"Men aren't allowed", who says?
If men are really serious about gaining fashion freedom, they have to get past looking for permission and approval.
At the very least decide whose opinions and approval actually matter to them.
Can't do that, well, enjoy the drab because that's your choice, except it really isn't is it?

Well, of course. Men aren't allowed to show much skin to wear said jewelry on...
Not that it matters. I have seen younger men wear necklaces over their shirts, bracelets on their skin. Most of the old, meager selection was intended to be worn as part of old style trouser suits.

What I imagine will come to pass....

The young men who are experimenting with jewelry...will be running society a few decades from now. So I wouldn't be surprised if something gains traction around them. I would note that the addition of jewelry can be incremental (much more easily than skirts). If nothing else, a single necklace, or a single bracelet, might gain traction. Eventually becoming conventional for mens wear. Probably becoming conventional for mens formal wear.

Sequence:

1. Jewelry gains traction.

2. MIS gains traction.

As the skirts gain traction, men will be deciding what items of jewelry they will be wearing with the skirts.

Men only need to give themselves permission to wear what they want. That’s it. I went out today in a gorgeous maxi dress and high heeled knee boots. Nobody cared. Men need to realise that the fear is all in their head and that as a society attitudes really have changed.

Generally, what you can get from this thread are hints. Other than the rules for traditional kilts, there aren't really any rules for MIS.

Skirts and dresses tend to lend themselves to formal wear. If you have a vision, go for it :!:
