Tommy Ton from Jak & Jil shows his skills at capturing the most stylish gents at Milan Fashion Week.
Giving me plenty of ideas of what I hope I'll look like when I'm older. This guy is the bomb in my eyes.
Briefcase as a makeshift backpack, note the super mustard trousers too.
Brilliant without that tattoo, even better with.
Oh, would you look who is it! It's Steve from Style Salvage rocking the double gingham and his prized shoes.
Denim shirt worn smart with a db wool blazer. Key point, glasses backwards in the pocket.
This chap reminds me of Jeff Goldbloom in Jurassic Park, we're all up for a bit a "nu-safari" right?
It's not only the girls that are nailing the combat pants at the mo. Also, freaking love the suede driving shoes, a pair is high on my wish list.So much inspiration for us chaps. Be interesting to hear from both girls and boys about your thoughts on the pictures though, nice to hear both sides.
You can see more from his snaps at Milan here
Great pics, i bet they were taken at Pitti. Must be the place to be these days...

haha, that first man is awesome for sure!
ReplyDeleteTommy's work for GQ has been very inspiring indeed. Makes me feel totes inferior in comparison! Those combat pants are so 90's and over, they're fresh again.
ReplyDeletegreat pictures!
ReplyDeleteAhh, the little details are so important. Fabulous pics from Jak&Jill. Love the purple blazer and CANNOT BELIEVE that I threw away a pair of orange suede driving shoes recently. How chic would they be in Milan???

ah great inspiration, i love the satchel & blue shoes. the fourth double gingham shot is fantastic...looking at mens street style/fashion makes me wanna be a guy sometimes! haha
ReplyDeleteah, thats a shame about blackpool i was hoping you'd say there were some hidden gems in the town worth visiting. i know lytham too, went for a job interview there when it was snowing! although i was a little confused about whether it was lytham/st annes or lytham st annes!

I don't know what it is about the shoes where you can see a man's bare foot: they just scream class, to me, bizarrely.
ReplyDeletethe guy in the first image is just great. when im old i hope to dress that cool.
ReplyDeleteThese gents look so sophisticated, but as if they don't take themselves too seriously. I especially love the backpack, have fun in Liverpewwwwwwl

Double gingham gets my thumbs up! Also, I kinda want to steal those purple loafers for myself...in quite a few sizes smaller though

That first guy is amazing, loving the colours. And I was oddly drawn to the guy that was wearing shoes barefoot but had wrapped his ankles. May have to give that one a go.
