Many assert that style goes in phases, with daywear or office wear being relegated over time to semi-formal wear, and semi-formal to formal. Tails, for example, have fallen through all three stages, and the lounge suit has gone from casual wear to smart office wear today…

If our current phase began in the 1930s, how long do you think it will be before it ends? Before the suit replaces the dinner jacket and ‘smart casual’ replaces the suit?

  3. I think age determines some answers. When I was younger I liked fashion. Now I am older, I am trying to transcend fashion and it is more about style.
