Dressing Sharp and Casual for the Man in His 50s. Even catalogs that cater to middle-aged and older men tend to use models that are substantially younger than their target market. It's not unusual to see twenty-somethings grinning at you from the pages of Brooks Brothers or London Fog catalogs, even though the vast majority of those companies' sales go to men in their forties and up. That can be misleading. Looks aren't strictly limited by age, but the reality is that your style should change at least a little bit as you age . Most men in their fifties are not flattered by the clothing they wore in their twenties. Business suits are, of course, almost always safe, and a good look so long as they're well-made and well-fitted, but they're also not much use outside of formal business settings. A lot of men don't even need them for work — and some men in their 50s don't work at all, if they've been fortunate enough to retire reasonably early in life. That creates a big need for clothes that look sharp but are also casual enough to wear in relaxed, social settings. Fortunately, there are a lot of options out there — and with “silver foxes” like George Clooney and Richard Gere splashed all over the contemporary tabloids, there's no better time to be a good-looking middle-aged man than today. The Advantages of Age: Personalize Your Look Over Time. Younger men have the advantage of a blank slate. They're just starting to come into their own, and many have full control over their wardrobes for the first time. That leads to some experimental young men looks (some good and some bad), but it also requires a lot of expense and some inevitable false starts. Older men, on the other hand, enjoy a solid starting baseline: they've got a good twenty or thirty years of accumulated clothes to work with. Not all of those will necessarily lend themselves to a sharp look. If you were a sloppy dresser for much of your life, and decided to sharpen your image up for the first time in your fifties, you've got some shopping ahead of you. But most men can get at least some service out of even a modest wardrobe. Anything that fits well can be put back into use with a little effort. Look through your closet for good staple pieces that can form the backbone of a varied wardrobe: Dress slacks: Got some old gray slacks you wore once in a while for work, or even the pants of a suit whose jacket has long since died? Get those back into rotation as your new alternative to jeans and sweatpants. Turns out they're just a comfortable once you've had them tailored, and they make you look a million times classier. Khakis and chinos: Same principle but a little more relaxed. Pair them with jackets or sweater so that you don't have that office drone khakis-and-button-down look going on, but for the most part these are still a great jeans alternative. Sports jackets and blazers: The ability to wear a jacket any time you want, in almost any circumstance, is one of the perks of middle age. Get them adjusted for a good fit and look better than everyone else in the room. Dress shirts: Hopefully years of work clothes has left you with a decent collection of collared shirts. Keep a few plain white ones for their versatility, and add some color and patterns to the rest of the collection as needed. Nothing too soft or frumpy — a little crispness goes a long way in your shirt collars. Leather shoes: When in doubt, put leather on your feet.
