分享书目简介:
True Style
从选择一副正确的眼镜到合理地搭配衬衣,领带以及口袋巾,穿衣其实是一门逐渐娴熟的艺术修炼。然而我们中有多少是每天清晨随意抓起衣服就套上的呢?又有多少人会理解选择一双袜子颜色上的微妙细节,或是服装上不同图案花纹的和谐程度 – 甚至于我们选择背后的历史,规则和重要性呢?
在True Style中,专家G. Bruce Boyer为我们日常穿着提供了简明而又不可或缺的入门读本,书中列举了男性衣橱里不可或缺的基本单品,同时指出了其最佳使用环境。作者用一种诙谐潇洒的写作方式,逐一概述了男装的传统与经典,又细数了例如单宁与麻料等方面的材质革新,更涉及了组合图案颜色以及材质的搭配选择。他既能启发读者在适当的场合下使用一件高领毛衣,重申皮鞋与袜子的搭配组合,更强调了穿着中“sprezzatura”的概念 – 一种在了解规则之后再不经意间打破陈规的风格。
Boyer用一种文雅却坚定的方式传授穿着中的规则以及不同物件的知识,为年轻的男性提供建立自己衣柜的指导,分享自己的生活感悟,解释“真正的风格”看起来是怎么样的 – 更重要的是,为什么“真正的风格”看起来不一样。
From choosing the right pair of eyeglasses to properly coordinating a shirt, tie, and pocket square, getting dressed is an art to be mastered. Yet, how many of us just throw on, well, whatever each morning? How many understand the subtleties of selecting the right pair of socks or the most compatible patterns of our various garments—much less the history, imperatives, and importance of our choices?
In True Style, acclaimed fashion expert G. Bruce Boyer provides a crisp, indispensable primer for this daily ritual, cataloguing the essential elements of the male wardrobe and showing how best to employ them. In witty, stylish prose, Boyer breezes through classic items and traditions in menswear, detailing the evolution and best uses of fabrics like denim and linen, accoutrements like neckties and eyeglasses, and principles for combining patterns, colors, and textures. He enlightens readers about acceptable circumstances for donning a turtleneck, declaims the evils of wearing dress shoes without socks, and trumpets the virtues of sprezzatura, the artistry of concealing effort beneath a cloak of nonchalance.
With a gentle yet firm approach to the rules of dressing and an incredible working knowledge of the different items, styles, and principles of menswear, Boyer provides essential wardrobe guidance for the discriminating gentleman, explaining what true style looks like—and why.

媒体书评:
“Where fashion was oncedictated from the top down, it now rises from the street up. But as G. BruceBoyer shows in True Style, islands of elegance still survive…. [A]cheerful attempt to define the underlying principles for dressing well, whileat the same time providing some of the history behind what we wear.”
— Wall Street Journal
“Bruce Boyer is the RobertCaro of the cufflink, the Boswell of the bow tie. Any man wondering why hewears what he does—or how to wear it better—should avail himself of thisindispensable volume.”
—Jay Fielden, editor in chief, Town & Country
“True Style combines historical insight, an elegantturn of phrase and sartorial authority, all enhanced with timelessillustrations. It is the perfect complement to the connoisseur’s wardrobe andbook shelf.”
—Christopher Breward, University of Edinburgh
