Pikachew's Guide To Malaysian Men's Dressing
The Ah Beng
Men of various age & race adopt it, as it is fashionable yet identifiable with celebrity status & youth culture (i.e. F4 or Jay Chou or Mawi).
Suitable for both casual & business wear, with endless accessories to further complement the look like belts, ties, necklaces, arm bands & leather boots.
This style is most fashionable if accompanied with a radical hairstyle or hair color.
Signature Style: Rolled up cotton long sleeve shirt / body hugging baby T + Flair bottomed jeans.

The College Student
There are 2 main fashion styles to this: The Hip-Hoper & The Slacker.
Both are equally accepted styles of identity as a varsity student in a private institution or international college.
Not a look to suit all ages, as it is mostly worn by men between 12 - 35 yrs old.
Mostly stereotyped as casual wear, The Slacker is spotted on men of all walks of life (working or student) after working hours from shopping malls to mamaks. During football season, this look is at it's peak with many men donning their favourite football clubs/teams shirts in this style.
The Hip Hop is taken more seriously by non-working males, as it also comes with various accessories to complement the look.
Signature Style: Baggy long sleeve shirt / football or baseball or basketball jersey + baggy stone washed jeans + cap.
*In a Nutsack: ALL college-going men dress like this in our country.
The Locals
The main difference between this look and the College Student look is in the accessories.The Local look has less body accessories but take head gear and jackets seriously.
Needless to say, the fashion victims of this kind of look take pride in their outer appearance.
This look is definitely the more flamboyant of the 2 student-prone styles.
Day-wear would mostly concentrate on the head gear (with more colorful caps or something religious for that bold statement) & eye wear.
Night-wear is more formal & dramatic, complete with a warm jacket for that cold breeze, or a motorcycle helmet for that wild night out with the guys.
Signature Style: Baggy shirt w sports jacket + tight denim jeans + head accessory + cigarettes.
*In a Nutsack: Every men in this country has been through this 'kampung' phase before.
The Yuppy

The basic definition of this style is in it's perfectly groomed look, and expensive fabric shirts.
The Yuppy look is never incorporated with jeans & T-shirts.
Also the most flexible style for occasions that require people's attention onto themselves.
During Work: Makes you look really smart and seem really busy.
During Lunch / Poser time @ Starbucks: A nice Polo neck shirt and IT gadgets/accessories further enhances your coolness.
