Mr. Pinkley: I've called this emergency session to address the two words that are striking fear in the hearts of all businessmen...spring fashion. Last year, rumpled cargo pants and flip-flops redefined men as hip, with-it players in a young, dot-com-driven world......But now the dot-coms are all belly-up. Do our "casual Tuesday" outfits still make us look cool and rich?......Or do we look like broke nasdaq victims who can't afford a suit? Are men supposed to wear suits again? How can we? The suit was declared the symbol of the aging, out-of-it corporate has-been! Suits scream "geezer"! Khakis scream "loser"! Sportcoats scream "positionless wimp"!! It's all wrong!! Men have nothing to wear! Charlene: Do we weep with empathy or cheer "HAH HAH!"? Cathy: Always too many choices in fashion...
This re-run is dated.My 20 something son and his friends are into wearing suits or at least sports coats. I think the guys discovered a well dressed man is a chick magnet.
