As always, an enjoyably considered read on considered menswear. I think what you say makes a lot of sense. Years ago, most people did have effectively a uniform for both their work and home lives- for example, everyone wore a hat. This could have been both a good and bad thing, but the obvious downside was less choice, less freedom to express oneself through clothing. Now the problem is navigating one's way through almost unlimited choices of clothing where casual dressing rules all. I think the kind of rules with room for improvisation you talk about is a great way to navigate all this. I do like having some broad rules for myself in what I wear, though I've found occasional improvisation will always be something I'm drawn to that shakes things up in an enjoyable way. Tak!
