The guy wearing the door knocker shirt and highest highpants is clearly the coolest. π
Listen I didn't know that men's fashion that was "too flashy" for me even existed and I literally have a seersucker suit (with straw hat)
AND a checkered sports jacket like a retired football coach.
AND bolo ties! One even has a UFO on it.
But if I got one of these outfits tailored down to fit someone 5' tall it would be kinda cute, but it would look like Miley Cyrus... do you see what I mean? The colors I think... and the cuts.
Maybe it'll grow on me. Let me think.
this one goes the hardest. that puritan bib detail of the turtle neck, makes it look like his head was bolted onto his body after they finished feathering that magnificent afro. also, plaid for miles

I have a whole theory of fashion that is based on the idea of dressing like an old man.

I (a skinny, nerdy white kid) wore the plaid polyester bellbottoms with cuffs and the two-tone shoes in the 70s. It was the way.
it reminds me of this infamous Isley Brothers pic from the same era. i need someone else to steal this and #Alt4Me it because am always at a loss for words to describe it, LMAO
i can't remember who had a story about them... maybe it was Richard Pryor? the story was about how they got people fooled, looking like the fruitiest bunch but they were some of the meanest, most hard core mofos who often got into brawls after their concerts if they didn't get paid.

THANK YOU!!!!

Though you may not drive a great big Cadillac
Diamond in the back, sunroof top
Diggin' the scene
With a gangsta lean
Gangsta whitewalls
TV antennas in the back
You may not have a car at all
But remember brothers and sisters
You can still stand tall
Just be thankful for what you've got
Take a little trip, take a little trip
Take a little trip with me
