Compared with women’s clothing, there are fewer matching books in the field of men’s clothing, but if you choose from the vast sea of books, it is really a knowledge. In that case, it is better to start reading from more classic books! The following recommendations are part of the best selection of some books I have read. You can refer to one or two. Of course, I will update the interpretation of these books from time to time in my column!
1. The Book of Tools
Reference books have a wide range of concepts, including manuals, textbooks, academic monographs, etc. These books give you a skill that you can learn! For example, if you want to learn electric welding, you can buy electric welding teaching materials; if you want to learn financial securities, you can buy financial securities teaching materials; you bought an unmanned aircraft and a camera, but you don’t know how to operate it, just read the manual;
2. The Book of Entertainment
The concept of entertainment books is relatively speaking, but for readers, they are basically for entertainment. For example, some people like to read romance novels on the subway and on the road, and some people like to watch “The Romance of the Three Kingdoms” and “Ulysses” in the bathroom. “Etc.; for some readers who want to sleep as soon as they read a book, reading a book before going to bed is undoubtedly self-hypnosis, which is also a pastime; furthermore, for university professors and philosophy lovers, perhaps for them, reading majors Books in the field are also a kind of happiness experience;
3. Book of Thoughts
The books that can be called the book of thought are mostly humanistic classics. I also call it the book of saints! Charlie Munger once said: “Learn to deal with the deceased saint.” Reading the book of the saint is to communicate with the saint. This is more trustworthy than the teacher taught you how to solve the problem! But what needs to be distinguished is science and thought. In science is not equal to in thought! For example, Augustine has a book called “The Confession” thought book, Hegel has “Psychophenomenology”, China has Wang Yangming’s “Biography of Xilu” thought book, “A Dream of Red Mansions” thought book, Confucius’s “The Analects”, etc. .
Reading for knowledge, but not only the tool and skill books, but also the acquisition of cultural literacy, aesthetic taste and other knowledge mentioned in the book of thought.
1. “The Gentleman: A Guide to Timeless Fashion”

Recommended elaboration:
Both books were written by Bernhard Roetzel.
The book “The Gentleman” is an information guide about the details of men’s clothing matching and daily necessities: there are many suggestions on the personality matching of internationally famous brands of clothing, fabrics and fabrics, and there are introductions by fashion masters who lead modern styles.

The “Elite Men’s Wearing Guide” introduces the general principles of daily elite men’s dressing, covering different styles such as business wear, formal wear, and casual wear, from fabrics to overall collocation, including the choice of colors, sizes, and accessories. Detailed explanation. The reason for the low Douban score may be due to the fact that this book puts too much emphasis on the “good-looking” of men’s clothing rather than classics; as the book says: “Everything is for chic and good-looking!” so that all men who want to be chic and good-looking can be able to do so. Chic and good-looking is the main theme of the “Guide to Elite Men’s Wearing”, but only a very small number of people can accept the dressing suggestions in the book.
