Everyday people making the difference . . .
BY SUDAN FURBERT
For as long as I can remember the media has told us what and what not to wear. It has broadcasted an image that many emulate with the lack of personal input. Blindly following trends simply because they are deemed to be in-style or simply because everyone else is wearing them. However over the last few years, it appears as if women have been able to break this predictably endless ideology. But, what about our men?
How many men (young AND old) do you see walking around with absolutely no effort in how they present themselves? There is minimal style, limited personality and frankly a lack of any individuality. I reckon they should all throw caution to the wind and take ‘harmless’ risk with personal expression!
Combining grit and gentrification, duo Joshua and Travis of Street Etiquette are igniting the way in which menswear will redevelop. Inspired heavily by the Harlem Renaissance, these young men have found a way to impeccably create artistic styling ideas, which portray what they stand for. And, rightly so!
They have grasped the daunting task of finding personal appeal in unique clothing and eclectic accessories, allowing them to gain admiration from countless followers. Currently, they live in the Bronx and hopefully will soon be able to take their flourishing style blog to a physical location where men can indulge in their dapper approach to artistic expression.
