Hosting a BBQ for my coworkers today, this is what I’m wearing. Any tips?

Getting ready for the white party what do you guy think?

Too mid life crisis for a patio? (50yo)

Can I wear this outfit for my vacation to an island? This dress is a little big so I added a belt as a quick solution. How is it guys?

Yea or nay?

These pockets come in handy when I’m collecting the numbers of innumerable counter-culture baddies at Woodstock ‘69

Would it be inappropriate—as an American white guy—to wear a sherwani to my friend’s wedding?

What about it?

I hate traditional western dress clothes for men. Choosing an outfit to wear to a formal/semi-formal wedding is always a struggle for me. I absolutely love the look of sherwani, though! I feel great wearing clothes like this—confident and cool and all the ways that stylish suits are supposedly meant to make you feel. But I’m a normal white guy. My wife thinks it would be tone-deaf and an act of cultural appropriation for me to wear an outfit like this to our friend’s wedding. The dress code for the wedding itself is something like “fashionably formal”… they’re cool people and I’m sure plenty of folks will show up strutting their stuff with a little more flare than you’d expect to see at a run-of-the-mill wedding. I have the utmost respect for Indian culture, and by no means seek to mock anyone. I don’t think of this as a “costume” or anything like that. I just think that westerners get a lot of things wrong, and men’s dress fashion is one of those areas. Sherwani look great, feel great, and are in my honest opinion just a superior look compared to a normal suit. But am I being tone-deaf and insensitive? Or, will I at best give the impression that I’m some dumb wannabe-enlightened tech bro who thinks he’s so evolved that he transcends cultural norms? Am I the a**hole?

Cottage Core love

What about it?

Lol no designer contest, just an OOTD
