u hear that the way a guy dresses can make a woman want the guy even more-true or not.
well for me clothes these days are $$$-i tend to buy some clothes from old navy, wal-mart, zellers, cheap places -hey at least they are new, as i can't afford anything too expensive like name nbrands-tommy, dkny, and even sport brands like nike, puma, fila.... can be quite pricey for me.
I remember is HS everyone wore nice and name brand clothes-except for me and maybe a couple of other kids and now in college still same thing-but maybe alittle bit better. yea embarassing times during my school yrs.
well do women really care about the way a guy dresses, the clothes i have are quite new but nothing name brandish just shirts, short, jeans..... plain stuff of clothes. if the gal i like and most gals i now dress in nice brandish kind of clothes would she date a guy that dressed in "not so in fashion" or the no so brandish clothes. just askin
i think i even had a gal talk to her other friend about ewwww look at the way he dresses he wears red ... something like that .

I think clothes pay an important part in how a woman views a man. First we all know what the modern womans wants from a man (ambition, money). Well how we dress represents us, it shows are mood eg. a fiery red top on a woman symbolises sex does it not(as does red lip stick). Well if you dresses scantiy and unimpressive it can also symbolise low ambition, low drive and aloofness also lets not forget a *bum.*
So to the modern woman that what she will perceiving even if you are not like that. So a well dresses man symbolises these things, why do you think all businessman wear suits, i mean come on.
But the deviants to this rule are of course your social groups i.e. the goths, hip hop etc type. But remember to be accepted in those groups you have to dress a certain way.
So remember clothes are not just clothes they are our mood on display.

joe45 you are the man.

Who cares if they care?

If a girl won't go out with you based on the brand of your clothes, she is not worth your time anyways.

Peace.

As far as I can tell, clothes matter more than looks..and by clothes I mean you wear things that aren't stained, dirty etc. and make you look like an invalid.
Wearing attire from Old Navy etc doesn't matter. If a girl is going to judge you based on the name brand of your shirt, she isn't worth your time.

You can some really nice 'hip' clothes at Walmart, that aren't even made in China (imagine that)!. Puritan, and Faded Glory are good shirt brands, have style and best of all are inexpensive.

The shorts there i've found though are much too Salvation Army like, but there are some good fashionable shorts at JCPenny.

Joe45, I know what you're talking about. I went through the same thing in high school and now in college. I personally refuse to buy brand name clothes. I refuse to be a trend follower, I refuse to wear my hat backwards, be an mtv watching robot like everyone else, I don't care what other people think.

Being your own man and not some trend follower will help you find a female that will care about you for who you really are.

I think the fact that you are wearing clean pressed clothes is way more important than the name on the tag.

I'm not a big fan of walmart gear, i get my socks and some boxers there but thats about it.

Target has way nicer clothes if you want to go cheap. The mossimo stuff is pretty cool but its played out, alot of ppl wear that stuff.

I have had the best luck going to the outlet mall and shopping the clearance rack at the claiborne mens outlet store. They have some really nice dressy shirts, that usually are like 70-80 dollar shirts. I got a bunch for 19 bucks a piece.

Here's the bottom line, get your **** professionally cleaned. Any 70 dollar shirt does not belong in your washer. Spend the money on a pro cleaner and your stuff will last longer also and always look good.

I suck at ironing and stuff so I just would rather drop it off at the cleaners.

Get an entertainment book for 50 percent off drycleaning, its cheap.

Yes, clothes do matter. You don't have to dress in expensive name brands though to wear hot stuff. My closet ranges from higher-end name brands such as seven for all mankind to old navy and no-name things..

clothes are important but you can be smart about it.

you can get ben sherman shirts on ebay for $50 or so. i get a lot of shirts at ebay

blue jeans I get at Buckle in the clearance section, but you gotta look cause its hard to find something nice in your size but you can get a good pair of Luckys, regular $90 or so for around $35

You can get decent dress/casual button down shirts as well as some decent slacks at TJMAXX

you just have to look

It has nothing to do with the brand of the clothes, but simply the way they look. I buy cheap clothing, but I still look good in them, and no one has ever said I dress like shyt or anything. Girls do notice what you wear, just like you notice what they wear.
The cheap clothes I buy look just as good as expensive clothes, you just have to stop being a whinning baby and actually look around for sales and stores with good prices on good looking clothes. Also, if you have no sense of style, no matter what you wear, its gonna look like shyt on you. If your not comfortable in what you wear, you will look like shyt. I dont think theres anyone out there inept enough to not figure out what kind of clothes work for them, and where to get them.

actually there are people who don't know what clothes look good on them... or maybe they're conservative and afraid to try them on...

Do u guys think it's a good idea to go shopping for clothes with a girl friend of yours, and then buy clothes based on what she thinks looks good on you?

The right look can be effective

A good style will get attention from gals. Not as much as real good looks, but it wll get you attention, and often get you out of the starting gate, so to speak.

Just work from styles you like (for me it was mainly mod and Victorian), and make it your own.

I put on nice clothes when I'm going to a club or ritzy lounge/bar that has a dress code. Other then that I buy my t-shirts and stuff from Marshalls, Ross or an Outlet Mall. Same name stuff but with signifincatly lower price tags.

Anyway I go to the circle bar at the hardrock hotel or the new center bar at the MGM or where ever and guys always wear nice collared shirts good jeans, suits what have you. My wingmen and myself dance circles around those guys because of our attitude, not our clothing. We may not be as expencively dressed as some of the other guys, but we know what we're doing, and it shows. Girls like guys who know how to operate.

None of my clothes are truly name brand except for some Von Dutch jeans. I always get my clothes at the edgey, funky stores. I constantly get complimented on my clothes and in fact had a promoter come up to me and give me his card since he wanted me to be part of his clientele since he liked my clothes so much. I don't wear anything outlandish, but my entire ensemble always has some edge and I don't look remotely like any of the dudes.

But then again, I also shop on Melrose Avenue down here in LA where you can get some really cool, funky clothes. But you have to be careful and avoid going overboard into the garish GAYBOY look.

But even then, that might be preferable to the clone like look that the majority of guys have. I sarged a girl in line at a club and we were doing some people watching. Almost 75% of the guys had the same clone "uniform." Namely a colored, dress shirt (usually striped with sometimes a small, safe design) and semi-faded jeans. Could have all been from Armani, Gucci, or ****ing K-mart, the end result was the same, they all looked generic.

Here's my 2 cents

If you're really on a tight budget it might be worthwhile investing on a nice pair of shoes rather than clothes. Simply because it's one of the first thing women do check out when they meet you. I tend to get more compliments on my shoes than clothes and people are always asking me where I get them from. Also for the love of god unless you're playing sport or gymming NO RUNNERS PERIOD. There's nothing worse than seeing jeans and runners.

Nevertheless buying clothes that look good shouldn't be difficult. It's all about how well it fits you. You don't want to buy a t-shirt that looks like a dress nor you don't want it to be showing off your beer gut. With your pants you want to be buying jeans/chinos SLIMFIT. Not skinny or baggy unless you want to look like an emo or from the hood. Unless I'm going out my day to day clothing that I wear to Uni/College is just jeans, T-shirt and necklace. No matter how late you are always take a shower and do your hair. Not only you dont look like a hobo more importantly it's hygienic. Another worthwhile invesment that i highly recommend is hitting the gym. Trust me I can guarantee that not only you'll look 50x times better when wearing clothes but naked as well ;)

Clothes only matter if you make them matter. Now with that being said, dressing a certain way can give you access or it can deny you access to certasin people, places, things. However, dress for what makes you feel good and comfortable and puts you in the best frame to approach.
