Who: Anderson Paak
Where: TIDAL x Brooklyn Benefit Concert, New York
It’s tough out there in the streetwear jungle, but R&B crooner Anderson Paak knows that sometimes in order to survive you just got to dodge the style bullets and stick to your tried and tested camo combo. Add a slim fitting dark hoodie slipped underneath for streetwear outfit combo 101.
Who: Nick Jonas
Where: TIDAL x Brooklyn Benefit Concert, New York
Wing commander Jonas reporting for best-dressed men of the week duty here in some natty pinstripe trousers balanced by a sleek mock neck sweater and a throwback cut on the leather jacket that adds bulk up top. You’ve earned your stripes Jonas, now go win the war.
Who: Eric Rutherford
Where: NewFest Opening Night, New York
Making like Big Bird from Sesame Street is absolutely no-one’s idea of a go-to formal look (sorry double B). But if you get the right shade of yellow (always darker) and tame the hue with all-black everywhere else then you can come away looking less like an awkward puppet show flapper and a whole lot more like style superstar Eric Rutherford.
Who: Darren Kennedy
Where: Specsavers Spectacle Wearer of the Year Awards, London
Irish TV presenter and one of our favourite style influencers on the ‘gram, Darren Kennedy aims wide on the lapels this week but gets it
Who: David Gandy
Where: London, UK
When we’re caught startled it’s usually in a pair of sloppy sweats with our hands hoovering up the last of the Haribo from the bag. But when model and tailoring maestro David Gandy is taken by surprise it’s with his hand expertly rested in his trouser pocket with a fine luxe double breasted jacket up top and a pair of tailored black trousers toning down the dazzle down below. Damn, life’s unfair.
Who: Troye Sivan
Where: ‘Boy Erased’ Film Premiere, Los Angeles
The second purveyor of the menswear hand tuck this week (it adds movement and dynamism to the photo don’t you know) is popstar Troye Sivan. He’s sporting a distinctly slouchy 80s-inspired suit with lapels so ginormous they deserve their own guest spot on Dynasty (big lapels are becoming a bit of a thing ain’t they?).
Who: Liam Payne
Where: Westfield London’s 10th Birthday Celebration, London
Bringing the pain to another week of best dressed men, the former 1D man is a bit of a wunderkid when it comes to high-low styling. Here we see him slot in a pair of tailored trousers with a simple neutral khaki tee and some casual Converse kicks, all married together by a sharp crop and a neat shirt tuck.
Who: Rami Malek
Where: ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ NY Premiere, New York
It’s saying something when a spiffy grey checked suit like this one as worn by Bohemian Rhapsody main man Rami Malek is one of the more played down tailoring looks of the week. But with a black shirt and a spiffy air-tie underneath keeping the look modern and a slim fit down the trouser leg keeping it trim, this is business as usual for Malek. Keeping his high standards up without having to over stretch himself with anything too ‘out there’.
Who: Hugh Jackman
Where: ‘The Front Runner’ NY Premiere, New York
He can act, he can sing, he can force claw blades from his knuckles. And now he can lead a trend, too – brown tailoring in this case. When the winter season is dulling your skin you’d be wise to follow Jackman’s lead and bring the rich and versatile hue into your wardrobe, making a change from all that snoring-boring navy and black.
