Who: Conor McGregor
Where: Madison Square Garden, NYC
What happens when you cross Wall Street with cage fighting? Conor McGregor, that’s what.
The MMA superstar reignites the pinstripe suit with a royal blue palette and choice accessories – a 1980s nod without the shoulder pads. After all, the boardroom really is a battlefield.
Who: Asa Butterfield
Where: Build Series Event for Miss Peregrine’s Home For Peculiar Children, NYC
Peculiarity isn’t always a bad thing. And it isn’t just Asa Buttefield’s latest flick flying the weirdo flag.

Who: James Van Der Beek
Where: 2016 Streamy Awards, LA

Who: Robert Pattinson
Where: LAX Airport, LA
R-Patz has been rather quiet these days. Probably because the inter-flight look speaks for itself. In this case, an oversized bomber jacket elevates an otherwise grounded outfit – proof that one statement piece is enough. Actions speak louder than words.
Who: Rodrigo Santoro
Where: HBO’s Westworld Premiere, Los Angeles
Sportswear and tailoring can be awkward bedfellows. But as Rodrigo Santoro proves, if you keep your colours muted, then classic separates can sit pretty beneath activewear. A sartorial affair to remember.
Who: Reggie Yates
Where: IWC x BFI Gala, London
A red carpet at a heritage watch event is where exciting looks go to die. But as Reggie Yates proves, a glove-fit double-breasted suit and classic
Who: Miles Teller
Where: Valentino Front Row, Paris
It takes a certain kind of man to outshine Diane Kruger and Keleigh Sperry. But, thanks to a navy tonal flex and subtly printed tie, Miles Teller pulls it off. Miles ahead.
