Elusiv Quick Fire Top Ten

 

1. Do the clothes make a man?

No. A man looks good when he is comfortable and confident in what he is
wearing.

2. Should men accessorise more and what can they do?

Yes yes oh yes! They have so many options to choose from: a great scarf,
a vest with a tie, a trilby or a cheesecutter, a manly bracelet, a smart
jacket with a pocket square, or a shirt and cravat for a change. Always
remember a man bag too. Make sure that your shoes are rotated (e.g.: not
worn everyday) and not more than 2 years old.

3. What item of clothing should men DEFINITELY have? (ie; good pair of shoes, good cut jeans...etc)

A well cut classic suit worn with beautiful fine shoes.

4. Name a very well dressed celebrity that always gets it right.

Tony Hadley - Lead singer from Spandau Ballet. I met him last year, he
was wearing a crisp white shirt with a beautiful dark classic suit, cut
to accentuate his strong shoulders and he looked incredibly HOT!

5. How can a man dress if he wants to look professional but still contemporary and funky?

A textured or coloured shirt, a smart blazer with jeans and current
shoes.

6. What is your favourite international menswear label and why?

Tom Ford - have you seen this man? He is style and confidence on legs.

7. Should there be more menswear on the catwalk?

Most definitely. It gives me inspiration.

8. Complete this sentence.... The kiwi male should dress ...

.......with more consideration that they are a present that we might
like to unwrap.

9. Are you a fan of layering and do you have any tips?

I like to see plaid, checks and velvet all teamed together perhaps with
a polka dot tie. Mix patterns and have fun with textures. Women are very
tactile creatures.
A thoughtful, well put together outfit definitely gets a man noticed.
