UNDER 20
In that age group, most people are extremely casual and sometimes they're even outright sloppy so if you want to be dressed better than your peers and an age group you really don't have to do that much to stand out from the crowd. The basic idea for this age group is casual layering.
Definitely, skip the baseball cap, it makes you look immature. Instead, if you want to wear a hat, maybe consider a flat cap in the fall winter season. As layering is very important in your age group, I suggest you go with sweaters because they keep you warm in the winter, they add a little book to your build which easily comes off as muscles, and they keep you warm If you are up for a cardigan, you can even take it off if it's too hot and that makes it very flexible, casual but well-dressed.
MID 20s
If you’re in a sales position or if you're in a white-collar profession, you will definitely need a lot more suits than one. If you're not, I suggest to invest more in combinations. Maybe of a blazer would be a great first garment to start and overall, I suggest you check out our guide on the 10 clothing items that every man should have because that's the foundation of your wardrobe that will last you a lifetime and you'll get a lot of wear out of it because it's very versatile and flexible.
THE MID-20s or MID/LATE THIRTIES
A great wardrobe staple is probably Oxford shirt, especially with a button-down collar. It's something that you can still wear either casually or combined with a jacket or suit. Polo shirts are nice if you maybe want to play golf or hang out with your children on the weekend but they're not something you should wear to the office, not even on casual Fridays.
THE MID-40s TO ABOUT 65
Instead of using bolder colors to differentiate your outfit, I suggest to go with different textures and especially subtle patterns. You can go with window panes instead of solids, herringbones not just finer but bigger, maybe a classic Prince of Wales check that is larger in black and white that goes well with your gray hair. These are all things that can really help you develop an outfit that is very age appropriate yet very stylish.
65 AND UP
If you're 65 and up, you're likely retired or you're looking forward to retirement. You either spend your days on a golf course or hang out with friends playing cards, working at the woodshop, and at that stage of your life, the degree of formality goes down. Now is the time to add sweaters back into your wardrobe, maybe skip the blazer unless you really like to dress up, however, one thing I notice a lot is that men change their physique yet the Wardrobe remains the same and it sometimes makes them look quite dated.

[@alekskensington5494]

I'm 16 and I love wearing suits, blazers, and just overall dressing older than I look. I think it makes me look more mature than I would otherwise be perceived at first glance. I would much rather wear a suit than casual wear even when I go to college I have worn a suit no reason I just wanted to. It felt great and I got compliments from everyone including the teacher. He said, "not many of the younger generations are willing to spend time looking good but you do and I think that will take you farther in life than just about anyone else."

[@caesarortega5249]

Keep it up! I started wearing suits more or less everyday since I was 13. I worked in an antique store after school and on the weekends and would buy old ill fitting suits cheaply, no one ever bothered me about it really and all my friends wore casual clothes. I even did it in the ghetto (every one keeps saying they can't do it in their hood) I went into sales and now I'm 31 and I work for a major financial institution remotely as a sort of consigliere helping move along corporate credit card applications and early fulfillment even though I dropped out of school. It's like Jordan Belfort says " A suit can't close your deals for you but it can open doors that may be closed otherwise."

[@rdr2v1nce7]

I'm 15 and I wear a jacket, black jeans in the same tone as my jacket, a black t-shirt and sneakers. Edit: I also wear a silver ring and use a silver pocketwatch. Edit2: Nowadays I wear white airforce ones or boots with blue jeans, a pullover, a scarf and depending on the temperatur a jacket, trenchcoat or a winter overcoat. I've switched from my pocket watch to one of my dress watches, my dive watch or my chronograph.

[@fernandoferreira6293]

At that age it's truly irrelevant what you wear. At eighteen I was as oblivious to clothing as I've been until a month ago when I realised at my age I may get ready for a nice burial and so if that's unavoidable I may as well die in (a proper) style.

[@commanderkittycat6513]

Same here my guy! I started wearing suits since I was 13, and I loved it! I still do!

[@CatHostage]

How’s that turning out for you friend? I feel similarly, and am finishing college now. I would suggest however, you tone down full suits, for sport jackets, a lot more fun variety, i buy tweed and other wool and patterned jackets at thrift stores all the time, easily paired with chinos or black jeans and a button down shirt or turtleneck. Cheers!

[@machopi]

If i starting dressing like that in my hood i'd probably get shot before getting robbed.

[@perplexedblerd1278]

I laughed at this more than I should've 😆

[@mlwilliams7959]

I live in Ohio and unless you are going to work in a major city, you don't wear a suit ever. Even lawyers take off their suits by 5 pm. You don't even wear suits to church unless you belong to a religion that demands it. Weddings and funerals depend upon the time and the formality of the religious group.

[@alexandrebarthelemy6763]

Haha reading this I started imagining wearing this in my old so so nice city. not a fun alternate timeline !

[@elonmush4793]

You should not look like someone who's doing other people's taxes when you're not old enough to do your taxes yourself. When you're under 20, dress casually, that's fine. This video is only relevant when you're 25 or older.

[@saiyajedi]

I live in Japan, where suits are still the norm for any white-collar job. (And the blue-collar ones have uniforms.) Problem is, most people wear them so dang sloppily, like they’re still rebelling against that school uniform they wore in their teens….

[@Rednospunk]

Haha, that picture of "Review Brah"!

[@gentlemansgazette]

As we have always said, each to his own, and that is true for Review Brah as well as for anybody else. I said a teenager that looks like that is odd. The definition of odd is" different from what is usual or expected; strange." and I stand by that. In 2017 Review Brah's outfits are different from what is usual or expected for a person his age. That being said, it is admirable that he has found a style that works for him at such young age. We meant absolutely no disrespect.

[@organ444]

Haha, the fact that Raphael knows about ReviewBrah is the best thing I've heard today!

[@gentlemansgazette]

His video on why he wears a suit was suggested next to one of hours, so I watched it and learned about him. I am really not into fast food though...

[@organ444]

Gentleman's Gazette Report of the Week is somewhat of a sensation among teenage and young adult viewers, so its rather funny that he gets a mention on such a mature channel, and also that you refer to him by his fan-dubbed nickname "ReviewBrah". All jokes aside, I really enjoy your videos, Raphael, thanks for the great content.

[@quebon2]

John, AKA "Reviewbrah", is one of those people you then mention at .56 seconds. He's developed his own unique style which has become his trademark and it's the way people recognize him. To me that is the epitome of originality, and he wears it well.

[@toydigger]

Gentleman's Gazette Can you make a video on how to buy clothing on Ebay? Even after measuring my size ( was it done right?), I still haven't bought the right size suit and dress shirt. Especially international sizes are confusing. For instance I live in the Netherlands but bought a shirt from France through Ebay, yet it was still far to large. The suit was from the US. But was to large even when it was a size smaller from the local cheap department store(40 instead of 42). The suit was still to large from the department suit and I had to make it smaller at the tailor. Albeit, the material from the shirt and suit were good. Size and material problems came from buying US shoes. I bought cadet shoes to make a cheap buy. But the leather is bad and the mid and outsole are from PVC. So can make a video on this, please? To avoid making these mistakes. And still buy quality items on a small budget. Thanks in advance.

Reviewbrah is not a teen

[@JaxMerrick]

I'm a flatbed truck driver (28), and I find that Oxford shirts and slacks tend to work really well. Not only can some brands be rather durable, but they clear the common "long sleeves only" rule that many manufacturers have when in the loading areas. There's also the side benefit of being taken more seriously because you get confused for their supervisors.

[@StealthSocky]

I've worn suits for a while, had to stop when I was taking weight lifting as a class, and the suit was just too much hassle to get in and out of quickly. But as an 18 year old, I still love the classy style that suits and the right hat, and overcoat, can give you, especially during the holiday season. Seeing as how I don't really like my generation of people's beliefs or interests, I'm happy to alienate myself from them, as you say, if it means I show some class.

[@Rikki2684]

I think people forget this is the Gentleman's Guide on how to dress your age. Of course the majority of people would stick out quite a bit, and probably negatively, within their social/work groups if this is how they dressed on a daily basis. If you had a labor job and this is how you came and left from work your colleagues would probably chuckle a little bit. This guide isn't telling people how they should dress disregarding all other circumstances. It is telling people how to dress for their age if they want to look like a _Gentleman's Gazette_ . That might be relevant to _you_ a couple of times a year, but this guide isn't just made for _you_ , it's made for everybody

[@robertthorn9560]

I'm in the 65+category, I wish I could wear my suits/sport coats from 20+ years ago but my body changed with age especially my waist line; giving me the opportunity to change my style and clothing according to my age (highlighting comfort) rather than fashion.

[@musclesdefined2115]

Nice! This video was actually realy helpful. Because the topic is very underrated, but important

[@aleynacabuk7352]

as an 18 year old girl this is definitely what ı needed thank you

[@TheClimbingBronyOldColt]

This mindset is a little skewed, since what the older generations wore isn't what the newer generations is going to wear. Hey, now I'm about the same age as knights were, I should put on my armor and walk around in public, I'm dressing my age so there should be no problem. Or a centurion armor, that would be cool to, I think I'm the same age as one. You trying to make a set definition for all generations? There isn't one, people are gonna wear what they wear, based on the time period we're in, and trying to dress like a stereotypical Italian gangster just isn't gonna cut it. You're 20 now, time to throw out all the clothes you bought when you were 19. You're 40, throw out all your clothes, it's time to dress like an oldtimer, nevermind others your age, you should wear the same 'age uniform' as other old people wore before you. Am I gonna get some more mature clothes in the future? Yes! But I'm not gonna dress up like Al Capone..

[@littlepucchini]

TCBOldColt why not dress like Al Capone?

[@jaidynrensburg5954]

As Long as you’re wearing something you enjoy wearing and look good in there isn’t an issue. I disagree with your crowd mentality tho. Just because everyone else is doing something doesn’t mean you should as well.

[@BySixa]

No offence but youre completely wrong with most of these points. You can dress stylishly without dressing like a preppy white boy from the 50s. To recommend baggy chinos and carteroids to under 20s is shocking advice. If your this age try for basics first and build around that. Get color blocking down to a tee with simple colours like dark jeans and white tops, some casual shoes like vans or chuck taylors. This can be an every day look. Neutrals are popping right now and you can get into distressing if you want. Most importantly, fit is everything. H&M, Levis, Nicce, GAP, MNML etc. are all popping rn

[@daydarkness3347]

Dorian Gray yes but there is no argue that slim fit looks a lot better on a not overweight guy than big baggy (too long) cloths

[@theAustriaball]

Sixa i also hate how he says that boat shoes are at a higher level than sneakers. Sneakers are valid shoes and not lowerclass just because teens wear them

[@slashnagy6]

Austriaball I agree. I have Ferragamos, Florsheims, and JM's but I also have Vans, Toms, and Nikes. There is absolutely nothing wrong with sneakers and they should not be perceived as "lazy" or "immature." Style is not what you wear, but how you wear it.

[@Real_MisterSir]

sn3192 Completely agree. The thing is, Raphael doesn't really talk about how to dress like a gentleman, he talks about how to dress in his own personal style - which is not the sole way to appear more like a gentleman (unless you wanna relive the 60'ies). I for instance can't stand most of the products from his Fort Belvedere whateveritis. They don't look old fashioned, they just look old to me, no real style or exquisiteness. The wallets looked outright cheap, would never consider them stylish or expensive. They might fit his personal style, but man oh man how personal that style is. If you want to look like a real gentleman, take a look at Daniel Craig (in his Bond movies or just personal life). He can pull off a casual gentlemanly style regardless of what the occasion is. He can make short sleeve shirts look good, he can pull off a vest, can wear the same watch regardless of the event, and he manages to look mature and refined - while also having that youthful expression and power. A lot of it is of course physique, but also how he blends clothing pieces in a way where he looks stylish and elegant, but always manages to stand out from the crowd in ways you don't notice at first glance. It's not by wearing some suit with a fancy color or material, or pants with a special shape. It's all in the tiniest details where he often breaks the rules, but he does it so effortlessly and in a minimalistic way that most people don't even see it, they just see him stand out without being able to point a finger at exactly what makes him stand out.

[@thecollector5243]

Vans and Chucks - yeah, if you like sweaty stinky feet..

[@WildCatLyfe]

I like how you include Brock from Modest Man as a picture in the under 20 age group when he’s the same age as yourself lol

[@MrZiggler1980]

Great video. My problem with fashion is my shoes line-up. I wear a size 14 I can sometimes get away with size 13's. But going to department stores, it seems like size 12 and under you're covered as far as getting whatever shoe's you want.

[@grimes558]

[@benjaminf.1492]

for all under twentys that arent comfortable with the shoes. I absolutly recommend to get a good pair of simple boots they work for every season except summer and are stylish looking without beeing too outstanding, plus, they are quite comfortable.

[@benjaminf.1492]

also for ur upperbody i would recommend to have some polo-shirts. These are espacially good, if u r more on the skinny side and normally couldnt wear T-shirts, because they are usually tighter on thesleve ends, wich gives the illusion of the shirt "bending" under ur muscles. of course u wont look like arnold schwarzenegger but at least u can wear something with short sleves without people thinking, that u just escaped Ausschwitz.

[@nathanielschwartz425]

So, I’m in my mid-20s right now and I have a part-time job in retail as a Sales Advisor at Office Depot, and when I’m at home I just wear a pair of jeans and a t-shirt, however, when I’m at work I wear dress socks, a white undershirt, a button up dress shirt, a pair of slacks, and a pair of Bruno Marc dress shoes. I also use a brown belt which goes really well with my shoes. Then, before I head out the door (after I’ve brushed my teeth) I use exactly 2 squirts of my Doir Suavage cologne and then comb my hair back with my hair gel. And I learned how to do all of this and found my entire style and morning routine from watching a lot of the Gentleman’s Gazette so thank you!

[@SovereignMoney]

I had an internship over the summer at a company with 800-1000 employees and their culture was that even the executives wore jeans and polos. I wore a suit to an for the first week and it made me really uncomfortable, but after I adjusted, it was much more relaxing knowing I didn't have to impress anyone with my wardrobe. I think more companies are moving this direction and I think its great because opinions are formed off of the quality of work instead of first impressions.

Hi Sven, I have a question for you, and I am sure I'm not alone on this one either. I am an early 20's professional, and at my new job, the dress code is "business casual." I see people around the office in jeans, sneakers, etc. I feel uncomfortable wearing a tie or jacket to the office as it is not the norm, or suit-style pants, as I don't want to stand out or feel like I am uppity among my peers. What can I do to fit in but look professional in an environment where the variance in accepted dress is so wide? I want to look professional and competent, but I don't want to stick out like a sore thumb, or ruffle any feathers, especially as a newer member of the office.

[@iop223]

this is a 4 year old comment and im sure you figured it out already but heres my 2c: if you enjoy tailored clothing, find ways to integrate casual sportswear with your sports jackets and slacks/chinos. look to ivy style for a classic example. the marketing material and lookbooks from saman amel and drake's can give inspiration for more contemporary implentations of this idea.

[@kalebabraham6614]

Dear Mr. Schneider Hello My name is Kaleb Abraham and i have just finished watching the video above. It is very informative and useful to not only young men but older gentlemen as well. While i agree with most of the video I did have a question come up while watching. The question is for my personal use , I am only 24 years old but my outlook has always been that of an old soul. I tend to enjoy looking nice even when it is a very casual social event . I like to wear a shirt and tie with a vest , nice pants and leather shoes for that is my casual attire . I have always hated to wear anything that could be considered as modern casual attire. Would it be better to stay with my current attire model or go with the guide you have placed forward? I thank you for your time and attention for i know you are a busy gentleman and have much to do. Sincerely -- Kaleb E Abraham

These styles are antiquated. It's not the impression I'd want to give unless perhaps I was on my way to a WASP costume party.

Not to be a critic, this does fit in with a particular group of people, but there's no way I'd ever want to fit in amongst those people. All he needs now is an ascot and a monocle to add the finishing touch.

[@marinehakobyan7005]

Gentleman's gazette expanded since the last time i watched one of their videos. I wonder if they will create a branch in the future which will talk about women's outfit as professionally as they do for men's. I have recently changed my style to classic, and some videos helped me choose more fitting clothes for me (length of the trousers, matching up the patterns, the best fabric, etc) but this is as far as it will go, since the topics are about men's clothes. Not to mention dresses, high heels ... I love dresses, but nope, nobody explains dresses properly. They just tell you what's fashionable and that's it.

I am known for wearing combination of odd pants, vest, jacket and I almost never skip the fedora. My favourite outfit (at time of comment) is brown pants, blue sweater vest, and tan suit jacket, white French cuff dress shirt, blue striped ties,, brown dress shoes and of course, the grey fedora. I do get alienated to a degree, but I rock suit and tie almost every other day so people are used to it. Now I get more questions when I wear jeans and a t-shirt.
