Men of Style

I feel as though I am long overdue in a tribute to the Male Icons of Style. So without further a due..I give you part 1 in the "Men of Style; Both Real and fictional"...in no particular order.

Enjoy

ADRIENNE BRODY

 Always looks dapper and yet unique. Usually pairing clean lines with a modern cut, his look says timelessly elegant yet still incredibly hip.


AL CAPONE


He may have been a gangster but he sure new how to dress...perfectly put together 3 piece suits...criminals these days need to take a que from the mob king. 


JOHNNY DEP


Completely reliant on his own personal sense of style, Johnny Depp has become a style icon precisely because he stays true to himself. His attire says gypsy, ex patriot artist, free spirit and its for that that we love him.


SEAN CONNERY



Whether playing Bond or simply just himself Sean Connery is the epitome of suave. I mean, who else can pull off those tiny shorts? 


THE RAT PACK


Now there's a group of men who knew how to dress...no matter the drunken debauchery that occurred on or off stage they kept their look clean and together. 


TOM WOLFE
This author know what he likes and sticks with it. He purchased his first white suit in 1962 and has carried on wearing this uniform since. In his words, " the outfit disarms the people he observes, making him, in their eyes, "a man from Mars, the man who didn't know anything and was eager to know."


BOB DYLAN
The original hipster. 



STEVE MCQUEEN


One of my all time favorites. The king of quintessential cool. McQueen took classic American pieces and pulled them off in a rugged, masculine way.His arsenal included aviators, slim-cut tailored suits, sport coats, zip-up windbreakers, khakis, button-downs in pale colors, V-neck sweaters, and shawl-collared cardigans, as well as polo shirts. However he looked just as at home in an impecably tailored suit as he did in his racing gear.
