Have you ever been laughed at for doing the Vice look?

[Dadrian]

I have a couple of pairs of skinny jeans. They make a nice silhouette for certain outfits/occasions, but I have a 30” waiste and a 37” chest, and I’m 5’11”. One of my suits has has pants with a similar silhouette. It’s a dark suit, so it goes well. I also have some athletic pants that are pretty much skin tight from the knee down. They are actually very comfortable. 

I guess I’ll also say I have some Versace and Hugo boss suits from the 80s so that I don’t get kicked off the site for the skinny pants.

Skinny jeans and all black outfits here...so you're not alone! I like pastels on others though..

Got some looks when I wore the white linen suit, but they were like headturns - they didn't stare. Guess I stood out in a party where everyone had darker suits / blazers.

Afterwards I went to a mall and got no looks whatsoever, that I saw. Or maybe I had gotten used to them by then....

 

 

 

 

Is that a Porsche?

I'm right in the middle. I don't like the pants to be too baggy, but at the same time, I've had to throw away at least 3 pairs of pants I've bought recently because even though they *technically* fit, they hug my calves like women's yoga pants, lol. Thankfully I now have 2 pairs of dress pants that have just the right width for me. One's a darker teal green (so closer to Crockett's season 3 color style) and an off white. Pics coming soon.

I am super picky about pants and can never find ones I really like.  I have bought so many blazers that I had to send back because I feel like my arms are in sausage casings when wearing them.  I am not a fan of slim fit stuff.  It looks ok, but I am always uncomfortable.  It's hard finding a happy medium.

I wear some Vice look, especially Crockett's one in summer.

Even in GTA Online, but this time, I don't care if it rains in the game

I have to confess I do that as well  there is quite a selection of pastel clothing.

The cars as are not exact but are based on the Testa and Daytona from Vice City.

I love to live that Vice life in GTA Online as well! It's damn awesome.. 

[fakespyder]

I still think s5 Crockett would fit right in to this period with a lot of his outfits...not all mind you, but a majority of them.

Agreed with that ... What he's wearing in Season 5 is still a classic today

Miami Vice have influenced my style a lot, but I never go too far. I prefer modernized 5 season look — slightly long hair, casual blazer (cotton or linen), henley t-shirt, light washed jeans (I prefer Quiksilver), suede sneakers, Carrera sunglasses and a strong cologne. I'm from Russia and very few people here have ever heard of Miami Vice, it was first shown in 1999 if I remember correctly. So nobody laughed at my style even when I was wearing a white linen blazer and pastel henley t-shirts, my mates thought it was fresh.

Take it from a 60 year old guy.  There is a saying in America, "What's old is new again."  So I can understand your mates thinking your outfit was fresh.  Vice style lives forever!

Amen to that! Miami Vice lives forever for me.

To back this up, here's a conversation I had with an 18-year old girl I work with at my job two weeks ago...

HER: Do you have a mullet?

I took my cap off. My hair is long all around now so it fell out and down.

HER: No, you don't. Yours is just long. That's cool too, but mullets are hot.

ME: You're shitting me.

HER: No, I'm not. Girls love guys with mullets. Short on the sides, longer in the back.

ME: For twenty years mullets were, "Eww! That's so 80s."

HER: I don't know what you're talking about. All my friends think guys with mullets are hot.

Looks like we've done it, Gen X-ers. We've gone back to the future.

Did I ever get laughed at for it?

No, never laughed at.  I was selective about pieces of ther wardrobe, and Tubbs' TIES were superb.  Thin, nearly always dark, with mutes of silver ----DAMN, they were fine neckties, at a time when the Italian "mobster" tie was still considered the "correct" tie of the times.  
I am still on that in the summertime.  Office attire is either a Tubbs-like necktie (near impossible to find these days), or Castillo's black "don't mess with me cuz I'm way ahead of your unimportant world" neckties.

You are right Pal ...

Some peoples still doesn't understand the definition of cool 

[RedDragon86]

I think in the summertime it's timeless to wear say white pants with a pastel t-shirt.

When I was holiday in Dubai all I wore they entire times was numerous cream/white pants with peach, pinkish, sky blue t-shirts with white slip-on shoes.

In any decade the pastel look we see in the first 2 season's is a natural way to dress in the boiling hot sun.
