Ralph Lauren - Style Icon

Why He’s A Style Icon

Ralph Lauren became fascinated with style at an early age. As a boy, he worked to earn money to buy expensive suits and his love of style was rivaled only by his drive for success. Quoted in his high school yearbook as saying he hoped to become a millionaire, Lauren’s personal aspirations equipped him with a firm understanding of peoples' needs to project an air of accomplishment. So in 1967, as a young man with a vision, Ralph Lauren began selling neckties he designed himself under the Polo name. Following the release of his infamous Ralph Lauren polo shirt in 1972, Lauren became a household name almost overnight.

The fashion mogul now leads a $900 million business that 

includes some 300 stores in the U.S. and approximately 100 others worldwide. A chief reason behind Ralph Lauren’s success is that what he sells is far more seductive to consumers than any particular product because he sells a lifestyle, and he was one of the first designers to do so. America’s most successful fashion designer has more branches of his label under his belt than you can count. Having long moved beyond apparel, the Ralph Lauren brand has expanded to include fragrances, a home line and much, much more. In 2007, the Council of Fashion Designers of America honored Lauren with the American Fashion Legend Award: one of the most prestigious accolades in the fashion world. The embodiment of the dream he stands for, Ralph Lauren’s ability to continuously innovate while staying true to his image makes him a true style icon.

 

Dress The Lauren Way

To dress the Ralph Lauren way is to have an appetite for fine living, American-style. Rather than making one’s achievements or ambitions glaringly apparent with flashy apparel, a Ralph Lauren enthusiast opts for elegant, easy-to-wear pieces in luxurious materials like wool, silk and cashmere. He also has a closet full of timeless, impeccably tailored basics that exude good taste and can be mixed and matched for a variety of uncomplicated yet polished ensembles. Examples include suits, smart blazers, V-neck sweaters, neat polo shirts, and crisp dress shirts. However, don’t worry that you’ll have to spend a fortune to dress this way. In fact, this brand strives to encompass all price points and, therefore, it's accessible to everyone. The message is clear: Buy the best you can afford and keep it classic, not trendy. But because it’s boring to keep wearing the same staples over and over, style icon Ralph Lauren has two strategies to help keep your look fresh: The first is that only one trendy item should be worn at a time and it should be paired with your standbys. For example, if you’d like to try wearing a bright hue, buy one boldly colored polo and ensure everything else you’re wearing has a simple shape and a subdued palette. Second, if you’re interested in trying out a popular new style, search for an approximation to a classic -- like this Rugby Wool Shawl Cardigan with rugby-inspired cuffs -- so it won’t quickly become dated. One last point: The Ralph Lauren lifestyle is an active one, so steer clear of apparel and accessories that look nice.

George Clooney - Style Icon

Why He's A Style Icon

George Clooney seemed to follow the latest trends in the 1980s, but something happened in the 1990s: He grew up and showed the world how a man should dress. The no-nonsense haircut replaced the floppy kid-next-door look and the clothes went monochromatic with the first Ocean’s film in 2001. Since then he has embodied an updated old-Hollywood style that everyone loves, with black suits for those formal events and gray chinos with white T-shirts for his downtime. His biggest contribution to fashion has been his bringing back of the suit as a fashion mainstay. While so many men fell victim to the idea that jeans are appropriate for every occasion, thanks to George Clooney, it suddenly became cool again to wear a suit. This worked because George Clooney pulled the look off without a tie, which appealed to men because it made them feel free. Also, his attitude of pretending not to notice how dapper he looked made it all the more appealing.

Dress The Clooney Way

Aside from the classic haircut (which George Clooney claims to cut himself), the black, white and gray colour scheme, his crisp white dress shirts sans tie, his sleek black oxfords, and those wraparound shades, George Clooney’s look is truly embodied by the dark charcoal suit. To swipe George Clooney’s classic style, find a charcoal suit with a modern cut, like this Banana Republic dark charcoal suit, and wear it with an open-collared shirt. Look for a suit with a three-button closure, a notch lapel, flap pockets at the hip, and a rear center vent. The trousers should be without pleats or cuffs; this gives the suit the kind of modern European look George Clooney likes to sport.

Tom Ford - Style Icon

Why He’s A Style Icon

Born in Texas with style in his blood -- his mother was a southern belle who believed strongly in dressing to the nines -- Tom Ford has become one of today’s most influential fashion designers; hence, he’s one of our style icons. Though he graduated from Parsons School of Design with a degree in interior architecture, Tom Ford’s studies provided him with a sense of proportion and a fondness for simplicity and clean lines that would later form his style when he entered the fashion world. After racking up some much needed fashion experience with a brief stint at Perry Ellis, Tom Ford made a bold move to Gucci, and a style icon was born. When Tom Ford signed on at Gucci, the company was on the verge of bankruptcy. The young designer saw an opportunity, however, and used it to propel his vision of style, quickly taking on other lines, including menswear. In a few short years, Tom Ford had resurrected the dying fashion house and single-handedly brought sexy back to the fashion world at large. His glamorous clothing, along with his sexually provocative fragrance campaigns, revolutionised the way brands marketed themselves. Never one to march to the beat of another’s drum, the marketing genius dramatically left Gucci in 2004, launching his own line, Tom Ford, in 2005 and winning the CFDA Menswear Designer of the Year award in 2008. As a testament to his status as a style icon, Tom Ford was commissioned to create Daniel Craig's wardrobe for Quantum of Solace, the latest addition to the James Bond franchise.

Dress The Ford Way

Finding Tom Ford products is getting progressively easier; in addition to the Tom Ford boutiques in NewYork,Toronto and Zurich, these coveted threads can now also be found in outlets in Milan, Moscow, San Paolo, Puerto Banus, and Osaka. Even if you have easy access to these clothes, it’s fair to say that prices at the Tom Ford boutique may be a tad out of the range of many men. Nevertheless, you can still pick up some valuable tips from this style master. First, the Tom Ford man is suave and sophisticated, yet he exudes a raw and masculine sex appeal. One surefire way to look smoking hot the Tom Ford way is to find a perfect-fitting dark suit, preferably bespoke if you can afford it, with strong shoulders, a tapered waist, lean legs, and a jacket that covers your butt.

Even more important than your suit, however, is that you project an air of assured confidence, meaning you need to feel comfortable in what you‘re wearing. The Tom Ford man is also a sensual being who prefers touchable fabrics that make getting dressed a pleasurable experience. The urban man whom Ford designs for is also not afraid to make a bold statement: leaving an extra button open on his dress shirt when suiting up for example, or throwing together patterns with a certain amount of irreverence. Last, but not least, to get the Tom Ford look, keep your accessories to a minimum. Wear only one or two simple, chic pieces at a time.
