Breaking Down Men's Wearhouse Spring/Summer 2014

Yo Men’s Wearhouse, you slippin'. You got rid of the “I guarantee it,” guy and then you style your S/S14 lookbook like this? I mean, I don’t really care. I’ve never ever been inside a Men’s Wearhouse and never had to buy a suit from them, so consider this post as a PSA for all you struggle brand owners and stylists out there. Ima break this "jump-start into a younger, sleeker and more sophisticated direction" shit down look by terrible fucking look.

Who the fuck puts their gloves on like this? Um, and in spring time no less? I mean, even The Sartorialist would be like, “Whoa, way too staged, guys. Just go lean against that perfect French streetlamp and look disinterested. NOW WE’RE COOKING WITH GAS.”

Where did these stances come from? This is not a verified stance, my dudes. If you’re not gonna get into prison photo pose position or do the Asian squat, you need to just stand there and allow your strong jawline and good hair to do their jobs.

IS THIS LOOK CALLED “CLUB PROMOTER CHIC”? Seriously though kids, never, ever, ever push your jacket sleeves up like that unless you happen to come out of a blackout only to find yourself in the middle of a Michael Bastian fashion show. Also, if you’re gonna wear a six button vest WEAR A FUCKING SHIRT UNDERNEATH IT. You aren’t a bad guy in a ‘90s Michael Bay movie. Wear this getup and watch all the honeydips hold their hands over their drinks when they’re around you.

What’s with the insistence on having creepy OJ gloves in every shot? All of these look like the lead in a straight to Hulu retread of American Psycho.

Why not just go all the way and wear a tuxedo T-shirt while you're at it, bro?
