SUIT AND ITS PLACE IN DIGITAL AGE
Not being worn as much as it was decades ago, will suits gradually disappear over time?

Even
British people who are famous for their elegant style, today they are no longer
too fond of wearing suits everyday. According to The Independent, only 1 out of
10 men wears a full set to work. They prefer casual clothes because they are much
comfortable and affordable. In contrast to casual clothing, a summer jacket
costs twice as much as normal. Not to mention that dressing up requires too
many fashion rules that not everyone has the conditions to meet.
Life
of a middle-class man will be at least two times dressed: his wedding and the
wedding of his children. Depending on the job and geographic culture, he may
wear more: once at a prom night, once for a job interview, and then it will be
a job that requires him to do a whole week. In difficult economic situation, is
it worth spending a few million dong for a piece of clothes that you might not
wear for the whole year?
New
digital era successful monuments such as Steve Jobs or Mark Zuckerberg do not
wear suits, but choose the seven-day normcore style as one with t-shirts or
sweaters in jeans and sneakers. This further convinces young people of the
image of a successful person not necessarily wearing clothes.
With
streetwear flourishing and expanding, today’s young people prefer t-shirts, jeans
and sneakers over suits, even though the cost of a Louis Vuitton x Supreme
hoodie is even more expensive than a suit ..
Does
it mean that the suit will be “extinct”? That’s right if we just let
it go. The indifference not “dress up” is still there, but many
efforts to make suits become great again are continuously born.
Although
restrictive, the image of a gentleman in a suit always captivates women. This
contributes to making men “take the trouble” to dress more easily in
the fashion era. In addition, the movie industry also contributes significantly
when promoting the image of handsome actors dressed in suits such as 007,
Kingsman, John Wicks, making young audiences more motivated to wear beautiful.
Who wouldn’t want to be both handsome and cool?
Brands
also have their own mission. Many designers have a distinct style that has
turned classic costumes into more fashion with fancy details. Simply use
textured, printed or embroidered textiles. A little more sophisticated, the use
of special textiles creates an impressive surface. Some use reconstructing
techniques to create new shapes and cuts.
Thanks
to Pitti Uomo, where images of men gather to show off the best suits with a
variety of combinations that make the aversion of a rigid suit completely shattered.
Men in Asian market, especially Southeast Asia, are dominated by Europe’s
essential and everyday notion of good wear.
