I've been noting lately that argyle patterns are becoming popular again. I wore a lot of argyle in the 80s, but it's not something I would wear now, partly because I don't wear sweaters at all anymore (I get too hot), but mainly I don't think that style goes well at all with a shaved head. I didn't consciously change my style of dress when I started shaving my head, but I think I may have made some subtle changes without realizing it. Did any of you start dressing differently after going sly?
-
Dress the same ( always a fashion plate) ...not . Hate argyle !!
-
No argyle or sweaters here, either. For me, going sly brought me more in line with the way I was already dressing (jeans, boots, t-shirts most of the time) better than when I sported a bit of hair.
-
Absolutely. I bumped my wardrobe up a notch since going sly. I routinely get complimented on my attire at the office and elsewhere.

Oh, and yes, I have a red and grey argyle sleeveless sweater.

I haven't changed how I dress, it looks better in my opinion w/ a shaved rather than a "Harry Toiletseat" look. Argyle--that's a strange trip to the past, because my father's sister was a devoted knitter- and her sons, my bald cousins--always had "homemade" socks, argles. Now of course I realise those were priceless in the sense that only the richest of the rich have hand knitted socks. But then, as a young smart a$$ed kid, I felt sorry for them not having "store bought socks"! An argyle sleeveless sweater and a camel hair sport coat here where I live are considered a very fashionable "winter" statement. Hand knit, mind you well hand knit, is always good. Machine made, synthetic fiber--not so hot. Bald, it enhances what you wear, it it's clean, well fitted and you feel comfortable wearing it--but that's just this SBG's opinion.

Since shaving I've found myself dressing more formally.
-
My taste has changed over the years, but not specifically after going sly. Never liked argyle patterns.
-
Really the only change for me was that I stopped wearing ball caps to hide my head. I once floored a balding friend(before he went SLY) when he walked into restaurant and I said..."I know why you wear a hat"
I still wear hats sometimes, but they are intentional to augment my outfit...not a cover-up anymore!!!
