Men - Do you wear flowery shirts?

[dessiato]

I have some very flowery Hawaiian shirts that I wear on the beach when surfing.

 

[Detroit City]

sometimes but not often....I think they're out of style right now

 

[butterfly child]

i find that if a man owns a flowery shirt, it won't be just one flowery shirt, there will be lots of variations of flowery shirt, and they will kind of be his 'trademark'. oh look here comes ken, wearing a flowery shirt again.

like some men llike to wear hawaiian shirts.

My husband has one flowery shirt. There are no variations, and they are not his trademark. It's a shirt.

My favourite shirt is a flowery number - had it about 7 years now and can only wear it sparingly because it's starting to fall apart. Be gutted when it finally gives up the ghost.
Bought it in the UK the last time I was there. Good clothes in the UK.

 

[fishfinger]

No, I don't like wearing patterned clothes.

 

[brixtonvilla]

I have 2 Liberty floral print shirts - 1 red, with a small, plain floral print and one blue & much more intricate. Not a trademark, but do tend to be worn out on dressy occasions, usually under something plain, 'cause they're a bit overwheming.

 

[bluestreak]

I have, in the past, owned shirts that could be described as subtly "flowery". However, due to my habit of regularly destroying my favourite shirts in the wash, I currently down't own any.

I also own one Hawaiian shirt for those occasions when Hawaiian shirts are necessary. It has flowers on it. And toucans. And neon yellow buttons.

floral patterns are ace.

 

[London_Calling]

Yep, love them. Totally a 70s man, me - late, late 70s, you understand.

Pants to match.

 

[moody]

I have my eye on this.

I wouldn't think about it if it was just a printed design, but I think it looks really cool.

This is one for the summer.

 

[hash tag]

for my sins I have a major make of shirt which is black with big white flowers on it, why I don't know. This weekend I am taking away a purple(?) shirt with lots of very small flowers on it. No problem.

I love it. looks like a nudie suit.

 

[killer b]

need to see the collar though, mind...

 

[skyscraper101]

No

 

[farmerbarleymow]

No - shirts are either boring white (proper work shirts) or checked.

 

[moody]

nudie suit?

what's that then?

I know nudie who make jeans

 

[moody]

No - shirts are either boring white (proper work shirts) or checked.

I wear a shirt for work too. I get most of my shirts for work from charity shops, mostly C Tyrwhitt or Zara's. I work in a fairly busy bar next to the train station.

Sometimes I'll wear a Ralph Lauren or a Paul Smith. My work mates are young and probably wouldn't know half the stuff I'd like to wear but it's too busy and I don't want to ruin nice shirts just for the sake of it.

I like flowery shirts, I like all over designs in general.

There is a danger of looking a bit like Alfie Moon though.

 

[killer b]

He made western suits, most famously for Gram Parsons.

 

[moody]

Gonna make an offer on Friday.

 

[danny la rouge]

No. It isn’t 1989.

 

[moody]

I did actually buy a "flowery" shirt today in fact.

Not very photographic, it's a white number with a flowery, rose design but the detail is also white but raised/ embossed onto the main body of the garment. It's an all over detail, just as I like but not immediately apparent, more subtle than not.

Got it from Sense charity shop for a fiver, wearing it tonight for work.

 

[killer b]

yeah, it's nice but 130 quid is a bit much. fortunately not my size too.

 

[FridgeMagnet]

It's a nice shirt but I wouldn't wear it. I'm quite large and large people wearing full on patterns and pictures gets a bit visually overwhelming IMO - even big designs on t-shirts are often too much.

 

[bellaozzydog]

I would if I could find any that fitted my bastard son of treebeard/orc physique

any that do fit are like tents

i used to buy XXL posh designer shirts off ebay for quids and take them to the local seamstress shop for tailoring

i only own one “work shirt” and that’s carried around in the unlikely event I have to meet up with important office dwelling VIPs

 

[TopCat]

I wish more choice of flowery shirts were available.

 

[wayward bob]

men's offerings seem to be split pretty evenly between hawaii and wetherspoons plates tbf...

neither of which is necessarily a bad thing

many peeps may be more than happy to conjur up this kind of mental image...

 

[MickiQ]

I don't have any flowery shirts but am not bigoted against people who wear them
My son doesn't have any either but I would still accept him even if he did.

 

[moody]

yeah, it's nice but 130 quid is a bit much. fortunately not my size too.

I'm gonna go in at £70 as it's been listed since before xmas. I'm not looking to pay over a 100.

PS, How did you find the price? I didn't mention it.

 

[moody]

I have had this one for a while, don't wear it much as it's a bit special.

I'd love to know what the 'flower' is? I thought it could be an artichoke?






Sorry about the shite picture quality, I will be buying a smartphone with a half decent camera v soon

 

[moody]

I also got this, like 6 quid from a chazza store. it's lined and quite thick outer material too. I think it's indian or asian, just from the shape of it.
