In celebration of the return of the super stylish Mad Men to our screens, Barack Obama's inaugural presidential address and Daniel Craig's appearance at the Bafta's, here is a picture of the three gentlemen doing what they do extremely well. That is, wearing a suit. Why is a suit so flattering for a man? We now know that in time of recession people feel the need to smarten up. Why is that?
Alan Flusser in his book "Dressing the man" gives us his insight:
"If a man runs for president, interviews for a high-level job, or needs a good table at a smart restaurant, chances are he'll be wearing a suit. The tailored jacket with matching trousers remains the uniform of official power, suggesting civility, diplomacy, and physical self-control. Suits have a way of looking superior."These three gentlemen seem to understand that perfectly.
