In 2016 as a designer one has to always think out side the box when it comes to innovative clothing collections. I am not sure what this is all about but it certainly got my attention to write about it. It would only take a French designer to come up with this. The creative brand called Calchemise have decided to recreate the man’s shirt. I think that menswear should always have a sense of humor. I don’t know even know what to call this dress shirt, shirt or play-suit collection. I don’t even know if it’s to be worn with a suit or is it made to sleep in?
The company describe themselves as Un petit pas pour l’humanité, un grand pas pour l’homme. Aujourd’hui, la chemise et le caleçon ne font qu’un. I do like how the Spanish define it.
‘Calchemise’: la camisa con calzoncillo incorporado que arrasa en Francia.
I decided to call it a shirt dress on my twitter feed to see if anyone would want to join in the conversation and see if this was a new trend or maybe it is a fad after all?
Well the #shirtdress #menstylefashion have your say #retweet for a #yes or #favourite for a no @MANGO_Man pic.twitter.com/ufZZ6VGe9K

Will It Trend
A couple of years ago I wrote about how I wear men’s shirts to bed. Could this be the solution to my question? Maybe women will go out and buy it too, as a gift for their loved ones. I guess the worse case scenario is a new pajama party trend begins. Is it comfortable to sleep in as a guy? The question in Spanish is, La pregunta es: ¿Cuántos hombres estarían dispuestos a ponerse el“calchemise”?
Would it be an outfit guys would wear amongst the streets of Madrid let alone Barcelona or Paris.
Only you guys could answer the next question, how comfortable would this be regarding your balls? Well on that note you the fashion jury can vote and have your say.
I decided to send out a tweet to find out the reactions from MenStyleFashion followers . All I can say if anyone of you dare to buy one.
Take a shot please and make sure you tweet your style @menstylefashion

@gracieopulanza @moochronic @MANGO_Man @gettingcontacts I’d wager, not many! Do you wear underpants beneath or not?

@SuaveRepublique @gracieopulanza @MANGO_Man @gettingcontacts To be fair, you could wear your grundys over the top and improve the look.
