Description

Men are the in the dark about their clothes, that's not news. Few know how to dress well and there doesn't seem to be anyone they can look to for advice. Yesterday, young men learned about style from their fathers; today, no one really wants to dress lik his father. So who do men look up to? Whom do they admire and want to emulate? Is there a man who doesn't identify with the power and charisma of John Travolta, Sean Penn, or Steve McQueen? This book looks at the stars of the screen for common sense examples of how to dress comfortably and stylishly. From the sporting life to formal occasions, from macho tough guys to urbane sophisticates, nearly every social situation and character type has been portrayed on screen in an eye-catching way. A unique guide, Dressing In The Dark gives men practical advice about clothes and character, shedding light on the sartorial secrets of the most stylish stars from the twenties up to the present.
