cultural style muses - october (monk + eero)

Come one come all to the most stylishly perplexing month of all, the equally dreaded — what to wear when its too hot for winter outerwear yet too cold for summer attire ordeal — and lauded month of seasonal style transition: October.

And with October comes the official ushering in of autumn and its perennially definitive characteristics — holiday celebrations, brisk weather conditions, pumpkin everything — and, yes, a slew of fresh new styles, movies, and sounds to satisfy your every cultural desire.

So as personal habit dictates, I've taken it upon myself to once again scouring the cultural landscape with the desire of satiating my style inspiration wanderlust.

The Masquerade Ball: A Gentleman's Halloween Soirée

Part formal event, part halloween tradition: A cultured history + modern style guide to the quintessential Halloween party for the discerning modern gent -- the black-tie masquerade ball

Words + Graphics ~ By Lyle Eero ~ 17 October 2015

Decadent, luxuriously stylish, mysteriously intriguing, and captivatingly charming!

Gents, I give you the (black-tie) masquerade ball.

All-hallows-eve and the discerningly stylish gentleman…certainly not a match made in sartorial heaven by any means. And yet, if one were to delve far enough back into the annals of history they would find that — despite Halloween being a modern celebration wrought in kitschy (but amusing) cheap costumery — there are indeed examples of this most dark of holidays being celebrated with refined panache and ornate style.

And the most sartorially flattering of them all…the worldly renowned masquerade ball.

Classic + timeless!

Never has that distinction been more aptly denoted to a singular iconic style then to that of the aesthetics of the sporting (English or French) country gentleman.

In my mind they personify the quintessential (casually-inclined yet refined) sartorial gentlemen who comfortably sauntered about though the countryside with style and grace. They were both posh and primp, frolicking through the woods — and within the walls — of their countryside estates with proper distinction and nary a thread out of place, always stylish yet inherently practical in both purpose and intent.

A discerning modern gents guide to a stylish autumn & attending a Volksfest without looking like a costumed gimmick

Words + Graphics ~ By Lyle Eero ~ 4th October 2015

Beer, schweinebraten, lederhosen, and a seemingly endless amount of scantily clad (busty) women sauntering about in flatteringly uplifting traditional dirndl.

You know the drill gents — it's Oktoberfest!
