 7 Fashion Mistakes Common To The Nigerian Man by abbey621(m): 2:28pm On Jul 12, 2016
Topics like this needs to come with a warning ***OPINION****! What is fashion? Is it not people experimenting with different combinations and styles of dressing, presenting it to the world till it becomes acceptable or a trend. The baggy shirt or jeans is fashionable to certain demographics, short socks are fashionable depending on the occasion or combination. At a point in time people went gaga for TM shirts, now it's basically poo, at a point in time double breasted suits with vests were the toast of the business world now it's a burden. So I ask again what is fashion?

5. Wearing oversized/baggy shirts

Shirts aren’t supposed to be baggy. They’re supposed to fit! A good rule of thumb is to get a shirt that fits as close to your body as you can while you retain free range of movement in your arms.

I don't agree with this OP. If you are wearing a starched sleeve it has to be big. Then it can standout . Abi you never wear starch sleeve before.

Infact this post alone is enough for me to say this post is a copy and paste post and not an original post.
