Men’s style: The Banker Look is out, D’Oh
The conservative 3-button suit is ’so OVER’. Its former wearers are now being subpoenaed and their wives are forced to live with less luxuries, boo hoo.
But there isn’t a dire drop in suit purchases, instead men are replacing their banker suits with ‘creative professional’ suits. Gingham shirt, knit tie, trim suit. Stuff no banker in his right mind would be seen in.
Funny how the orange jumpsuit signifying a prison term can affect men’s fashion!
The new look is still professional enough for work gambling, even a business lunch. But it is quirky and cool enough to suggest that you haven’t spent the last decade lounging in the old boys’ room inhaling cigar smoke and default swaps.
