What male CEOs are wearing
CNN
It now seems like years ago that Silicon Valley's hoodie culture made male executives' wardrobes more casual across most industries. From financial companies to insurers to automakers, traditional dress codes morphed into "dress appropriately."
Now executive men in more traditional offices are figuring out how to dress down but still look professional, and those at tech firms are growing up and wondering how to dress up but still look cool.
"It should look effortless. People shouldn't be able to put their finger on why you look as good as you do, " said Nick Hart, founder of Spencer Hart.
Here are some items high-powered men are wearing when dressing for work and weekends:
The sneakers
Sneakers have gone totally upscale, with eye-popping price tags to match. Some executives will throw down more than $1, 000 for a pair.
Netflix CEO Reed Hastings and Snap CEO Evan Spiegel have shown a preference for wearing Common Projects sneakers.
The jeans
Of course, great jeans with a blazer and smart loafers, if not sneakers, is a modern classic look.
Some handsome staples include the JBrand Kane fit jeans, the AG Graduate fit, and the Frame L'Homme, said Jacci Jaye of Wall Street Stylist.
The glasses
If you have to wear glasses, there's no reason they can't add a touch of style. Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella is often seen in a striking pair.
For colorful frames that are not exorbitantly priced, you might try Eyebobs. The company has noted that top execs like Revlon chairman Ron Perelman have been spotted in them.

男性首席执行官穿这些
It now seems like years ago that Silicon Valley's hoodie culture made male executives' wardrobesmore casual across most industries. From financial companies to insurers to automakers, traditional dress codes morphed into "dress appropriately."
现在看来,这似乎是多年前的事了——硅谷的连帽衫文化让大多数行业的男性高管的穿着变得更加休闲。从金融公司、保险公司到汽车制造商,传统的着装规范逐渐演变为“穿着得当”。
Now executive men in more traditional offices are figuring out how to dress down but still look professional, and those at tech firms are growing up and wondering how to dress up but still look cool.
如今,在比较传统的办公室里,男高管们正在琢磨着如何在穿着休闲的同时,又不失专业风范。而科技公司的高管们正在成长,他们在思考如何在穿着正式的同时,又不失酷感。
"It should look effortless. People shouldn't be able to put their finger on why you look as good as you do," said Nick Hart, founder of Spencer Hart.
斯宾塞·哈特的创始人尼克·哈特说道:“穿搭应该看起来毫不费力。人们应该没法指出为什么你穿得那么好。”

连帽衫文化
在过去,如果在美国提到连帽衫(hoodie),人们总会把它和“街头流氓”联系起来。当时,它代表的是青少年们打破传统、桀骜不驯的叛逆精神——只要戴上兜帽,他们就可以“隐藏身份”,做任何自己想做的事情。
如今,随着时代的变化,连帽衫成为了时尚潮流中不可或缺的元素,是年轻与随性的标志。就连精英云集的硅谷,也诞生了一种“连帽衫文化(hoodie culture)”。这种文化使得连帽衫成为了硅谷程序员和工程师们的必备单品。而这一文化的创造者,便是脸书(Facebook)的首席执行官马克·扎克伯格(Mark Zuckerberg)。
在脸书首次公开招股的路演上,他穿着标志性的连帽衫,一身随性打扮。从他在推特上晒出的衣橱照里,我们也能看到好几件同款深灰色连帽衫。在一众西装革履的业界精英当中,扎克伯格的出现无疑是一股清流。他如此随性、亲民的形象,与他的亿万美元身家形成了强烈的反差,也为他自由、不羁的个性做出了最好的注解。
