Adam Rustman is one of those guys who rightly believes that dress code belongs not only to society or the street, but also to the beach and swimming pool. Before you step foot in a beach bar next time, read his helpful advice and insightful observations first.
Summer is finally in full swing, so it's time to take a look at the culture of beachwear. I'm writing culture on purpose, because even though we, men, often turn to look at sporty gazelles in nice swimsuits, we ourselves often forget that we can also look well-groomed and aesthetic while swimming. Of course, the state of our "beer belly" has the greatest influence on the final effect. Therefore, I appeal to all of us once again not to neglect a healthy lifestyle and here and there instead of "all you can eat" or "all you can drink", instead include "all you can run, swim, lift" and so on.
The second most important thing in order is the choice of swimwear. This time we will skip the various sports options designed for surfing, swimming, burying ourselves in the sand or other beach fun, but we will look at what a fan of classic menswear could wear.
The length is just right.
The ideal length of a swimsuit, in my opinion, is currently about mid-thigh. A classic cut, not too tight, not too loose, and since I assume that most of you are quite conservative, a decent, rather darker color. In short, something very universal and tried and tested. Of course, you can't go wrong with a solid color, but since you probably won't combine a swimsuit with much of anything and therefore won't have a problem matching it, it would definitely be worth trying to find a nice pattern. I was immediately drawn to the navy blue ones with the sailor flags from Alain Delon. The nautical style is timeless in menswear and these seemed classic to me, but still strong enough. I combined them with a linen shirt from the same brand. Linen is a material that is incredibly fashionable again and is ideal for summer.Linen and summer go together
I know, I repeat it in almost every article and, no, I am not paid by the linen lobby. But I discovered linen only two or three seasons ago and I myself do not understand how I could have dealt so little with not only this, but also other materials from which clothes are commonly made. At the same time, I feel that men in our country, like me until recently, have great reserves, so I try to educate myself a little.
Some of you may be wondering why I'm wearing a shirt with my swimsuit? First of all, I don't want to scare you with my orangutan body, but I also think it's not a bad idea to always have something in this spirit with your beach gear. It will come in handy, for example, when you start to get a little sunburned, I don't mean from your fifth beer, but from the sun, or when it gets colder, and especially when you go to a beach restaurant and don't want to spoil the appetite of others there just by wearing a swimsuit.
Don't scare people while eating.
For me personally, for example, it's a bit disgusting to look at all those half-naked people eating. When I see a restaurant in some water park, I panic. Of course, it would be different if everyone had beautifully toned and tanned bodies like in an American movie, but they don't have that, or rather, we don't. My personal opinion is that in this situation it's more tasteful to wear some tops. A T-shirt would probably be better in a water park, but on the beach you'll still be stylish in a shirt.
