FLORAL shirts? Are they COOL?

[Brighton Breezy]

Word on the street (or rather BBC Breakfast Show) is that floral shirts are IN this Summer.

I have a dapper Paul Smith one I like to AIR every now and again.

Anyone else LOVE a floral number or is a flowery print too girly?

You need to be

1. Young
2. Slim
3. A Girl

So no on all all 3 fronts for you Richie I am afraid.

 

[Brighton Breezy]

Im slim...(ish).

 

[Buzzer]

I am a big fan of floral shirts.

They need to be of good quality and the floral pattern understated. Hawaiian shirts are NOT cool.

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

If you say so Richie. Anyway if you like it, wear it and don't give us shit what anyone else thinks. I used to wear a very girly shirt with little flowers to the Pink Coconut in the mid 80's and had outrage successes with the Girls with that so if you are bold it can pay the dividends. I would wear it now but it doesn't fit me anymore

Floral shirts are the way forward this summer Richie

 

[Seagullible]

Indeed.

AVOID the Hawiian look - NOT good

Hawiian shirts make me really sweaty

Hawiian shirts make me really sweaty

But at least the sweat doesn't show through all the orange and purple orchids.

 

[maffew]

For me, floral shirts on men = charity shop

I am slim, but certainly can't satisfy either of the other two criteria without extensive and invasive surgery or use of a time machine. Have one slightly flowery shirt in my wardrobe, will have to dig it out and consider whether it is wearable again...it is pale blue and white, certainly not Hawaiian.

You can't satisfy a girl ?
There are phonelines that can help with that.

 

[Gully]

Extra word added Easy...and yes, I believe there may be, for those who have that particular problem.

I had a brialliant Hawaiian a few years ago, basically it was the PIL "Johnny Lindon" head in diferent coloured prints.
