The Sartorialist

The first one is a slim fit tee, yo ucan find them anywhere in Europe, got a purple one from Zara the other day. The second one is soooo cleverly draped!

He wears it much better than she…

Nice and Fresh

Basic white tee fits everything.

white tees rule. always. and. forever.

I don’t think I really like Muscles Magee, on the top. He looks too James Dean-ish. I men’s trousers on the young lady, below, though. It’s cute. Is she wearing a head band?

In both pictures, the trousers are more remarkable than the tee

if done stylishly, as both of these are, you don’t look like my dad mowing the lawn. bravo to both.

What is Jorge talking about? She doesn’t have any chest hair!

No wardrobe should ever be without one of these! Sean John (believe it or not) makes a GREAT version … high quality cotton, slim in the midsection, tapered at the sleeve, and comes three to a pack … im wearing one under my biker jacket now :-)

The girls outfit is so perfect, love it, black and white and nothing more. Simple and stylish!

Your boyfriend’s back and there’s gonna be trouble…

He’s hot

both their outfits are so simple but it’s that sense of confidence they’re exuding that really makes their look. especially the girl. she seems so effortlessly well put-together.

I’ve always seen that as the point of wearing a white t-shirt (or a white button-down.) The simplicity allows the other elements of your outfit and you accessories to stand out more. I agree with Dan in Richmond that the watch is a pivotal part of his look. The sunglasses (Persol I believe) serve the same purpose. In both photos they demonstrate an ability to use a classic piece to build a great look. Well done Sart.

the first one is pretty hot. OMFG. someone knows him? ;)

is he rockin the persol or tom ford shades? they look kind of like my tom ford’s but the bridge makes me think they might be persol.

she looks effortless, i think it works. i’m not sure that it’s such a good thing on him… maybe less of the ‘gun show’ and a more of an understated fit on the guy. not diggin it with those pants, is that wrong?

I hope this comment is not too racy. What makes the look for the woman is the hint of nipple. It changes the look from sweet to sexy.
Scott, I apologize if you feel this comment is inappropriate.

That’s odd; just this morning in college I was envying a girl who had on a very similar pair of pinstriped trousers. She kind of resembled the girl in the picture too. Paired with the white T-shirt it looks great – smart and simple but also fresh and interesting.

I’m not altogether keen on the guy’s outfit, though – just a little too tight IMHO, it comes across as kind of narcissistic rather than effortless.

very clean nice look

But the whole point of the entry is the tailored tee and not the other pieces of clothing/accesories on them, isn’t it?

That top look is classic Brando, right down to the slightly high waisted cut of the trousers. For the film version of Streetcar Named Desire they altered a shirt and shrank it to his form before shooting- they did not manufacture fitted tees at the time.

Her windblown hair is lovely. She makes the pants look adorable.

ohhh, the girl is so perfect!

The beautiful young lady and handsome gentleman are both spectacular looking in their sleek white tees. It’s their very presence that draws me in– not what they’re wearing: You can’t hide behind the stark simplicity of a white tee. Nothing to do with fashion, just pure style and confidence.

And your composition is awesome sir! Your uncanny ability to capture that one perfect fleeting moment in time that defines the your subject’s style is always inspiring.

Thanks for sharing,

Adore the girl with the pleated pants! Love how she looks so relaxed and comfortable.

less is more.

i love it.

I just LOVE these photos! I really like the simple look and a great fitting white t-shirt is one of my favorite staples!

Great simple look the bright white give a great look to the outfits.

maybe there are some jealous guys posting that his shirt is too small?

maybe…you have a large gut that would make you look like a oompa loompa if you wore something similar?

Hers was lovely. So fresh and so clean. Simple yet elegant.

really love that clean and fresh look of the girl…she looks so cute and somehow undramatically beautiful.very natural also as her hais looks so healthy and unstyled and i can’t recognise make-up…

To anonymous, 5:17PM -

Aw, as soon as I hit ‘Publish’ I knew someone was going to say that! I personally tend to think of narcissism as being a negative attribute applying to one’s whole personality rather than aesthetic vanity, and very different to simply wanting to look good or being into fashion.
Anyway, it was a harsh choice of wording; I was just trying to imply that I thought it looked overtly self-conscious, but looking back, he does actually look really good – it commands attention, rather than seeking it as I had previously thought.

Is that the guy you shot ages ago, wearing the polo with high side vents… he was wearing something similar to this photo. It suits him well…

Im actually rather bored of the white “let me pretend I dont care how I look” tee, specially if you carry your blazer like that. Just simply dull

People, People, c’mon! they both look great!

i love her trousers and slouchy tee

Yet another example that effortless ‘cool’ can be translated flawlessly via a simple white t-shirt.

love her look – the hair esp. i want the trousers -any ideas where from? also wondering what kind of shoes she was wearing? suggestions?

That man is o so very charming.

i really like the white t-shirt look. you cant beat it with a pair of great raw jeans. classic 50′s america thing.
