If you look up the term “Captain of Industry”, Terry Lundgren ,CEO of Federated, should be pictured. He just looks like someone that should be running something, I think it is the hair. This was at the cocktail party at Esquire new offices the other day – Terry Lundgren actually looks like the guys in those old Esquire illustrations from the 30′s and 40″s. I bet he would have been drawn looking at architectural sketches with a few of his co-workers while smoking and taking practice putts in the office.

Oh dear. I am swooning; I swear I can smell his cologne; creed for men? gray flannel? The minutae of his look clearly embodying years of fierceness, nice…VERY nice

I expected the CEO of Federated to look a lot heavier, fatter, and weathered. What a good surprise.

Would sure be interested in his shoes and the break in his pants. Ditto re the serious work on the pocket square.
Minor things aside, what a super appearance.

That’s my boss!
Terry is a sharp character indeed. He is also very approchable and has true hope and enthusiasm for the future of department stores, though most others see them as aging dinosaurs.

Definately has got that “I’ve been in the ivory tower and made some critical decisions” look.
I wish you could have done twenty questions with him.

Perfectly put together; stunning, actually. As well-dressed as he is handsome. And most important of all: effortlessly so. Love the suit (perfect lapels) and its fit on him. Love the combination of color and texture. If one were to pick nits (from biggest to smallest IMHO): dimple-less knot; don’t like the flat gap in his collar; and, yes, his pocket square needs a little tug. But so what? These nits are too small to affect his commanding and sartorial presence. He reminds me of a living designer’s sketch; Esquire magazine in the 50s.
