How to Dress like a Fashion Icon
A combination of individualism and impeccable style set these famous men apart from the rest, cementing their reputations as tastemakers of their respective eras. These icons' influence transcends time.
They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and while we all have our own personal styles, it might not be a bad idea to emulate some of these legends if we are looking for a tried-and-true style.
James Bond
From Sean Connery to Daniel Craig, Bond’s style has always been the epitome of suave: a slim-fitting, tailored suit, topped off with a silk tie, pocket square, and a martini (shaken not stirred, obviously). Take a page from the super-spy’s fashion book and turn heads.
Gordon Gekko
Just because Gekko was a symbol of greed doesn’t mean he didn’t have great style. A nicely-tailored pin-stripe suit paired with suspenders and a tie will have you looking like a Wall Street regular. What you do in this outfit is up to you.
Steve McQueen
The “King of Cool” always had an element of toughness to his style. To achieve his look, go for khaki pants and a knit sweater. If you’re in the mood for something a bit more rugged, finish the look with a leather jacket.
Andre 3000
A pioneer of patterns, the loudly-dressed half of hip-hop duo Outkast was one of the first men to experiment with outrageous colors and designs. Never afraid to express himself through his clothing, Andre combines personal flare with casual attire.
Brightly colored jeans, a creatively patterned shirt, and a fashionable hat will certainly wow your audience.
Johnny Depp
Johnny Depp adopts a casual, yet modern style. For this look you’re going to need a pair of well-fitting jeans, and a vest to wear over a button-down shirt.
Justin Timberlake
The one time boy-band front man has undergone a transformation over the past 5 years. With the release of his 2013 hit, “Suit and Tie,” Timberlake officially made classy cool. While JT’s look isn’t complicated, it’s always in style. A tuxedo with a white button-up shirt and a bowtie will never go out of style.
Pharrell Williams
Not only has Pharrell made his mark as one of the most influential people in modern music, but he is also a trendsetter in the fashion world. He always looks to push the envelope of what is popular with a style that is defined by slim-fitting, vibrantly colored shirts and sweaters.
While we encourage you to define your own fashion sense, there’s nothing wrong with experimenting with a few of these iconic styles to see which one suits you best.
