Proper clothes were invented in the year of our lord 1830, prior to this date everyone wore low-quality shirts skinny, casual ties and corduroy trousers. Proper clothes consist of a smart jacket, smart trousers, smart shirt, smart shoes, a smart cravat or tie, a smart waistcoat and opptionally a pocket watch, a cane or walking stick and a smart hat (Smart Hats are Bowler hats and Top Hats, prior to the 19th century everyone wore Trilbys or Flat Caps)

In more recent times the original Victorian style of proper clothes is less commonly seen, instead, a more modern styling of proper clothes has been created by 'Young Moderns'. The young modern prefers to wear a smart shirt, a smart tie, smart trousers, smart shoes and a hand knitted over garment such as a vest or woolen jumper/sweater. The hand knitted over garment is the important part of this form of proper clothes as it gives the young modern a more natural, earthy look unlike the over dressed stylings of Victorian proper clothes.
