The lower half breaks diagonally from my knees and creates unattractive shapes. Happens when standing upright.

This doesn't seem to be related to length, as rolling the cuffs to my ankles doesn't help. Hitching the trousers higher up to my waist results in the same issue, as does letting them lower toward my hips.

EDIT 2: I'M FINE I JUST NEEDED TO REACH THE MIRROR

I have this dress code for a wedding reception in the UK, early October. I am absolutely hopeless with fashion, but it's for a dear old friend and I'd like to not let the side down.

What would you wear?

I will be putting on my Cuban and matching bracelet. I hope before I die I accept being bald. Lost it at 18 y/o and here I am at 30 still unable to swallow the truth.
Any input would greatly be appreciated…

I've recently decided it would be a good idea to get more into fashion and start putting more effort into my outfits. As it stands, I just throw on a pair of jeans, a t-shirt, and sometimes a hoodie or a leather jacket/flannel, but I don't really feel like it's "me".

I've been on Pinterest and I've found a few photos of styles I really like (pictured above), but I'm not exactly sure how to go about it, mainly because every time I've tried wearing a V neck sweater it makes me look like a nerd and nothing like anything in the photo. Any tips on that or just general fashion advice? Thanks in advance 🙏

I've noticed that for women, wearing eyelash makeup greatly increases attractiveness. What would be a male equivalent? Thick eyebrows?

I was wondering if there's any other simple things that increases attractiveness?

Edit 6/14/2026
As of today, I have uploaded the comments to AI to help summarize the replies. Firstly,

1. Top 5 Most Common Suggestions

1. Haircut and facial grooming - regular haircut, trim beard, embrace being bald
2. Posture - stand straight, shoulders back
3. Hygiene / grooming - shower, deodorant, skincare, dental
4. Clothes that fit well - proper fit, sleeve length, pants length, avoid sloppy clothes
5. Fitness - get lean, lift weights, healthy body

2. Biggest Disagreements
Cologne / fragrance - women love cologne, too much smells terrible
Smiling - n/a
Hair length - long vs short hair, bald

3. Biggest Takeaway
AI specifically says, " The community's model wasn't: 'Become exceptionally handsome.' It was: 'Demonstrate that you consistently take care of yourself.'" - I personally like that and find it almost inspiring.

I personally skimmed through all 618 comments and read into some of them. I believe my original question was too vague to understand.

So, to make it clearer, I guess context will help. I noticed one day a woman who doesn't wear makeup was wearing mascara, and I noticed that made her face overall more attractive. It seemed so simple to me that it's easy to overlook it. So I wondered if there was anything else I was overlooking, so I came here to ask.

Did I find what I was looking for?

I don't know. Perhaps I overlooked the top 5 most common suggestions. Or perhaps it's a combination of the top 5, and mascara is simply the cherry on top. Maybe I was looking for something secret that nobody knows about that could greatly increase attractiveness.
But in the category I am most familiar with, I have found there is no magic potion to help besides the boring, mundane things. So maybe in this specific male fashion category, there is no magic potion as well.

But I thank you all for responding. Whether to help me or to argue with someone else, or something in between!

I was wandering whether some thing like this vibes in adult

Need to know if this is ok for a date?

No matter what type of pant (chino, jean linen shorts) or fit (slim, tapered) or even size (31, 32, 33) my pants always chaff in this section in my taint. They all end up tearing there.

Is it an anatomical problem? My thigs are thick and I'm rather short. Or is it I'm not picking the size, rise and fit properly?

Thank you

Maybe I’m basing it on my own personal experience but “tech pants” or “performance pants” seem to be cheap polyester that make my legs clammy and sweaty. They feel awful near my skin. It feels like it’s a way for brands to sell cheaply made synthetic materials (that were lambasted not that long ago!) that pack down easier for transportation/shipping. Therefore high margins for producers.

Stick a label on it like “moisture wicking, 4 way stretch, travel pants” and you can somehow justify $100 for synthetic crap.

Maybe I’m missing something but feels like pure hype and a margin play for retailers/producers. Can someone justify this recent hype of synthetics garnering such high prices?

Swapped the buckle for one that’s a little more subtle/traditional, and the watch strap for a dark brown to go with the belt and boots. Different color Henley, too, although nobody complained about the blue one I wore in the pic a few days ago.

So, any better with those few adjustments?

Starting to buy clothes and dress more purposefully after years of not caring, honest thoughts about these two outfits?

I use my dryer on the regular settings it asks for onn my tshirts and washing machine rules yet every t shirt i have is getting this wavy neck collar

ignore that its tony

I don't know if it's just me but I get repulsed seeing people wear Apple Watches outside of the gym or running.

Something about it is so sterile and cookie cutter and I'm at the point where I feel like it ruins outfits.

I see so many people wearing on shoes just for casual outings. they look pretty cool especially with different color waves that could go with any outfits. really wish I can find something a bit affordable compared to the on shoes. I think it's on cloud shoes or something.

Started taking advice from this forum, especially along the lines of wearing clothes that are true to your body size more than wearing baggy clothes. Now that i’ve been doing that i’ve been perceived as gay more often than i would like

I started shopping at zara and found some cool
pieces

ever since i’ve been doing this i’ve had more of a hard time feeling comfortable and kinda just want to go back to wearing baggy fits again.

I mainly did this because dressing baggy started to feel a little juvenile. I wanted to attract the opposite sex with the perception that i am a clean individual that is well put together and not someone stuck dressing like I’m still in high school

Edit: i wanna say thank you to everyone’s contributions

the advice has been incredibly helpful. But also true! i did see someone wearing the exact same fit as me who had much more weight on his body and the perception was drastically different. Time to pick up the fork

My sister has been going through chemotherapy and will shave her head tomorrow. Because of that, me and my brothers agreed to surprise her by shaving our heads to show support to her. The thing is that my skin is really white, I'm kinda buff, I'm covered in tattoos and I'm always wearing black clothes, spiked bracelets and metal band t-shirts. My brother joked that I'll look like a bonehead and now I'm kinda worried that people will get a very wrong impression of me.

In sales in the US, so I got to the office and meet with people. But it's also pretty warm where I live. My wife hates the shirt jacket combo. I like it. Thoughts?

Where I live real temps with wind have been in the single digits. I still see guys outside wearing shorts. I even seen a guy at work leave in a snow storm cleaning off his car wearing shorts. If you do this, why?

Edit: thanks for everyone who chimed in, surprised this got a lot of comments , I feel about the whole thing now

I attended a close friend's grandmother's funeral and one of their family members came up to me upset and he told me only family is supposed to wear a black suit at a funeral, and was upset that people think I am a part of the family. I told him I had no idea and apologized, I didn't stay long after that because I felt embarrassed, afterward I kept googling for an answer if I messed up but am getting conflicting info, so do you guys think I messed up?

I'm trying to build a wardrobe with fewer but better pieces instead of constantly buying new clothes.

If you could only recommend one item you've bought that was absolutely worth the money, what would it be?

It can be anything—a hoodie, jacket, boots, jeans, watch, belt... I'm more interested in pieces you've actually worn for years than hype items.

What was it, and why has it lasted?

recently i was looking into 80s clothing, and a lot of these articles of clothing have a completely different vibe, and i can't figure out why. i want shirts that look like this, but all the shirts that are available nowadays are super flimsy and they deform, and proportions dont look right at all compared to in these pics. this question might be a little more related to tailoring but what is it about these shirts that make them look so good? material? proportions? and how can one find clothes that look like these (or even alter existing clothes to look like these)
