Turns out you can, actually, have the best of both worlds. Look at Seth Rogen, who just kept surprisingly stylish 2019 rolling by endorsing the shirting trend du jour: the half-and-half.
Pioneered by Prada, popularised by Jeff Goldblum and now, dropped into the mainstream by Rogen, yesterday's Lion King premiere saw the 37-year-old prove that every man can enjoy it. Yes, even you.
What's more, the rules are simple. That's because there aren't that many at play. In an age when the print clash is less a faux pas and more a really great thing, you can meld two unlikely bedfellows into a very happy marriage. So in this instance, seventies geometrics and ember florals.
Just make sure the statement ends there. Rogen, wise wardrobe owl he is, anchored the volume using a fail-safe, razor-sharp all-black suit. And the same applies to the off-duty, too: quiet pair of classic shorts, clean sneakers and, maybe, a pair of wild sunglasses you've only got the gall to wear in a foreign location where nobody knows who you are.
So this season, do things by halves.
