Double Wear

When it’s particularly nice to layer, or not

→ One tank top: nice. Two tank tops over each other: something’s happening in
quite an Italo-Zucchelli-for-Calvin-Klein-ten-years-ago kind of great way.
→ One shirt: we know that. Two shirts: a bit more special, and fun to play with
the chemistry of stripes and patterns – go for it!
→ One polo shirt: utterly normal. Two polo shirts layered: what’s going on with
all that collar-and-placket action? One collar up, both up, both down? Underlying
polo all buttoned up? Intriguing.
→ One watch: handy. Two watches: pompous.
→ One pair of boxers: a sexy piece of underwear. Two pairs of boxers: pointless,
but therefore quite deliberate and lush; speaks of confidence.
→ One pair of socks: always better than no socks. Two pairs of socks: feels a bit
contrived and not so comfy, unless your shoes are way too big.
→ One henley: cute. Two henleys: a bit too much going on around the décolletage.
→ One pair of jeans: that most ubiquitous of all trousers. Two pairs of jeans: rare,
and stiff to wear, but quite a fascinating look.
→ One T-shirt: classic! Two T-shirts: ooh, interesting situation around the neck,
and that subtle strip of contrasting colour on the biceps. The way two layers of
fabric rub against each other makes for some surprise drapeyness on the body.
Nice and warm, too.
→ One wool jumper: great. Two wool jumpers: Prada.
→ One tie: maybe. Two ties: no.
