[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean, Lacoste is a French brand, and they’re all about the polo shirts. [/quote] +100 The Kennedy era sportswear. I see it on MANY European men. I have lived in Spain and Germany. They do like a crisp Lacoste alligator polo and some pressed flat front pants. My parents were from Connecticut. My dad went to a prep school (poor on scholarship)--but he always had the right look. I don't like the over-the-top Vineyard Vines or too much Lily or Southern Prep that is all ruffles in over the top. I like the way Jackie O (minus her Lily) and Carolyn Bessette Kennedy did it. In a minimalist way when they were casual. The few good pieces in that type of wardrobe are very European and Jackie was a Francophile: Camelhair coat, ribbed turtlenecks, cashmere sweaters, clam diggers, camel wool skirts, minimalist column gowns, light on the jewelry and makeup (maybe just a red lip), etc.[/quote]
