male style icons

Quite often when I analyse the looks/clothes of men that I really admire, I realise that they are actually just slim.
This is too true.

I've got the build of a builder. Belly and top heavy. 98.7% of styley clothes out of the window. Bought a really nice Adidas old skool zip up from Asia years ago. Would be perfect for the dance floor. Black/yellow 3 stripe. Never wear it. Always feel like a fat dude in a tracky top.

What's the crack with bootcut jeans then? No skin tights in my wardrobe today.... Or am I just old now?
 
I can't find any photos that really do them justice, buy I once saw Gilbert and George in the street one afternoon on Brick Lane and they looked amazing - they were wearing the most beautifully cut, vibrantly coloured tweed suits. I spotted them from a few hundred yards away and was marvelling at how well dressed they were for some time before I realised who they were.

I think they might be wearing the suits in question in this photo, but the colours really don't come out like they did in the flesh - they practically glowed.

There’s a great story about them relayed here by Tracey Emin.

 
One time I was bowled over. There was a fashion show for armani and all these incredible outfits, typical fashion show, the art side of fashion. Armani comes out to take a bow at the end and he's got denim Jeans, white t shirt, black shoes. In a way it grabbed me more than the actual catwalk parade. Knew to contrast himself so sharply against what had been before
