>>18660473Too old money for casual wear. I wish that it wasn't.
>>18660473I like wearing it in the summer with an unbuttoned shirt, it's a perfect balance of sensual and refined, but it's also tryhard. If you have a body you would like to show off, an unbuttoned shirt is good enough, and if you wear a suit, it's just pretentious.
>>18660473My objecting to the wearing of ascot in my own life is to do with it basically requiring me to be unbuttoned if I wear a normal button down. Although if you wear fine bespoke tailoring, this will make you look old-money and handsome! You will beckon all the way back to the 19th century with the choice. And if I'm not mistaken, if you wear a tuxedo style collar and a waistcoat, the ascot works wonderfully on the outside-buttoned up -- I have a photo of my great-great grandfather dressed like that, circa 1910-ish!!Alas, in spite of the whole of the 21st century of men in menswear, I always have my top button buttoned up. That was a fashion redpill for me. All I see on the street in downtown Toronto are men's collars burst open, with the terrible tie-less vaccum burning into the core of each. Ugly!
For tryhard faggots
not unless you're fred jones from scooby doo
>>18660473Probably will get at least one or two to try at some point
>*scooby doo noises*
>>18660473I wish stuff like this would come back. I hate that literally anything that isn't a tshirt and sweatpants is now labelled tryhard.
>>18660473Roger Sterling can pull this off. You can't.
>>18660473I just found out about these an hour ago. I definitely want to try them this summer. Most of the year I wear a suit and tie to church. Last summer I wore this and blue jeans sans tie. I plan on getting a light-mid blue linen blazer too. I think I'll swap the jeans out for chinos and finish with ascots. Maybe I can work them into more casual gatherings. IDK, either way I'm bringing ascots back baby.
>>18662371Good luck on your endeavour.
>>18660480ascots like in picrel are casual (modern cravats).i like to wear them with v-neck sweaters in the fall/spring.
>>18660473I've always thought both they and the earlier historical cravats were superior aesthetically to neckties. What a downgrade we got.
>>18660473in deus ex human revolution, set in 2027, white collar workers loved polyester/silk ascots, typically gold colour
