The Sartorialist

Interesting layering. Can’t say that I love it. It’s a fine line between avant garde stylish and colourful hobo. It’s the eyes of the beholder I imagine. Geez, I hope this doesn’t come across as really mean. He’s obviously a great looking guy, but his sweater just looks itchy and I just don’t like this particular look.

Homeless?

The design of this guys blazer is very cool!

I wish I knew where i could get a blazer like this. Love this whole outfit so much!

Top gear doesn’t always have to be shiny and clean.

sorry, don’t get this, so totally sloppy. http://www.hotcelebration.com

The tattoo on his hand makes me believe is kind of bad**s even though the outfit is kind of bohemian…but I like it!

Hahahhaha he definitely has enough layers to keep himself warm!
Creative look :) visit my new blog

Most unusual! I am wondering what occasion he is dressed for. Walking to the gym? Going to work? Breakfast out? And I would love to see what he wears tomorrow and the next day, to see if this is a consistent aesthetic for him. Did he just throw this together, or is he thoughtful about dressing? Is he a fan of funky knits and jackets in general?

I have to love this look, just because it raises questions for me about the person in the clothes. I want style to be intriguing, personal, and right for the moment. This gentleman takes my brain in that direction.

this guy is perfectly parisian. i’d never successfully pull this look off here, but i’d take things from it like proportions or texture and try to incorporate it into what i wear.

I like how the nordic length of clothes is taking over the world!

many people say he’s cool, but I think you say that only because you see this photo published here! But if you saw this guy on a normal day walking around or in the underground you would really think that he’s homeless!

john looks cool

he’s really doin’ A LOT here to not have on somekind of undergarment beneath that open weave sweater – he looks a little cold. maybe another layer is hiding.

I really like the sweater & jacket combo… very striking.

axe the over-sized sweater and shorts and you have a truly inspired look! he has such a great build and that blazer fits beautifully well add the maroon pants and you have a great outfit!
*some times we try too hard to be “different”*

I was wondering if I am layering my clothes in tropical climate country like Indonesia. Heheh.

Love his style!

Somethings are better left for the runway.

Don’t know why but his head reminds me Stefano Pilati …

Hmmm, interesting. I do like the blazer though :-)

I’m sorry, it looks comfy etc but NO!

This is great. If this is what homeless looks like to someone they must be living in a pretty swanky hood. All of it works for me. The color, the line, the shape, the proportion. Different? Of course. We will see more and more indications of this still in mens wear moving forward.

Can’t say I am a fan of this style

The only part I don’t like is maybe “from the waist down” – trousers were enough imo. For the rest, simply perfect.

Amen Lolo. You summed it up very well.

He’s unique,however couldn’t say what he wants to achieve through this…Honestly,without the blue pants would be better!
p.s please if you’re cold in the winter do wear your coat!A coat fulfills a winter outfit!

I love the jacket, but the whole look is a bit ‘try hard’ for me.

Thisn guy is just HOT. I think he would look good in anything, even with what he’s wearing in that pic.

I don´t know it he´s cool or I don´t like this outfit. Perhaps I don´t like this look at all.

the lapel or flap or whatever that thing is…nope.

The iron gate and spikes juxtaposed to his confident stance punctuate, like exclamation points, his brave style. I can’t help noticing your use of background as a complement to your subjects’ fashion sense, and how it enhances the composition.

I love how much of debate this man can cause. Its modern, different and individual…isn’t that what style is all about? He works it. Minus the cancer stick x

Love the structure of the blazer and how far it come down

I love it and this strange outfit works for him somehow. A wonderful play of shapes.

Homeless? Out to get a carton of milk in his jammies. Ha — don’t think so. Try Damir Doma Jacket and crew neck sweater, Dries Van Noen Picard shorts and pants and Ann Demeulemeester sneakers. You can see it/buy it at http://www.ln-cc.com/men/icat/mens/. And if you have abou $3,500 you too can look like that. A little out of reach for most of the homeless even in Paris.

AWESOME. I check the Sartorialist all the time, but this is the first time I’ve felt moved to comment. So great to see a guy experimenting with chic! I think he should go further and replace the shorts with a skirt, a la McQueen.

For Paris is good. But not for the rest.

This look isn’t his at all, he took this exact look piece for piece from one of the style pictures of the guys on ln-cc.com.

Maybe with heels?

@ Simon–if you read the comments above you’ll see that this man is John Skelton, creative director of ln-cc. I think that makes the look pretty “his.”

John Skelton always rocks! I love his style and ln-cc.

Beautiful sexy guy. Anything will look cool on him.

even the guys are going all pigeon toed when they pose.. QUIT IT.
hate the messy beard look on hipster dudes.
hate the smoking on all these peeps..are you just taking photos
of the smokers that hang outside entrances?
just despise this sort of thing.
the fence is fabulous however.

Wow. This is stunning… Even though this kind of layering is rather uncommon, but I Love it! Great Outfit !!

I don’t buy it! I can appreciate the daring attempt, but it doesnt come together for me.

If you are this man ^ and you are reading this, inbox me so we can discuss what to put in our wedding menu. I mean, this look is showing such good taste I can’t even deal with it… I really like it.

I dig the blazer. Would love to get one for myself.

love the color combination. You could’ve made it real simlpe monochromatic but you manage to make it funky with the top, and still didnt overdo it! Kudos!Nora
