Striped Shirts

While we here at P.R.A.D.E. don't generally cover fashion outside of sneakers and design t-shirts, this one was too good to pass up.

The Phat Phree has a great rundown of why people that wear striped button downs are soo cool.

If you are from DC, these are the people that go out in Adams Morgan, and then stand in line for 20 minutes to pay cover for the chance to buy an overpriced bottle of Absolut just so they are allowed to sit down in their striped shirts at a tiny table with a plastic "reserved" sign on it.

The author apparently has a real thing against striped-shirt guys (can you blame him?)

  • Yeah - I saw that Collars Up article. Also a good one.

    What I like about the Striped Shirts one is the seething hate that comes out. This guy couldn't be any less subtle if he tried.

    But seeing as it is winter, I've seen more striped shirts than collars popped. When the real spring weather hits, I want someone to write a satire about pastel polos and ribbon belts.

  • Very interesting article. I don't think wearing striped shirts makes you cool or uncool I still think it is the person that determines the fashion style and coolness!
