California-based Derek Guy has made a name for himself via his X, formerly Twitter, account where he comments on menswear and popular culture.
His sartorial-themed commentaries gained traction when the website’s “For You” tab began to feature his posts following an algorithmic change.
Guy thinks deeply about fashion – whether it's feminists putting on pants for the first time or the rise of youth subcultures like punk or hip hop towards the end of the 20th century.
He has bylines in The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Financial Times, and Esquire.
Speaking with Jim on Sunday Morning, the sartorial guru says he is “not an intellectual” but loves a good deep yarn about how what people wear says about them and life itself.
