"Clothing or style is about seducing yourself; it's about feeling better about yourself...Men do not dress to look handsome or sexy, although that's probably in the back of their minds; they approach the idea of style with fear. They want to know that they don't look like putzes...All the books on men's style lectured like school primers. Style is fun; have a sense of humor Please!...You have to have a sense of humor about fashion, about all of life, otherwise you are doomed."

Hal Rubenstein, New York Observer, 10/02/1995
