Italian Men Dresses The Best!
I feel besides French men, Italian men rule when it comes to expressing sartorial styles, often injected with a slight surprise factor. Be it in colours (as seen in brightly hue pants with a classic mens coloured ensemble) or unusual combinations of 'clashing' styles that match (Blazers and camouflage shorts!) or dashing display of male debonair (classic double breasted jackets). I love to see those Italians in action in person someday soon!
Are you inspired?
(BTW, did you notice a common trend in almost all the pics? Anyone can tell me?)

ReplyDeleteitalian men are so stylish. and in a manly way. it's funny how some people comment that in Milan, women have to compete with men in the arena of fashion.
Agree with you, Nico!
ReplyDeleteThe common thread on all the pics...
ReplyDeleteBlue is the new black!:-P

ReplyDeletelove the way Italian men dress, they add personal style and quirkiness into their wardrobes. And from my experience, they have a thing about colored pants... especially red.
