hen a sun-drenched holiday beckons with the promise of casual beach lounging, swimming and rollicking high sea adventure, a gentleman answers the (sartorial) call — whilst openly welcoming the nautical (Poseidon's) trident — not by sporting gaudy flip-flops and unflattering (read: ill-fitting) board shorts but rather by packing an exquisitely tailored capsule wardrobe of practical (yet tastefully elevated) summer essentials that immediately bespeak unto a man of style and substance whose unique sense of signature style is as characteristically endearing as it is well-merited and founded.

A Gentleman's Clothes Valet: The Jeeves Of Home Decor

4/23/2017

Comments

hile it certainly holds true that not every gentleman (very few in fact) is born (or rather groomed) into the sort of prominent family or gilded lifestyle that necessitates being honourably served by our very own — improbably well-informed and resourceful — Jeeves (i.e. a true blue gentleman's gentleman/butler), of being cut from the same cloth as one Mr. Bertie Wooster as it were, what each of us can indeed ably conscript into our immediate service (irrespective of means, social standing or vocation) as a rakish alternative.is that of the traditional clothes valet (or perhaps its cousin: the tailoring/dress form mannequin).

For near on two centuries continually revered as an exquisite (stately + quintessential) piece of interior decor wholly deserving of its vaunted pride of place in the home of every gentleman of style and substance, the at once handsome and practical clothes valet is most assuredly far from mere masculine eye-candy (which, mind you, it certainly is) or simple decor dressing inasmuch as it has continually pulled double duty as not only a tangible dress form in which one can confidently utilize to both visually experiment with the various components of his wardrobe (i.e. to confirm sartorial harmony) and to fashionably set aside what he intends to sport the following day, but also as a reliable custodian in which each of us can lay to rest our attire after a long day's wear (so as to allow it to refresh & regain its natural drape).

To that end capable of imparting a true sense of occasion as well as a touch of class and streamlined utility to our morning dressing rituals, here's why I believe it is deserving of your all due consideration alongside that of a brief dossier and shopping guide that touch upon a few fine specimens to perhaps invest in should the desire strike…

n a world beset with constant distraction and plagued by a perennial deluge of fickle seasonal trends and trivial fashions that are prized by the fashion cognoscenti for all but a fleeting moment, the reassuring timelessness and profoundly flattering utility of the Ivy-prep ((read: preppy) look to this day remains not only tastefully appealing but also a safe wardrobe haven in which gents of all walks of life can always find a comfortable solace within — a steely sartorial sextant, as it were, in a world otherwise in a perpetual state of unnerving flux and unpredictability.

Why? Perhaps because it is built upon a solid wardrobe foundation of archetypical menswear staples that are smart, fixed in structure, and simple to interchangeably style in a myriad of ways rather then that of being a form of dress that is ephemeral, overwhelming to wear, and unpredictably volatile in its merit and enduring stability.

Essentially, it is a permanent stalwart of tastefully cultivated style and timeless fashionability — a look that is (and always will be) in vogue in one form or another.
