It was a few of his colleagues, back in the \u201870s. Everyone looked <em>extremely <\/em>retro. Which is a nice way of saying they looked very dated. The hairstyles, the glasses, the facial hair all screamed: <em>&#8220;&#8217;70s!!!&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>For an idea of the effect, here&#8217;s an iconic 1978 photo of Microsoft&#8217;s earliest employees. Note the uniquely &#8217;70s stylings.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/en\/5\/5e\/Microsoft-Staff-1978.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"433\" height=\"341\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In this photo my father showed me, however, one man was <strong>cleanshaven, with his hair neatly combed back<\/strong>, very Steven Seagal-esque. The striking thing was this one guy looked like he\u00a0was visiting the\u00a0&#8217;70s from the present using a time-machine. In other words, he looked<strong> timeless, classically well-groomed and just plain good<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>So this season I&#8217;m taking inspiration from this and wearing my hair up. After many seasons of a modified mop, and variations on the Justin Bieber shag, that&#8217;s\u00a0a big change for me. So far I&#8217;m happy with the change, even if it does <strong>necessitate time each morning with a blowdryer and styling wax<\/strong> (my previous harstyle required literally zero attention\u00a0in the morning).<\/p>\n<p>Take a close look at these runway grooming looks from Roberto Cavalli, Burberry Prorsum and Etro, and maybe you&#8217;ll be inspired to let your hair up as well.<\/p>\n<p>xoxo,<br \/>\nMrLuxuryFashionGuru___<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n<p><em>Roberto Cavalli, FW2012:<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7045\/6880570379_2cf7653e97.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7043\/6880570409_9bf717f57a.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>Burberry Prorsum, Etro:<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7198\/6880570225_ce594d9790.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7059\/6880570171_1ce33a7c51.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>And one more from Versace, FW2012:<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7042\/6880570269_0d10d44622.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This season, men\u2019s grooming goes classic.
