FASHION MODEL SECRETS The Playboys Style Guide Version 1.2 (Fashion Model Secrets) (z-lib.org)

advertisement
This guide will be generally budget friendly apart from a few high end, niche
items that I personally believe every guy should have. You’ll be able to build
an entirely new wardrobe complete with items for every season and every
situation. The most expensive items will be very niche
- like watches, jewelry, and wallets.
Depending on your budget, you’ll be able to completely revamp your
wardrobe with fundamental and versatile pieces for about
$2000-$3000 depending on where you shop.
I know $2,000-$3,000 can be a lot for some people, but you’ll be able to do the
basic capsule wardrobe utilized for everyday fits, going out, and traveling the
world can be done for $500-$800 if you shop at the stores below.
Thank you again for purchasing this guide. I’m incredibly confident that you’ll
love the ideas inside and it’ll change your style and life for the better.
Your personal style is something you’re going to have to develop over time,
because it takes time to find what you like, and which archetype you’d like to
emulate. I usually tailor my style to these two - Bad Boy & Old Money. These
are the two that I recommend you guys emulate as well.
As always, if you need help or advice on putting together these looks message me in the Telegram Group.
Old money is one of my favorite
archetypes, and works incredibly
well in colder cities due to layering,
but also is my favorite look for the
summer too.
Summer styles include - 4 buttons
open on your linen shirt to show
your gains plus shorter swim shorts,
designer sunglasses and loafers is an
elite look for the summer.
Spring/Fall/Winter styles includeShawl collar cardigan sweaters
layered over a scoop neck T shirt,
fitted linen pants (suit pants) chinos,
or jeans coupled with Chelsea boots
or loafers. Heavy, fitted sweaters or
cashmere sweaters are a staple as
well.
If you want style inspiration, Iman
Gadzhi on instagram does it
incredibly well with high end
pieces, but you can get the same
clothes at Zara, ASOS and H&M
respectively.
One of my favorite looks to go out at night.
Fitted ripped jeans, open shirts, fitted T shirts
that show off your physique, Chelsea boots,
and a leather jacket. When you’re dressed like
this, idiot low level guys will make comments
at you, because truthfully, it’s very hard to pull
this look off without looking like a try hard.
Since you all have purchased this guide, you
won’t look like a try hard. Make sure
everything fits your physique and body well,
and you can combine this with jewelry like
watches, bracelets and rings to take it to the
next level.
This is a look you’ll see me and Andrew Tate
do really well, and is a look I’ve been pulling
off effortlessly since I was 18.
This look works incredibly well in the
nightclub and strip club (when trying to get
with strippers for free), and makes you stand
out amongst the sea of average guys
everywhere in the world. It screams sex
appeal.
This is the look you’ll see under the “T-Shirts”
section of this guide, minus the jackets.
JEANS
I will only recommend buying jeans at Zara or H&M. I’m going to explain
the logic here.
Make sure you’re getting tapered leg jeans, because tapered legs create the
coveted “X” frame shape, and just overall compliment your physique, outfits,
and just look better.
Zara is better for trends, H&M is better for Basics.
You’ll want 3 pairs of different color wash, ripped tapered jeans, shown above.
Light, Medium, and Black.
All 3 of these above I personally own.
You can get a pair for about $30-$50 in both stores.
1. Black Skinny/Tapered - No rips, completely plain, normal jeans (H&M)
2. Black Skinny/Tapered - Ripped (Zara)
3. Light Wash Skinny/Tapered - Ripped (Zara)
4. Medium Wash Skinny/Tapered - Ripped (Zara)
5. OPTIONAL - White Ripped Jeans (Zara)
The reason for this is that there are places where you’ll want to wear black
jeans, which are the most versatile pair of jeans you’ll own, but don’t want to
have rips or anything in them.
CHINOS
Buy Chinos (Slacks) at Zara or UniQlo. All should be slim fit or tapered legs.
Useful for work situations or going out to places where you don’t want to wear
jeans.
Colors:
• Black
• Navy Blue
• Olive Green
• White (Optional)
SUITS
I’m unsure about you European guys, but for Americans, get your suits at
SuitSupply. An off the rack, perfectly tailored suit will run you about
$1000. Find an equivalent store and use a tailor.
You should have 2-4 suits eventually, but start off with a dark Navy Blue suit.
Get these in this order:
• Navy Blue
• Dark Charcoal Gray
• Navy Blue with Pinstripes
• Charcoal with Pinstripes
The solid colors can be worn to funerals, weddings, business meetings,
interviews, and high end events where you’re required to dress up.
Examples:
Don’t get your shirts there - get your shirts from Charles Tyrwhitt or Zara, then
get them tailored ASAP if they’re not a perfect fit.
I generally wear suits with no tie and 2-3 buttons open depending on where
I’m going. The third picture is an example of me in a Tailored Navy suit,
complimenting it with a gold watch and pocket square.
You’ll want 3-4 Pocket squares for your suits - Red, White, Blue and Yellow to
combine with ties.
A tailored White, Blue and Black shirt is all you’ll need. Keep in mind that there
should be just enough slack on the shirt for you to be able to tuck it in as a
dress shirt with a suit, or wear it untucked for when you go out at night to the
club or go on a casual date.
Get these at either Zara or Charles Tyrwitt
For some reason I feel like I should add a note here on socks. Just get white
and black athletic socks and a few pairs of black dress socks. Also grab some
no shows for loafers and yeezys/sneakers that you’ll wear with
shorts/sweatpants if you’re trying to pull off the ankle look.
WATCHES
I want to talk about watches very quickly. As a man, you’ve got a million
options, but we’re going to narrow it down to 3.
These come down to 2 things - Style and Versatility. Also, all of these watches
will be waterproof up to 20-30 meters, which means you can wear them in
the pool, hot tub, day club, boats, without worrying about water getting in
them.
Also, make sure you take your watches to a jeweler so they can size them for
you.
Gold & Steel Dive watches
Gold & Steel Rubber Banded Sport/Dive watches
BRANDS I RECOMMEND FROM LEAST TO MOST EXPENSIVE
I personally wear Invicta and Citizen most of the time. I own a 36mm Datejust
that was given to me as a gift, but when you’re traveling the world and in
different cities, you don’t want to wear high end jewelry or watches in a
potentially dangerous area or situation.
If you’re in a place that’s completely safe, absolutely wear your nice stuff.
You’ll want 3-4 beginner watches. These are going to run you anywhere from
$200-$1000 for the whole set depending on which ones you want. Get an
invicta dive watch with a black face, because it looks like the Black Face
Submariner, and also is usually mistaken for a Breitling/Rolex due to the logo.
Most girls and people in general won’t know the difference.
1. Black Face Steel Invicta Pro Diver $50-$80
2. Solid Gold Invicta Pro Diver $80
3. Citizen Promaster Green Face $500 / Invicta Pro Diver Green Face
4. $80
5. Rose Gold Rubber Banded Bulova $550
I’m not going to cover the high end brands, but if you’ve got the money to
spend I highly recommend trying to get a Rolex, AP, or Patek as soon as
possible from the retail store. They’re incredible investments and stores of
value due to the basic economics of supply and demand.
This is the full beginner set I would recommend. You’ve got versatility for every
different occasion.
WALLETS
Go to Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Goyard, or Saint Laurent and get a wallet that you
like.
Just look online for one’s that you might like or go in store the next time you
go shopping.
High end wallets will last for years, and you’ll feel good every time you pull it
out. Having a designer wallet is a subtle flex when you’re paying for dates or
shopping. You’ll have it literally years, and it’s a great way to invest $300-$400
into your style.
Make sure it’s a Bi Fold (not tri-fold), and NEVER keep all of your credit and
debit cards on you just in case you lose it or it gets stolen.
HOODIES &
SWEATERS
SWEATERS
For sweaters, we’ve got 6 options.
I’m not covering hoodies here - just shop at H&M or Zara and get ones that
you like. Civil Regime and Killcrew are also great for graphic hoodies that make
statement pieces.
NOTE: DO NOT PUT THESE IN THE DRYER BECAUSE THEY’LL SHRINK
The 4 options for sweaters are as follows:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
Cashmere Mock Neck
Fitted Cashmere Crew Neck
Heavy Knit, Baggy Crew Neck
Fitted Knit Crew Neck
Shawl Collar Cardigan
Knit Turtleneck
Cashmere Mock Necks are incredible for the
Fall and Winter. Grab these from ASOS under
“Muscle Fit Turtle Neck.” I’m wearing one from
ASOS in the picture with me in all black.
Fitted Cashmere Crew Necks can also be found at ASOS.
Heavy Knit Baggy Crew Necks can be found at H&M, LL Bean, and other higher
end retailers like Banana Republic.
Fitted Knit Crew Neck - Go to H&M or Zara, I highly recommend these and
they hold up for years. I’ve had a few that have lasted since I was 19 and still
wear them to this day. Again - make sure you don’t put these in the dryer.
Hang dry only.
Wear these with fitted jeans and boots to create a bad boy or old money
aesthetic in the Spring, Fall and Winter.
This is something I’ll highly recommend. UNIQLO Men’s Fleece. One of the
most comfortable jackets I’ve ever worn, and they’re
$20-$30. I buy a few every year and have a collection of them, and wear them
literally every day while workin
You can wear these out too, and I highly recommend getting one in Black.
JEWELRY
Depending on your own personal
style or “Look” you want to
achieve,
jewelry
besides
watches can elevate the vibe.
If you’re going for a rugged or
“Rakish”
vibe,
rings
and
gold/silver bracelets can take
you to the next level.
Here’s a great example of actor
Jacob Elordi pulling off rings and
some necklaces.
You can also rock stuff like cuban
link bracelets and necklaces, but
you 100% have to have a certain
look to pull those off without
looking like a dork.
You can find cheap jewelry at
Zara or H&M for the most part.
T SHIRTS
T shirts are a staple in every man’s wardrobe. You’re going to want multiples
of each one you like. My favorite brand personally is a brand called “No
Boundaries” - which is literally sold at Walmart for $8-$12 per shirt.
I’ve had multiples of these shirts for about two years. I’m not even sure if
they’re sold anywhere anymore. But, the cut was a scoop neck t-shirt with a
longer, curved hem. I wear a medium, and they fit my arms perfectly when
the sleeves are rolled, along with accentuating the upper chest, traps,
shoulders, and neck due to the scoop.
If you want plain, regular cut slim fit T Shirts, go to UniQlo. They’re about
$10 per shirt and they look and fit great. You can also pick up some plain,
scoop-ish neck T shirts at Zara, but be careful because they’ll shrink in size
when you dry them.
I wouldn’t recommend shopping at H&M for T-shirts due to the fact that the
cut and quality is absolutely terrible.
Obviously, T Shirts can be worn with pretty much anything from Athletic
Shorts, Swim Trunks, Jeans, Chinos, Linen Pants, etc.
A personal favorite of mine is this particular look: Scoop Neck T Shirt, Fitted
Ripped Jeans, Chelsea Boots, and a watch.
SHOES
You’re going to be creating a wardrobe that works with every single piece of
clothing you have. Shoes are no exception.
You’ll want Loafers, Chelsea Boots, Sneakers, and a pair of Dress shoes.
Make sure you’ve got some high quality flip flops as well for when you hit the
beach. Dockers or Havianas work for these. Don’t overcomplicate it.
My personal favorite shoe to wear. I’ve been wearing these religiously for the
past 6 years since I was 18.
You’ll want to buy a Black Leather Pair from Aldo or Saint Laurent (Yes, the one
with the heels) and a Suede Pair - this can either be dark brown or light tan. I
personally like the light tan version because it looks more casual. Get these
with a “Gum” sole. These are way more casual then the dressy leather version
with the wooden sole, and also give you traction in case you get in a fight
when you’re in the club. They’ll get dirty as well so make sure you grab sone
waterproof spray.
A standard upgrade progression for Chelsea’s would look like this
ASOS -> ALDO -> SAINT LAURENT (I would personally go straight to Aldo,
spend the money and get the mid tier quality.) $50, $150, $1000
Styling Options - Everything in this guide.
Suits, T Shirts, Dress Shirts, Jeans, Linen Pants, etc. Just don’t wear leather
Chelsea boots with sweatpants. If you want to pull this off, wear your brown
suede boots with the gum sole with sweats or joggers and you’ll still look
fresh.
SNEAKERS
Everyone’s got their own personal taste when it comes to sneakers. For me, I
personally think Jordan’s look tacky and too try hard. A basic lineup for
sneakers would be this:
I’m going to include options for short guys as well - like Alexander McQueen
and Versace. These will give you 2-3 inches of extra height, and only helps you
if you’re short and want to look taller. Don’t use those weird inserts, just get
designer shoes.
1.
- This is the best and most comfortable sneaker I’ve
ever owned. If you don’t have a pair for the gym or just general everyday
life, get a pair as soon as possible. They’re 200% worth the money and
perfect for traveling, going to the gym, airport, walking, errands, etc, and
they look great.
2.
- Great gym shoe and also awesome
to wear with light wash and black jeans. I’ve had international models
compliment me on them because they’ve got a “retro” look and when
paired with an all black fit, or light wash jeans and a fitted T, you’ll
automatically look like a G. Also, they’re $100.
3.
- Great for hiking, running, gym,
travel, a cheaper alternative to the Yeezy’s. I have a pair of NMD’s I got for
$85 and took them around the world and they held up great. Still use them
as a beater shoe. If you’re looking for a sneaker that’s affordable, durable
and comfy, get a pair of these.
4. ALEXANDER MCQUEEN LOW TOPS (White or White with black tab on the
back) - A very good option to increase your height. I’m 6’4 so I don’t
genuinely need these but I’d get a pair if you’re under 5’10. Also, girls who
know fashion will enjoy the fact that you know who Alexander McQueen
is.
5.
- Another alternative to the
McQueen’s - grab these if you’re under 5’10. They add 2 inches to your
height and they’re also a flex because, well, Versace.
6.
Get a pair of Cream color way or White Van’s if that’s your style. If
you live near the beach, wear shorts, and want to go for the surfer or skater
type of look, rock these. Great casual, beater of a shoe if you want to attain
that type of aesthetic.
Obviously, if we’re traveling we’re going to narrow this down to 1-2 options
because we’ll be taking about 4-6 pairs of shoes in our duffel bag anyway.
Mainly the YEEZY’s and a High-fashion shoe like McQueen/Versace.
Styling Options - Jeans, T Shirt, Linen Pants, Sweatpants, Linen Band Collar
Shirts, Chinos, no suits.
LOAFERS & DRESS SHOES
Standard upgrade progression on a budget looks like this:
Do yourself a favor and get a pair of Gucci Jordaan Loafers, or Gucci 1953
horsebit loafers. The Jordaan is sleeker, and are my personal favorites.
Durable, and have put up with many drunken nights at the club, and even a
Miami street fight.
Go to ASOS, grab a pair of Black Tassel loafers, and use these as a party shoe
during the summer. Can also party in the Gucci’s but definitely be selective on
where you wear them. One of the biggest mistakes I made was going to a
Mafia run club in Croatia where it was a giant rave, and got glass in the sole,
and countless drinks spilled with people stepping on them in the crowd.
They’re durable, and also are an incredible choice that Paris perfectly with your
Navy Blue and Charcoal Suits you procured.
Remember, NO SOCKS WITH LOAFERS, unless wearing a suit. I wear suits with
loafers and no socks during the summer.
You can also grab a pair of Suede loafers that have rubber grip on the soles,
they’re fire during the summer and also hold up pretty well in combat in the
event of you and your friend getting jumped by 3 hooligans in a back alley in
Italy.
Can literally style these with suits, jeans, sweatpants (suede loafers), and
everything else. Try these combos out and see what you like.
I’ll recommend these two:
1. Black Tassel Loafers (ASOS) - $50
2. Gucci Jordaan Loafers - $800
But, I personally recommend traveling with a pair or two of loafers. You’ll look
great wherever you go and girls compliment them as well especially when
they’re at your table in VIP.
For regular dress shoes, just grab a pair from Cole Haan or Gucci and put Nike
inserts in them so they’re more comfortable. Do this with any shoe that isn’t
comfortable or hard to walk in.
THE TRAVEL WARDROBE
It’s important to obviously know where you’re going and how long you’ll be
staying. If you’re like me - I book one way tickets everywhere and never know
how long I’m staying, so I’ll keep this versatile. This principle is incredibly
important.
If you’re going somewhere extremely cold during the winter, wear a parka for
the plane ride.
1. You should be able to fit everything in ONE CARRY ON DUFFLE BAG
2. Bring the basics, and buy gear when you get there. I learned this lesson
and ended up buying a suitcase, but this is important. If you buy new stuff,
just grab a suitcase on your way there. The last thing you want to do is
pack a carry-on and a suitcase and buy even MORE stuff.
3. Buy more Underwear and Socks after the first 2 weeks.
Here’s how mine looked over the summer when I spent 2 months bouncing
around Europe staying in 5 star hotels and Villas: Remember, this is all
ROLLED UP inside of your carry on.
This list will be denoted by additions (what I bought, annoyed with a plus
sign) and stuff I threw away and lost, (minus sign). Everything ended up
easily fitting in a carry on + a suitcase at the end of my trip.

We’ve got 3 pairs of jeans, 5 Pairs of shoes, 8 shirts to rotate depending on
what you’re doing at night, 3 T Shirts for the day, 4 Pairs of Swim trunks, 2 pairs
of Gym/Athletic/Casual Shorts, 3 pieces of outerwear in case you’re cold, and
2 watches, 3 sunglasses, and a hat. Incredibly simple. Remember, you’re
staying a month and need options for everything. You can always downsize
the amount of shirts you’re bringing if you want, but I like having options and
getting into something fresh depending on if I’m going to dinner, the club, day
club, lunch, etc. Especially in a place like Mexico or Miami where it’s incredibly
hot and you’re sweating through your shirt and hitting the gym hard 24/7.
You might be asking, where are the regular shorts?
And the answer to your question is this - you wear swim trunks as shorts with
flip flops, loafers, and cuban / dress / linen / or T shirts. Absolute drip and it’ll
make you stand out like no one else (unless they’ve bought this course).
Statement pieces are an incredible way to stand out from others with your
everyday wardrobe. These can fall into a lot of categories - watches, jackets,
shoes, shirts, pants, etc.
These are typically rare pieces of clothing you’ll find that are somewhat over
the top or niche.
I have a fuzzy white jacket from Zara that you all have seen. This is an example
of a statement piece and will be shown below.
I tend to choose jackets as statement pieces because you’re able to take them
off if you enter an environment where they can be a little too much. Make sure
you keep this in mind.
Your statement pieces should be adjusted to where you live and where you’re
going. If you’re in Los Angeles for example, people tend to wear more over the
top, graphic clothes when they go out, and the style might be baggy on top
and fitted on the bottom.
If you’re in New York for fashion week, most people are going to be wearing
all black with jewelry.
If you’re going to a business meeting in London - you’re not wearing a giant
white jacket that says “Savage” on it. You’ll wear a suit and a nice watch.
Remember that statement pieces also can be things like Leather or Shearling
Jackets as well. They don’t need to be something as ridiculous as my Savage
jacket, but they do need to stand out.
The goal of wearing Statement Pieces is making an entrance where you’re
going.
I was at a high end bar in LA with Hassan (@MrOverpaid on Twitter), wearing
my Savage jacket. A pretty girl came up and complimented me on it while
walking to the bar, and we spoke for a few minutes and she invited us to her
table with her friends.
The next night, I let Hassan wear the jacket and wore my beige Shearling
Jacket to one of the most exclusive restaurants in LA, Delilah. I had a night
planned for us, so after Delilah we bounced to another exclusive spot, “The
Nice Guy,” which is owned by the same people. As we sat there having drinks
and some light appetizers after dinner, we ran into Tana Mongeau, Pia Mia,
and some of the other “famous LA influencer girls.”
We ended up talking with Tana & her friends for 5 minutes. She complimented
us on our style and ended up taking Hassan’s phone number.
“I like your Jacket - you’re hot. Give me your number.” Is what she said towards
the end of the conversation.
We hit the club and talked with some other girls, took their Instagram and had
an awesome night. All facilitated by the way we looked, the stuff we were
wearing combined with our confidence.
This is the entire point of statement pieces, to facilitate conversations with
beautiful women and stand out from the dorks who’re all dressed the same
with no substance.
