    I am reorganizing my wardrobe *at the moment*, I've heard of TH-cam channels that do polls to find out what their viewers want but this is just a whole new level of channel dedication.
    I believe I speak for most of us fans when I say that the content of The Gentleman's Gazette is a medium against which us men can turn to when we're confused with what belt to choose or even what to wear to a funeral and one that most channels should look up to in terms of production quality, scripting and general knowledge in their field. Thank you.
    I have something called Aspbergers Syndrome which means that I typically find most activities involving the organization or social skills to be of greater difficulty than most individuals. Through content you've produced like 'How to accept a compliment like a gentleman', your guides on 'is it worth it' and a multitude of other items I have been able to upgrade my style and shed that awkward and unprepared personality I used to have.
    I do indeed hope you are having a delightful lockdown period and a great day!
    -Carl

    Before I found this channel I was almost ready to give up on menswear since in the mainstream it seems to be all t shirts and low rise jeans with nothing interesting. I was already interested in vintage and classic styles, so anytime I see a new video it’s very exciting. I recently bought a pair of grey trousers with black pinstripes from the 1930s (my first vintage item!) that I hope to find a way to style with help from your channel :)

    Putting my off-season clothes away has been a game-changer for me. Can't say I agree with you on ironing. I hate it and life is too short to be ironing loads of shirts and trousers. I tend to iron one or two the night before I think I'm going to wear them. I think I would lose the will to live if I had to do them all. I've always thought that if the circumstances were right I would pay someone to do our ironing!

  • @paulcosta941

    I need a bedroom sized walk-in closet. I didn't realize how much my wardrobe has grown in such a relatively short time span, thanks to Gentleman's gazette and other similar channels. I think I may be at the point of considering donating some of my less used garments and shoes as I really don't have enough space for them all. I have a combination of purchased new, used and inherited garments and footwear that have brought me much satisfaction and have entirely changed my personal dress style and my perception of fashion in a positive way. Thank You Sven for your positive influence.

    Wow!! You guys always make a video I didn't think I needed in my life until I watched it. Within the first 4 and a half minutes I already feel more enlightened on how to fix my wardrobe problems. Just recently I separated clothes I never wear. It turns out there were more clothes I don't wear than I do wear. I need to go through my wardrobe like you said and make a list on why I do and don't wear the things in my wardrobe. GENIUS! So simple and obvious, but something I never thought to do. I just moved apartment and still have to put my clothing away, so while I organize them I will be doing following these steps! Thank you

      Sven already has different videos on fit, colors, accessory types, and many others. Sven, Kyle, and Presten have made videos on using style ideas from historical figures. His channel hasn't just consolidated all the videos into one digestible video. If you want a slightly more modern idea of capsule wardrobe ideas look at Real Men Real Style too.

    03:40 I agree. If you buy something pricy that you think will be a great addition, like an overcoat, a MTM/Bespoke suit, or that 150$ tie that seemed too expensive, write down your experience, how you felt that day or that moment. Also write the kind of outfits you believe the items will fit nicely with.

    I honestly think you need a massive wardrobe clear out. Get rid of a lot of those ostentatious vintage coats, waistcoats and v-neck jumpers. These are some of your stylistic weaknesses in my opinion. The cool, simple look you have at 4:56 is what you should be looking for. It makes you look 10 years younger, 10 times fresher and better. If you used this as a template for your wardrobe going forward, you would be doing yourself a huge favour.
