How to be a stylish off-duty gentleman
Some carefully chosen accessories can speak volumes in a gentleman’s casual attire.
< 1 min
A gentleman’s wardrobe should be held up by certain pillars: perfectly cut—preferably bespoke—suiting in classic shades, pinstripes and checks; fine cotton shirting; silk ties and polished shoes; a wool coat for inclement days.
But increasingly, as casual attire creeps in even to work days, how does he showcase his sartorial status without appearing like an albacore out of water?
WATCH THIS SPACE
A classic timepiece is the ultimate investment piece for any gentleman. Whether you prefer the feel of a leather strap or the weight of articulated steel around your wrist, choose a design that speaks to timeless elegance and masculinity.
Houses such as Longines, Rolex, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Cartier and more will keep you on time and always in style. For a piece that is James Bond-approved—may we suggest an Omega Seamaster to add some depth to your style?
A SHADED VIEW
Take the edge off the day’s glare with some chic sunglasses. Look for styles that hark back to the gentlemen of the Golden Age of Hollywood, such as classic aviators, Wayfarers or those with a keyhole bridge/ Keep the frames in neutral hues such as tortoiseshell, black, tan or metal finishes. The future’s bright—and you’ll be cool.
POCKET THIS
The simplest way to add a fanciful flourish to any look is with a pocket square tucked into your blazer pocket. There are many ways to style them, from a peeking line of fabric to an origami-folded extravaganza.
But should you find yourself in need of a quick fix, even a small puff of silk or a wildly stuffed kerchief will offer a dash of flair.
