Who IS this guy? 😂😂😂 That killed me! This is soooo good! While the focus was on menswear, I couldn’t help but gasp at Grace in that white dress to jumper poolside look 🤩. Love that the focus was on all the details of menswear in this. Rarely do you see a vid breaking these looks down and you did SUPERB! Adore you and these videos so much!
The Vintage Voyageur thanks so much!! I’m glad you got my Lund Shun 😂! Yes It was difficult to “ignore” the amazing womenswear in this film. Grace Kelly and Celeste Holm are at the top of their style game here.
Never seen this type of content on menswear, come to think of it whenever I think of historical costumes I think of women's wear and the men's costumes are just kinda there 😂 definitely looking forward to more of these
The looks in this film are so sharp! I never noticed the back brim of Louis Armstrong’s Pork Pie, before!! Leave it to Louis to be that snazzy. I truly enjoyed your breakdown of men’s fashion and very much look forward to more. Would you consider doing Singing in the Rain?
Love, love, loved this video! My husband even stopped what he was doing to watch it with me. I’m with you. My husband needs some brown and white spectators.
I enjoyed this so much, it doesn't seem like there's a lot of content on menswear back then. I think the only bit I would have liked added onto your video was seeing a visual of your alternative suggestions for collar for the suits. I could get a sense of what you meant but am not well versed enough to know exactly what look you were talking about. Thanks for making! P.S. What about My Fair Lady?
This was so fun and informative to watch! Bravo Dandy! Love your shout out to the older dandy gent, dressed very anachronistically. Can’t wait to see more!
One of my favorite movies ever. I have been singing "Just dig that scenery floating by..." since I was old enough to speak. Great video - love the breakdown of the men's fashions
Such a great video! I've never seen the film, but I can't help but feel like the morning dress for Uncle Willie was to showcase his sense of style, as well as his sense of formality of the occasion and a touch of oldfashioned values. Or trying to appear as a man of very high social status against others in less formal clothing. I look forward to more Menswear at the Movies!
This is so good! If you're taking suggestions, mine would be Our Man In Havana. Also could be neat and pretty popular to do any of the many versions of The Great Gatsby, maybe analysing what they did right or did well visually (like good colour combinations), but not neccesarily what they got very historically inaccurate (which, ya know, is most of it). Also maybe a few silent film comedy star shorts, like Charles Chaplin, Harold Lloyd, Buster Keaton, and Max Linder, as some of those men both on and off screen were definitely wearing some of the most fashionable styles of the time (Harold Lloyd's jazz suits, for example). Vaudeville chic, because ✨AESTHETICS✨™️ 😅
Great video, LOVED your analysis of these gentlemen's outfits and my favorites are also Uncle Willie's!!!😃👌 And... "Guys and Dolls", "Hello Dolly" and "There's no business like show business" are some to consider!😉
This new series is fantastic! I love classic film and style so this is a joy. I hope you do one of Fred Astaire 's movies in the future, one of the best dressed in my opinion!
Man, that last guy’s outfits are so amazing!!! I’m forgetting the name of the movie right now, but there’s a Frank Sinatra film that takes place on a cruise ship that has some wonderful costumes. If I can remember the title, I’ll drop it!
This was so good! I’m so glad I found you on Instagram. (I think via Pinsent tailoring.) I was born in 1952 and my early sense of fashion was derived from watching older movies. I remember those broad shouldered suits from the ‘50’s and I think men would really feel good about themselves and swagger. My father had one of those hats like Sinatra’s, the dark with the wide white band. Oh, yeah. They were quite the thing. He wore it when going to work downtown with it tilted ever so slightly to the side.
What a fantastic video. Looking forward to the next one. First time I've ever subscribed to something on RUclips, recently started following you on Instagram and just love it.
I really enjoy the concept of this series, both for learning more about vintage menswear and the old movies. One wish though; as someone who doesn't know a lot about suits and who's following in my second language, I am quite reliant on visuals to understand what you are talking about. So more close-ups of the part of the costume you are discussing would be helpful, the same would examples when you are discussing what options they should have gone with. I would also like to know more of the why, like why one sort of collar would be more appropriate than another, or why white buttons on black tuxedos shouldn't be done. But these are just minor changes, as a whole I think this was great.
I've got a picture of my great-great-grandfather that I know next to nothing about, and I now only realized after watching your video... he's dressed like a Dandy! He's got some kind of hat on, but he's wearing it tilted back on his head like the bandmembers are when they're all in the vehicle, and he's got a bowtie on and it looks like he's wearing a tuxedo jacket. Now I'm wondering what he did for a living and what his life looked like and how he and my great-great-grandmother crossed paths! They were never married, and the story goes he was from New York state. Maybe he was a musician of some type? Thank you for your video! I'm having a moment being able to look at the picture of my ancestor with a new eye and noticing things about his clothing and having a moment of connection with him.
That's interesting about the shirt collars with tuxedos, as a UK/US difference :-) (UK should correctly wear a wing collar with white tie, and a fold-down collar with black tie...)
Although it is in black and white, I think a good candidate for Menswear at the Movies, would be Sunset Boulevard with William Holden. He starts out just a poor script writer and then becomes Gloria Swanson's toy boy. She buys him some great clothes. I always love the scene where he's about to buy a camel hair coats and the shop assistant says "as the lady is buying, get the vicunna."
Fantastic breakdown! I've always loved how Dex's outfits seem to barely meet the societal requirements, emphasizing his inappropriateness as Tracy's 'equal' . Especially enjoyed the tidbits about the band and Louis Armstrong. looking forward to more movies getting the treatment! How about 'Robin and the 7 Hoods', and 'Rebecca'?
Someone mentioned "Singing in the rain", so that's my Gene Kelly fix ! How about a bit of Danny Kaye ?! I always loved him, he was incredible, but seemed to be "second banana" as there were so many multi-talented handsome men at that time ! (You could do an entire video on vaudeville, as that and the upstate N.Y. {Catskills} were such training grounds for dancers, singers, etc....)
Dandy, when I try to get notifications it says "this action is turned off for content for children " ?????? Wah ?! I have noticed that on a few other new folks I follow. None of them are for children ?!
What other films should I cover?
The Sound of Music?
Robin and the Seven hoods, because Sammy Davis Jr
Jeeves & Wooster with Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry, back in the days. A series and not a movie, but goodness gracious me, the clothes are spot on
Singin' in the Rain. I've always wanted to know how accurate the costumes were.
Casablanca! the trench coats, the suits, its all too good 😍
I love how you break down the entire look! Please do White Christmas! I would love to hear your thoughts on that.
great looks in that movie, very colourful
It would be cool to see you put gene’s and fred’s wardrobes up side by side to discuss the difference in the types of characters they play!
I feel classy just watching this.
Who IS this guy? 😂😂😂 That killed me!

The MetatronGirl SO TRUE! Louis always look amazing. Thanks for watching. Singing in the Rain will FOR SURE happen 😃
Please do one episode on "The Godfather"!
Love, love, loved this video! My husband even stopped what he was doing to watch it with me. I’m with you. My husband needs some brown and white spectators.
The way you break down outfits and style is so universal!
How about Top Hat or Easter Parade?
OMG you really did just stick him in at the end 😂😂😂 I

That was so enjoyable! I can’t wait to see the next Menswear at the Movies!!
Uncle Willy, man! He's so elegant!👍🏿
Love the in depth analysis. It’s not just the apparel but the meaning behind it.
Great job Mr. Wellington! You made me appreciate this movie on an whole new level.
So excited for this series! I love old movies and look forward to learning more about men’s fashions through film. Capsule wardrobe input is genius
Uncle Willie was definitely killing it!💪🏾💪🏾
This is awesome! So much discussion of women's clothes, we need more classic men's fashion.
Your vocabulary is divine! I love it!
This was so fun and informative to watch! Bravo Dandy! Love your shout out to the older dandy gent, dressed very anachronistically. Can’t wait to see more!
One of my favorite movies ever. I have been singing "Just dig that scenery floating by..." since I was old enough to speak. Great video - love the breakdown of the men's fashions
I didn't know Bing Crosby did movies too. I thought he was just a crooner, and I love his Christmas music. It's the only Christmas music I can handle!
I love the clothes in this movie! The grey gown was my inspiration for my wedding dress☺️
Uncle Willy swag all the way! Thanks, this is a great idea for a series! Really enjoyed it.
I throughly enjoyed this episode!
Such a good film! I haven't seen it in ages, thank you for discussing the men's clothing in such detail. I now must rewatch it immediately!
I loooooove this series, keep it going Dandy! 😍😍💙
So excited for this series. I was raised on these films. Uncle Willie is #goals
I love the capsule breakdown. So helpful! This is a great idea for a series. I look forward to seeing more.
Singing in the rain and
Some like it hot could be interesting with the contrasts they're trying to create ;)
Breakfast at Tiffany's
On the town.
Such a great video!

Your videos are always such a joy to watch!
Great insight...I never knew there was so much to menswear.
This is so good!

“CAN I HAVE THOSE IN MY WARDROBE PLZZZ”😩
This movie is gorgeous!! I watched it some time ago and I'm glad you began the series with it.
So excited for this series!
Fashion in film is a favorite topic of mine. Please do more!
Do Singin’ in the Rain! Or An American in Paris!
This new series is fantastic! I love classic film and style so this is a joy. I hope you do one of Fred Astaire 's movies in the future, one of the best dressed in my opinion!

Please for the love of all that’s holy… do more of these “at the movies”

Loved this!

You got me, on this one

Love it, Sir
I enjoyed this so much!!!!! I would love it if you could do a video on "An American in Paris." ....

This was so much fun! I can't wait to see what other films you'll cover 😊
i'd love to see your take on La Dolce Vita
More of this please! ^_^

Any or all of The Godfather films and also anything with Cary Grant
Dandy, when I try to get notifications it says "this action is turned off for content for children " ?????? Wah ?!
I have noticed that on a few other new folks I follow. None of them are for children ?!
What happen to this series I really enjoyed this?
Can you review white Christmas?
