Author and Coach Florian S. Küblbeck writes since 2009 in style magazine a regular column on "foundations of a sustainable man's wardrobe." Since October 2010, he also looks after the lead editorial of the magazine. In an interview with the gentleman's blog he talks about his passion for man's wardrobe, the typical German style and the right outfit for a wedding.
Dear Mr. Küblbeck where actually comes your passion for menswear?
Florian S. Küblbeck: I am interested since my early youth for fashion and clothing. The specific interest in the male wardrobe, so all that is not designed for disposal after one season, then developed over time from it. However, I want to point out that man's wardrobe has to do with fashion only at the edge, namely there where influence each other and fueling fashion and clothing. A certain fashion for me is no basis for a wardrobe.
How important and how unimportant it may or should a man really be what other people think about his clothes and his style?
Florian S. Küblbeck: An interesting question to which you certainly can be no general answer. I would rather prefer to "act on-other-" from the side of the "put-to-Other" instead of describing her. For me, good style is generally an extension of your own mind to the outside. This applies in particular also for the wardrobe. Who manages the feat to implement this extension fashionable outward acts on its environment necessarily coherent than someone who dresses up almost along the lines of "How I want to look today?". Can help many to overcome the stigma of vanity, with which one often finds itself confronted as well-dressed man to approach in this way to your own wardrobe. Of course it should not be us no matter how we dress style affects others, finally sees our over most of his interlocutor in clothing. But neither should we be no matter how we act in character to others. And so we come full circle to my thesis: the impact on others is important, but your own dress is only part of this effect.
In fashion, there is the British or Italian style. Is there also a typical German style, and if so, what do you mean?
Florian S. Küblbeck: The cynical answer would be sandals, white sport socks, Bermuda shorts and a shirt armpit. Slightly less cliched one might say, the German style is characterized by strong rule thinking, but not on this English, object-oriented and ancestry manner. For us it's more about situational correctness, whether imagined or real. An Austrian cloth merchant recently said to me once: "The Germans have actually always afraid to dress somehow wrong." Completely wrong, he did not so. I hardly know any countries that are "more literature on the subject Pocket fold properly "produce than ours.
Which brands represent the typical German style?
Florian S. Küblbeck: Everything from classical, popular especially in the 1950s and 1960s and still very large, German Schneider tradition follows. Simple, unobtrusive cuts without unnecessary frills. For most Germans, this image is most likely to be met by Hugo Boss. If the product is to be still actually made in Germany, namely craft lovers as we would wish, you can not get past Regent. Their quality can compete with the great Italian name, without abandoning its own traditional aesthetics.
Are there any style icons that represent the typical German style and represent this?
Florian S. Küblbeck: This is historically certainly easier than at present. I find it interesting, for example, the style of Trigema owner Wolfgang Grupp, where his wardrobe does not correspond to what I would call typical German. Would be much more typically about Horst Tappert as Derrick.
Besides her work for the style magazine They also offer consultations and seminars. How does such a consultation?
Florian S. Küblbeck: That depends entirely on the needs of that to which I advise. There are people who are looking for a little help in the selection, combination or complete their wardrobe. In such cases it is often sufficient to accompany the person in question once for shopping and to develop some strategies for the systematic evaluation and for targeted acquisition of clothes. On the other hand, I will also from time to time asked to be someone in finding a suitable 'tailor, tailor or shirtmaker help. This process is proving to be somewhat more complicated, because not every tailor fit to each client and also does not look like every cut on each carrier well. Quite a few new customers feel overwhelmed or confused because they are suddenly determine every detail even at the tailor. One or the other targeted nudge in a particular stylistic direction, of course, to match the carrier, as it can work wonders and help reduce fear of the unknown. Between the two extremes shown the limits are of course fluent.
And your seminars?
Florian S. Küblbeck: Currently, I think mainly lectures on all sorts of topics related to clothing, style and menswear. In addition, I also offer several hours of seminars, where participants learn how they can create a maximum of diverse wardrobe with minimum purchase and the targeted selection of garments. This Silo is also subject like fit, combination and clothes care.
Summer is just around the corner. How would you be dressed with a budget of up to 500 euros for the summer from head to toe in typical German style?
Florian S. Küblbeck: How would fail the cynical reply, you can surely think now. Then even remain something left from the shopping money. In fact, I would go for this budget but, for example, only a pair of good shoes suitable for summer a medium brown derby , buy from suede and otherwise put clothes from last summer. Buy Better fewer, but the best thing you can afford. How important are good shoes for a successful look, one can not emphasize this enough.
Does that mean you can be dressed well with a lot of money?
Florian S. Küblbeck: Not necessarily, no. Taste can not be bought, which is why aesthetic finesse is certainly important for good performance, as vile money one. A lot of money to spend on a piece of clothing requires, for most of us, however, more confrontation with the product - after all, it is made to last, so its worth the money. I feel cherished and perfectly maintained permanent guests in the closet more useful than cheap seasonal items.
Summer is traditionally the peak season for weddings. What dress code do you recommend for high temperatures for festive weddings?
Florian S. Küblbeck: With a classic wedding no way to Cut or "morning coat" so a dark gray jacket with long coat-tails in the back, striped trousers and light gray or pastel passes, vest . Slightly less formal is the Stresemann, in which the long jacket with a black jacket is replaced.
And in a rather informal wedding?
Florian F. Küblbeck: In that case I would be wearing a dark blue suit made of lightweight wool cloth with a solid color or small-sized woven silk tie and a white shirt. Most concessions to the summer you can in the choice of materials make, so choose open-pored tissue. For all three combinations should be black shoes wear. Of all that is even less formally, I recommend already be seen out of respect for the bride and groom.
