MALE MENOPAUSE: THE SURVIVAL COURSE: THE PHYSICAL FOUNDATION

Dressing Successfully: The Ten Commandments 2: Choose classic clothes

When in doubt play safe but not dull.

If you want to look good nothing beats clothes that are styled along traditional lines in a classic mould. For example the best raincoats that rarely go out of fashion are trenchcoats, the sort that Humphrey Bogart wore to perfection in movies, the sort that Aquascutum and Burberry have made world famous. These are classic raincoats.

And equally classic are Shetland wool sweaters with crew necks, Oxford cloth shirts, plaid shirts, cords, flannels and brogues. The changes in style that affect them are only minimal. Because their design has a timeless quality, classic clothes are good investment.
