...in the wardrobe department overall. The crux of a quality men's wardrobe is the versatility of items. We stress classic, quality pieces that will last for years and can be worn in many different combinations.
Look at women (don't stare): It's all about a splash. Having a dress or outfit for an occasion. Shoes with enormous heels that they'd never wear for more than a few hours, etc. I don't have to describe it - you know how it works.
Then I saw this article yesterday about 99dresses. It seems like a good concept...for a problem that should not even exist.

You swap dresses, paying for shipping.
What do you think happened? Did men sell women a bill of goods about fashion? Did we not realize that we're also splitting these clothing bills? In the last 150+ years of men's fashion, the same philosophy has prevailed (spare Liberace from the sample size). For women, it seems to be accelerating with cheap dresses at Forever 21.
