Literally had to wear a suit for a presentation in college, that day I knew what it felt like to be famous/millionnaire😂😭

As always.. I loved this. I get so excited from true men’s fashion and prestige style. It exemplifies their values, expertise, their lifestyle and list goes on. There is nothing more exciting then to see a man wearing textured clothing and hats. True elegance.

My father was voted best dressed in school. He had many admirers. Later in life after his military career he would still wear his military dress blues and would often be the center of attention. He would satirically threaten my friends girlfriends if they were ever rude he would wear his Tartan to their wedding and upstage them. Style can bring joy and opportunities just wear them well.

When you dress great, you feel great. Buy three to four different suits. A black, a gray, a blue and any other option you’d like. Then two to three dress shirts, three different ties, dress socks and finally a pair of black and brown dress shoes. Make sure they are fitted, not lose or too tight. You’ll feel like a million bucks! Trust me

Like the song says, “every girl’s crazy about a sharp dressed man.”

I'm literally a dishwasher yet I wear suits when I'm out of work. People always think I'm a lawyer or something

This woman has the beautifulest way of speak I've ever heard

I was blessed with beeing the first to see this video. Absolutely wonderful. Hugo and Sonya remain classic and better dressed than 90 percent of "celebrities" who are trying to reinvent the wheel. Keep going and teach men and women about elegance! Best regards from Croatia!

After watching a lot of your topics on Sartorial Talks I must conclude this: you not only understand the art to explain things like a skilled professional teacher would do (I know, Im a professional teacher 😉). You give just enough detail without losing the main goal of the explanation. You speak in a very pleasurable way, with lively intonation and emotion. You don't read a pre-written text, you tell us your stories. But most of all, I absolutely love your voice! It has a warm and cosy timbre, calms the listener down and opens him up to the content of your story. You're also always a joy to watch. Sonya, I could listen to and watch your vids for days! Keep them coming, please.

Man, Dandy guys are like from another dimension

One of the best coverage of men style. I really appreciate and enjoyed how you tied the inner us and our struggles to reveal and express ourselves to others through style. A few are naturally gifted, however, for many of us it is coaching such yours is how we can find our way. Thank you indeed. This was well presented.

Thanks for the video Sonya. Very informative and interesting. Your delivery and presence are almost hypnotic for me... really enjoyed listening and watching you talking...too bad there aren't videos of you and Hugo coming out more frequently...but the quality of the ones you put out are of the highest I've seen on the internet. Thanks again!

This channel has given me so much insight and I was inspired by the immense passion you radiate in every video. I also have great respect for your efforts to reply to so many comments which demonstrates and strengthens the sense of community. As someone just starting his sartorial journey (and a german on top of it), it greatly encourages me to be warmly invited, independent on "where I am on this personal journey" as Sonya put it in one of the videos. If I may request a topic, it would be pants. It is an important part that often seems to be overlooked. Best regards

Great video. Always look forward to a new episode of Sartorial Talks in my inbox! Cheers

Thank You for sharing your knowledge. Greatly appreciated. Enjoyed the music and back ground blended smoothly with the conversation.

My daughter is 5 and I've already told her if a young man asks her on a date and is wearing tracksuit bottoms, to walk away 😂 setting the bar high now. Ps she can date at 30 😜

Yet another great video Sonya. Love Hugo’s shoe recommendations as well.

You and Hugo have such pleasant dispositions. Thank you both for the very informative videos.

Thank you Sonya, I had to watch this video twice, if only to hear and see you talk but also to get a better idea of who I am and who I would like to be. Simply beautiful video.

Such great advice and wisdom bringing clarity on what persona someone would like to portray. It’s always a pleasure to learn from you and Hugo. Thank you very much and God bless

Great content and very nicely delivered Sonya!

I've been attending on KZfaq for a while the "Satorial School of Fashion", and my style has been elevated by a thousand miles.

Thank You Sonya, it was an excellent and such an engaging video.pleasure listening to you and Hugo as always.

Well done Sonya. Original content, great presentation, very impressive!

Enlightening and elegant, well done!

Nothing makes me asleep faster than hearing Sonya talks. 10 mins only!

As always your voice and comments commands respect and absolute attention .👍

I really enjoy how this video talks about natural aspects of how women interpret a man's presentation. Extremely informative.

Another gem from Sonya. Thank you. Have coincidentally just been in a work session about introverts, extroverts and ambiverts. Like those categories, I think most of us have elements of more than one archetype. Love the research from Ariel and Men's Health. A lot of women I know would simply like men to shower and shave on a regular basis!

This is the best video that sartorial talks have done for a long time..... and defiantly the button boot is my favourite footwear out of all of these....

Part pragmatic and part dashing. Absolutely. I can’t tell you how much I’ve enjoyed this particular video. Everything makes absolute sense. Thank you Sonia.

Very well presented... and a unique perspective. Thanks for sharing!

Absolutely fascinating! Where have you and Hugo been all my life? I so look forward to all your videos.

Loved the insights, especially with the nod towards psychology. As a photographer, colour theory is something that always fascinates me and where you mention red, I agree 100%. It's the same reason that red lipstick is popular in women, or you see lots of reds in flamenco dresses to really bring out the passion! Rich colours in general work well I think (golds, browns, orange, the colours of autumn for that 'snuggle by the fireplace' feeling) and are, perhaps, a subject for a whole video or book of their own! Great episode! Loved it!

Thank you Sonia, this presentation is very informative!

I could not stop smiling wachting the video. The shoe recoment-ation of Hugo absolutely nailed it. Me and my bro's very often "judging" men by the type of shoes they wear- with more or less the same result. Good job!

Thanks so much Sonya for the amazing way you continue teach and share from a womans point of view on mens fashion. I continue to learn alot from your video and look forward to the next one. Have a great day. Mike

Great video! Thanks for sharing it!

in a very professional way, as a fashion lover and photographer, I cant stop listening to you and taking my eyes off you.. Very well spoken and great information relayed over. Thank you so much. I'm learning quite a bit. Keep up the videos please.

Wonderful video that was very well delivered.

This is so good, love to you guys from Chicago

One of my favorite episodes... Thank you Sonya

I love the number 9...so I'm glad I am called "1800"; I like the term "composed" as we do have music that plays when we enter a room. In the 80s I dressed in "Futuristic" style, and yes I had a WW2 coat

Really interesting! And breezily entertaining. Tank you.

I can't really say if I'm 3, 4, 5 or 7. But luckily one doesn't have to choose. I am still at the beginning of my style jurney and I am open to everything!

You presented excellent categories to help men find their own styles. Thank you.

I feel like little bit of all these on occasion. Great breakdown!

Sonya you have such an Elegant way of speaking, I love all the video's you and Hugo produce, you are making the world a more Elegant place. Keep up the fantastic work. from your Sartorial disciples in British Columbia, Canada

You always have great content. Keep up the work =)

Fun - and educational. This is a great topic that is deeper than first meets the eye. Great video.

Another great video. Thanks.

My environment requires minimalist or dashing, but my heart is at the circa 1800; countryside elegant; and dandy. She and I will follow our own path, and these little big details can make it all the more enjoyable :) Thank you for the nice video.

Thank you, Sonya! Cheers!

This is the first video I seen from this channel, so gracefully named the 'Sartorial Talks.' I am going to subscribe based on the quality of this video about the different type of men's style as well the channel name! (14 May 2023).

I love the intro to these videos!

Very nice video, it will help many people to find a style that suits. thank you, it is helping me!

Wonderful content.

Thanks for the insights Sonya. Was hooked hearing Carl Jung mentioned 1 minute in.

I feel that I may be a mixture of the dashing, circa 1800 man and the countryside gentleman. I tend to make my own style. Mixing the silver pocket watch with a modern suit and waistcoat. But always warm. Always joyful.

As every painter has his own palette of colors even though he uses the same basic colors as other painters. So your "basic colors" that you present here Hugo and Sonya, are really interesting and original! Thanks for the great podcast!

Haha. “Geek suave”. Digging this. Thank you and Hugo for sharing. Great media and tips for us geek/pragmatic guys

Thoroughly enjoyed this one.

I loved this video! I would love if you could go deeper into each archetypes.

Thanks A lot ST 🇭🇹!!! TD nan kay la🙌🏽 !!!

+SAPTORIAL TALKS - Sonya and Hugo, you two make an awesome/dynamic couple. Brilliant subject with examples, indeed! 'Thank You' much for all that you both present in life with style. Blessings to you both! ~ Benjamin G. / NYC, USA

I am not a scholar in this field but based on my experience, women notice when you „just“ take care of you and your wardrobe. I don‘t need to wear a suit at work or when I go out; but I want to. Just to make me feel good, have a good time and of course, people notice that you feel good. I can dress more than decent with a pair of jeans, a shirt and a pair of derby shoes or Chelsea boots (which I love). I would say, that I fall in the minimalist category. I am 6‘4“. So I stand out physically, so regarding wardrobe, watches and shoes I try to keep it simple.

I'm grateful for your dashing man recommendation, thank you Sonya!

Would be very interesting to have the same conversation again today after the pandemic/working from home has driven forward a 'dress down' culture.

Good day Mr Jacomet and Ms Nicholson. I can't recall how I've come across your videos but it has been extremely educational. Such a different way to view men's clothing in this fast fashion, throw away culture. If possible I would appreciate your opinion and advice. I live in a warm climate which makes dressing well difficult from a practical perspective. Added to this is that the standard manner of men's dressing here (South Africa) is extremely casual. When one aims to dress well one is perceived as trying too hard, you certainly stand out from the crowd. There are many who dress well, but sadly sacrifice so much to do so. Many go into debt to acquire good clothes . Many guys come across as focusing solely on clothes and appearance. Which is why some guys don't aim to dress well as they do not want to appear vain/proud(sadly that was my perspective). What I appreciate about your channel and approach is that vanity and pride do not come across at all. What are your best suggestions for dressing well in warm climates? What would be a good start for a young man aiming to dress better? It would be great to afford the best but that is beyond many budgets. Grateful for your work and long may it continue. God bless

Thank you for telling us the numbers who took part in the survey.

I'd like to see her use photos of men wearing sneakers to describe how to use various types of pants like light blue, dark blue, grey, light brown, dark brown, white, burgundy, olive, denim, joggers paired with various shirt types, and extremely importantly, how to make decisions related to complimentary colours, analogous colours, triadic, earth tones, pastel, monochrome, textures, patterns vs. solids. I'm 35 and I'm fairly advanced, but I need extremely accurate and precise information about how to extend into the next levels of sneaker expression. As an example, I'd love to hear her talk about Nike Blazer Low GT, Nike Blazer Mid, Nike Air Max 90, and Nike Air Jordan 4... I consider those shoe silhouettes to be art pieces, and they are in my opinion fabulous starting points for some outfits, but I'm not sure how to decide if I want to aim for 2, 3 or 4 colours, and where, because splashes of colour in the watch, belt, socks, hats. My hair is blond, so I want her to talk about hair colour as well. I hope my "request" is sartorial-grade. Any videos over time will be much appreciated. I would love her to take a deep dive into those above mentioned shoe models and figure out what makes them tick for the female mind.

Great talk as always, and great presentation Sonya! Of the given archetypes I think I most closely resemble #5, whilst I can appreciate a clean smooth look of a pristine suit, I much prefer textured and rougher fabrics as they look much more approachable. I do a lot of the housework at home by the way, my wife has to steal some away from me :) - Han

Hey Sonya! Really enjoyed and appreciated this video! "Geek Suave" is an amazing description! Dis you make that up? Maybe Webster's Dictionary add this term?

Simply loved it!

Bravo! Well done and said

Well presented - charming

it is important to dress differently. I always dress like Tommy Shelby from Peaky Blinders, makes you feel unique and comfortable.

I agree 100%. That being said, Today I went to the grocery with old sweats, although they were pressed with a crease (I was moving stuff), a white t-shirt and a Ralph Lauren denim shirt worn as a jacket, clean white tennis shoes, my hair is curly and neat, my hands are manicured, a wood bracelet watch and wearing two wood rings (middle and pinky.) An attractive woman my age flirted with me. Bottom line, sometime if everything else is tight they see through the other stuff.

I would suggest that you do an episode or series on each archetype. I especially would like to see the circa 1800’s and dandy unpackaged a bit more. Great video!

Once again thank you so much, you did a wonderful job explaining what a women think. Nice to know. :)

Very nice like always and thank you for the explanation and persona of men style.Indeed, i recognize myself like a mix between a pragmantic and a dandy.

Excellent, I'm new to the channel and I like this video

Great video. Where or how can I find inspiration and examples of how to dress the pragmatic and minimalist way? I am drawn to these styles, but I've no idea of how to begin.

This is such an open ended subject, but very helpful.

Thank you what a fasinating talk

A milion dollars advice, I'm putting a smile on my face, no more pocker face, I love this channel, so helpful and informative, keep it up.

Very well explained the „problem“ the dashing man has, unfortunately I’m speaking by experience! But also this goes both ways, I more often than I like subconsciously seek women who match this „archetype“ and overlook other women’s companionship.

I think mixing switching styles may also be a thing. I for myself, would identify with the circa 1800 and futuristic archetype. Really contrary but history and future are both really interesting for me. It's nice to get some quality input on these in terms of characteristics. Quite inspiring. 👍

What a brilliant and beautiful woman. Spot on! ... I have been saying the very same things for few years now. I would add to that: Work on refining your persona and make sure that your personality is even better. That would simply be: unique brilliance!

Most men that I know who happen to have a deep knowledge of gentlemen's clothing style(s) simply do not care what women think of our dress code(s) and associated archetype(s). We wear our clothing for our own personal enjoyment. If, as an ancillary resulting effect, my dressing style communicates that I am unapproachable, then it is excellent that poaching women stay clear. Such an outcome translates into clarity and prevents any misunderstandings which in the current social climate is tantamount. Should I see a woman that I happened to be interested in, she would know and understand in perfect time...

Love this.

Wisdom Indeed!

I really do appreciate this kind of video is very insightful a very thoughtful and unique of the of his kind. My greeting George georgis

I’m only on the second archetype and all I’ve got to say is tear it *ALL* up and give me the *RISK*. I want to feel the creativity flowing on the edge of madness. While everyone else is wearing blue give me RED. A thought is that this may be a part of the composition that brings me the mysterious crowd I’m looking for..

Love your vids xden

I try to avoid wearing business suits daily through fear of misrepresenting myself but whenever I’ve worn a tie say a shantung with a denim shirt it seems to signal to women that I have a desire to appear elegantly and they seem to respond to this with favourable looks and makes some of them appear to be safer as to what my personality is! They let you in just a little bit more!

Beautiful video, and I love the beautiful insights. I never knew men's clothes meant THAT much to women. "The More You Know.." I was wondering which archetype the very dressy glam/Savile Row rockers like Bryan Ferry, Paul Weller, or Robert Palmer, Marvin Gaye, would be considered, more a Futuristic or a Panache?

Also your videos are a must see for young men focused on building our image and understanding who we really are and Will be once again in Black America.

The Circa 1800 seems to be inline with who I am - approachable and cerebral. But I just can't imagine myself dressing like this in the office. And a fob watch, lol... 1800's indeed. Although I do like the Vass Oxfords, but they're out of stock. This was a great video; has given me a lot to think about in terms of my personal style and brand.

Love the series. What is the brand and make of the boot shown at 13:06? Thank you.
