Don’t laugh. But men in Edmonton were rated by women as the best dressed in Canada, beating out their sartorial brethren in Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal, according to a survey by online stylist service MFMK.
Edmonton was chosen by 84.3 per cent of female respondents in the Google survey of 1,000 people.
Montreal men were rated the best dressed at 31.8 per cent by both male and female respondents.
Other findings from the survey:
- Only 15.3 per cent of men said they have ‘a lot of style’ compared to 27.5 per cent of women.
- 7.1 per cent of men report that ‘they never buy the right things’ vs. 4.8 per cent of women.
- 27.3 per cent of respondents rank running shoes with business outfits as a definite no-no
- 14.2 per cent would like to ‘veto’ the Canadian tuxedo (denim on denim)
