“On the gravest days of winter I put on my gray flannels, a cashmere tie in a sober color and my white linen jacket. The pants keep me warm. The tie gains me entrée into good restaurants. The blazer reminds me that summer will come again.” — Luciano Barbera

Last time Fonzworth Bentley was going to put out an album (it was called C.O.L.O.U.R.S. - Cool Outrageous Lovers of Uniquely Raw Style), he was working with Sa-Ra Creative Partners, some of the fly-est guys I’ve ever met.  Hopefully this record will actually come out.  Not so much for the music (which is fine), as for the chance to see one of America’s greatest dandies on camera some more.

I wouldn’t say these are his greatest outings - I particularly dislike the red jacket - but the velvet dinner jacket is pretty great.  Certainly shows the surprising versatility of a pair of white jeans.

“A man should own as many shirts as he wishes - the more the better. I personally have so many shirts that I sometimes walk into my closet, pull one out, and think to myself, “Now where did that come from?” Having lots of shirts will allow you to surprise yourself with your own good taste.” — Luciano Barbera

(via thisisnotnew) The Louis Vuitton Don’s taste is a little more designer-y than mine, but he almost always pulls it off with aplomb.  There are those who are always looking for what he’s doing wrong; I am not one of those people. He looks absolutely wonderful here.  Like a graceful advertisement for America.
