    Okay, as someone who's trying to create his own style, I've never come across someone making videos like these for men. I honestly couldn't thank you enough for including men in these videos. Especially showing chic style for men. Men's fashion has been the exact same for way too long. And I always wanted to know how to dress differently while still wearing basics. THANK YOUU!

    Could you do about the tv show Sucession? Surprisenly, even through its a show, the stylist went off and helped on the narrative.
    The daughter gets the most fashionable, going through a transformation from a unplanned look with tangled hair trying to prove she doesnt need legacy and is a background worker of politicians to the Old Money daughter heir with brands and short hair and even confidence of her bodytype. The palette changes too
    The chosen favourite son, its the opposite. He isnt vain but has the look polish. Then season 2 he simply reuses the same clothes, unkept hair and beard. He goes from lighter and elegant tones to gray and chosen randomly looks.
    The other two sons are pretty distant and without personality, even in their clothing and colours like they are figurants. The youngest uses brands and suits all the time but it doesnt have power in the look or himself. The oldest halfbrother dresses unfitting in all episodes

    That's the irony of it. Bateman spends a lot for his clothes, skin care, even his business card. But he never really stands out. He is always mistaken for someone else. It says a lot about capitalism. We live in such a hedonistic society that asks you to buy stuff you do not really need and in the process you lose your individuality/

Armani is one of absolute favorite brands and I love how heavily it influenced the movie. As a man transitioning to his professional part of his life it’s refreshing watching a men’s fashion analysis video. I would absolutely love it if you could do Daniel Craig’s James Bond movies!

    I think that unfortunately Patrick is never trying to be something but he is constantly nothing
    Style and life is like a pyramid in my opinion and the background often help to establish what is a men
    Patrick is weirdly not narcissist in fact he reflect everybody in the same time
    I personally dress in suit I actually do wearing leather shiny gloves and all those things but only to be different of other because in my opinion I deserve it and I know that only me make myself happy by treating myself good and why I’m saying this it pop culture now using Patrick image as sigma like the perfect men that his only viewing himself when he is not actually not at all that he is strong and he is the natural predator to other human but he is just weakness because in the end he get defeated by himself every day
    But Patrick is kinda lost in his head he don’t know who he really his he don’t know why he doing things geez I’m not even sure he have the competence to work where he work I think that having his background would be complementary for the movie because we just learn nothing about him he is nothing and he add nothing even his action have possibly never happen
    He exist without existing that is a ultra complex way to mean nothing the total void
    I say that Patrick Bateman have never existed and in fact the movie is made in a way so the viewers become the psycho in the end nothing happened or did it ?
    Plus if you observe carefully he take a lot of drugs and he alway surrounded by people who do maybe that is why he wearing sunglasses inside to cover his eyes
