"Now I'm way into suits that I can put on whether I took a shower or not, and wear barefoot and paint my toes black or whatever color the suit is. It's very cool to wear suits like that. Roll up the sleeves and just say yee-haw"
About this Quote
The intent isn’t fashion advice so much as permission. Tyler frames the suit as armor for chaos: you can look put-together while staying feral. That’s classic rock-star alchemy, turning sloppiness into style and calling it freedom. The details do the work. Shower-or-not is a joke, but it’s also a thesis about authenticity in a culture that performs cleanliness and control. Barefoot in a suit reads like backstage life leaking onto the red carpet; painting toes to match the suit turns the body into an accessory, a reminder that Tyler’s persona has always been part drag, part swagger, part dare.
Context matters: a musician from the era when rock star fashion was a battlefield now embracing suits not as conformity but as a new costume. This is aging without surrendering the mischievous myth. The "yee-haw" is a wink at Americana, a campy flourish that keeps the whole thing from sounding precious. It’s Tyler insisting that refinement can be rowdy, and that rebellion doesn’t have to abandon elegance to stay loud.
