Thank you for this post. This really resonates with me. I am a big appreciator of beautiful high quality menswear. If you look at old pictures, people in US universities used to wear suits every day. Nowadays, wearing sweatpants on campuses is ok even for instructors. I think you are doing something really profound by rooting the lack of aesthetics in philosophy, and that is 100% to the point. By the way, it’s a really nice suit! I love chalk-stripe flannels. Want to get one for me too in the future.
There are multitude of forms besides aesthetics that matter, but being a fine gentleman matters surely in most cases. So thumbs up! I liked the word 'sloppy' in the manifesto, I'd use it more often now, especially dealing with pictures in internet that are trying to show famous paintings. Colors? sloppy. Poor Canaletto, he'd have a heart attack seeing what they present as 'Canaletto' paintings nowadays in internet. Does anyone care about true colors any more?

Fashion is what you buy, style is what you do with it. Aim up. Set a new standard!
