This week on Wisdom from the Wardrobe, we’re kicking things off with a peek at next year’s Met Gala theme, "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style." With roots in Monica L. Miller’s Slaves to Fashion, this exhibit promises to celebrate Black dandyism with a nod to history, style, and identity. But that’s just the opening act!

From there, we plunge into Fall/Winter 2024 menswear, where classic pieces get a modern remix. Think statement coats that mean business with a little maximalist flair, ties making a (modest) comeback, and denim on denim reimagined in silhouettes that scream "chic rebel." And for all the PNW vest loyalists, time to meet your new favorite: the sophisticated gilet. This season is balancing sophistication with comfort, earthy ‘70s vibes with bold fabrics, and relaxed suits that redefine tailored ease. So, gentlemen, brace yourselves – this episode’s all about stepping up your fall game with a side of flair!
