520 8 _aWho is today's white-collar man? The world of work has changed radically since 'The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit' and other mid-20th-century investigations of corporate life and identity. Contemporary jobs are more precarious, casual Friday has become an institution and telecommuting blurs the divide between workplace and home. Gender expectations have changed, too, with men's bodies increasingly exposed in the media and scrutinised in everyday interactions. Based on interviews with dozens of men in three US cities with distinct local dress cultures - New York, San Francisco and Cincinnati - Erynn Masi de Casanova asks what it means to wear the white collar now.
