Looking like you are going to a soup kitchen: priceless
Anyone can spend their money on anything they want, without having to justify it to anyone else. However, if you want to look like you're homeless, you can do it for substantially less than $1,462. I legitimately don't have a clue where someone would wear that outfit to. My closest guesses are a hipster coffee shop, camping, or busker at Granville Island. I would never wear that to work, a restaurant, hockey game, golf club, beach, movies, grocery store, or interview.
What age group wears this? Maybe I'm too old for this trend. Maybe I'm too young. Maybe I'm too skinny. I prefer my clothes to fit instead of looking like I'm wearing a burlap sack. I prefer pants that are tailored to the proper length. Maybe I'm too conservative, since I wear suits to the office, but if I was going out to dinner or to the movies, and I wasn't wearing a suit, I'd wear something like these, depending on the occasion.

Date night at a fancy restaurant and/or show:

I actually quite like the first outfit, minus the pants. If you were wearing a normal pants, it would look great. I actually have a similar jacket, and I get compliments on it all the time.
The Lundqvist too tight and colourful sports coat, on the other hand, looks awful. Great for peacocking if you want to draw lots of attention to yourself.
The Gosling outfit is also too much. I don't need to see that much of his ankles. The combo of a striped sailor shirt and flood pants is overboard on the nautical theme. Unless he's at a yatch club in the 1950s there's no reason for him to be dressed like that. I'm not a member of a country club, so maybe there are rules about dressing like an ass that I'm not privy too.
