Men's Style: 3 Ways for Gents to Look Smart on a Night Out
Gents, want to look good at the club? Here's how it's done in muggy Hong Kong weather.
On a night on the town, the clothes make the man. That can be tough in Hong Kong’s muggy weather, even after dark. I enlisted the help of Quentin Pitingo and Danilo Martins, who model by day and promote club Play at night, to show you how it’s done.

Collar Up
If you want to look boss in the club (or look like you’re paying), get a nice, thin formal shirt like this plain button-up with colored details from the RCANO Classic collection.

Blazer Hot
Unless it’s a special occasion like an opening party or your birthday, skip the full suit on a Hong Kong summer night out. Just go with a light blazer: and remember to pick something nice underneath so you’re sure to look on point even if you lose the jacket.
Pocket of Sunshine
The pocket square is a crucial final touch to your look. Get a printed one like these from Cuffs.

The Casual Clubber Rafael Raya Cano
Plain Ol’ Polo
A big no to plain t-shirts: those are for daytime. If you’re hitting the club but you want to go for a more casual look, go with a polo shirt. This black Lacoste shirt will definitely upscale your look.
