Mensday: What’s new in men’s fashion? by Michael Heath

What's new in men's fashion? What's in it for them ... and for us? Keep your boyfriend tuned in to Michael Heath's fashion report

What’s new in men’s fashion? What’s in it for them … and for us? Keep your boyfriend tuned in to Michael Heath’s fashion report

Indeed Mr Heath, ‘why pea?’ indeed… Personally I would dearly love to take my boyfriend along to Raoul Men’s Shop for a pair of brown cossack boots. And elephant cord trousers, why is elephant cord so maligned these days? The lack of these things in the world today is why life has become so dull and dreary.

Illustrated by Michael Heath. Scanned by Miss Peelpants from Honey, January 1965

Mensday: A man can’t go wrong in a Tonik suit

1960s, Mensday, menswear, Tonik, Vintage Adverts, Vogue

Scanned from Men in Vogue, November 1966

Never mind a binder full of women, this guy has got one in a cage! Baffling copy as ever from mid-Sixties menswear advertising. I can’t help but love it…

Mensday: Ruff and Tuff

1970s, Mensday, menswear, sunday times magazine, Vintage Adverts

Flagrance? You’re really going down that route? Hmm.

Both scanned from the same copy of The Sunday Times Magazine. I guess ruffled dress shirts were really doing it for the ladies in 1973*.

*They still do it for this lady in 2012, but I reckon you all know me well enough to have guessed that…

Mensday: Cosak Spells Action

1960s, Mensday, menswear, nova magazine, space age, Vintage Adverts

Scanned from Nova, June 1967

Actually I think you’ll find it spells ‘Cosak’, but never mind…

‘Think about COSAK for light relief’, combined with that suspicious looking pump thing they’re holding…? I’m not even going to fall into that dirty mind trap!
