The Big Men's Fashion Trend of 2022? Dressing Like a Tween

[mahatmakanejeeves]

Darn. Here's another trend I missed. That's the nth one in a row, where n is getting to be a rather large integer.

Adult men like Justin Bieber and Pete Davidson are dressing like children. Why the “kidcore” trend has taken off.

The Big Men’s Fashion Trend of 2022? Dressing Like a Tween
‘Kidcore’—a fad that sees adult men conjure their tweenage years with expressive, if juvenile, outfits—has thrived during the pandemic. Why the style is

1. Arrested Development much?

trying to prove that some adult men would prefer to be seen and treated as toddlers?

The dropped pants trend always reminded me of a toddler walking around with a loaded diaper.


effin weird.

3. Men's fashion could use an uplift. Let it rip, my dudes

5. As a native Floridian

I wear shorts, t-shirts and flip flops most of the time. If it's "cold" out I might wear a long-sleeve t-shirt. 99% of my t-shirts are band shirts I get at shows.

But I would genuinely welcome a return to gentlemen wearing suits and ties and hats everywhere. I love the look. And I do have a couple suits but I'd go down to Men's Wearhouse and grab a coupe more. (I like suits but I'm not tryna be a Brooks brother).

I always dress formally-ish on cruises on the elegant nights. (Actually in my kilt and Prince Charlie jacket). I like getting dressed up and it always amuses me watching older movies and TV shows and seeing men wearing suits to go bowling or a baseball game lol.

I know I could do it without anyone else doing it but it seems like less fun.

7. An improvement over the ludicrously tiny suits, IMO.
