Back In Black

Channelling his own brand of rock and roll with this spiffy, all-black getup, Nigel commands an air of poise and confidence. A play of contrasting colours, textures and materials, it is the way he pairs various elements of his look that’s interesting. A two-toned tie sporting a houndstooth pattern sits alongside the smaller checks of his shirt, creating a juxtaposition of patterns, while a floral lapel pin lends a softness to the stark blacks of his jacket. Opting for an interesting length of pants, and pairing it with socks of the same colour, the man manages to gently subvert from the usual suited looks to create a formal ensemble that’s equally high on style and personal expression. A luxuriously crafted bag and classic round-toe boots complete the look. The man will not be caught dead in a polo tee, if anything.
