i think the socks are great. and the trouser-like cuffs on the jeans…this could have been a total disaster and he pulled it off great. here is proof that style is less about what you're wearing and more about how you wear it.
Javi C. I like the width of the neck of the shirt, the buttons of the opened fists(handles) and the handkerchief(scarf) of the jacket. It(He,She) should put on a few "PINKIS", in Spain there are called this way a few cacetines that only cover the foot and are not seen over the shoe, for the summer they are fantastic.
I wonder how much time He thought about the socks.. should I? shouldn't I? I personaly wish I chose to wear socks today because my feet kill and smell all at the same time. Mr. Ricci is a smarter man than I.
done to perfection, i really like the look, i would wear it every day! Tight and short jacket with neapolitan shoulder, and light (maybe suede) brogues, thats my uniform!
He looks just too refreshing! I love his entire look. I need to find shoes like his! I need to so bad! I like his blazer being a slim fit and the lapels being over sized. check out my trendy blog! http://thetrendydwarf.blogspot.com/
I LOVE that he is wearing the little socks! It says that he doesn't want blisters and smelly feet. Why are people so bothered by seeing socks on men? Do you really like to look at their ankles that much?
Oh dear, such a gorgeous looking man but I do have my concerns about the selection of shoes and girlie sox! Cuffed jeans are an interesting concept. SiggiM
Beautifully tailored db jacket, can never go wrong with blue and white. Miss the mark on the socks and a leather strapped watch would add a dash of color/interest. Nothing beats a well worn pair of white bucks in the summer!
What a coincidence! I just wrote about brogues on my blog! The open neckline, light washed denim, and cream colored shoes are light and summery. Everything is crisp and clean and it's far from oppressive. There have been some comments about his socks, but he pulls it off rather nicely. Great look!
I have the same shoes (Brimarts)… Got them thrown-in free (honest !) when buying 2 rather expensive pairs for my wife in southern Italy couple of months ago… And I wear them with similar, but lower cut socks… which probably officialy makes me cool :-)
Personally, I'm not much for the socks, but going without socks wouldn’t be especially comfortable. My suggestion would be to wear a pair of really thin cotton sock in a very light blue matching the colour of the jeans.
I love the socks. You have to be a very selfconfidence gentleman to wear that kind of socks. The evidence is almost no one here likes them, despite the smart and confortable they are.
Normally I'm against the sock movement but here for some reason just works. So does the light trouser. Maybe it's the angle at which he's sitting.
To everyone who thinks that if they see no socks, that we are not wearing socks: Some do actually "go sockless" but there are something called peds, to protect your shoes and keep you looking ahead of the curve. No need to get so sticky about it.
As with belts socks are difficult waters to navigate. Hence the popularity of no-sock look during this tight line and high water hems. This man's choice makes the socks look like underwear riding up than the accessory they could have been.

He needs to score some trouser socks from Banana Republic, no ones sees them peeking out of your shoes.

I don't know about Italians being the best dressed on the Planet as the socks might challenge that notion as a master narrative.
However, I wonder why he didn't consider a thin, summer weight sock if he felt that he needed to have socks on at all.
