In an online world of constant fit checks, an overwhelming array of options and influencers on @uniformdisplay that all kind of look the same (the baggy jeans plus Sambas Soho crowd in London has taken over our FYPs), it’s difficult to pinpoint where you want to stand with your style. Everyone struggles, especially in their twenties. You’re trying to figure out yourself – you’re in the transition into adulthood. Your frontal lobe has just reached its full capacity and your wardrobe is still some way off. It’s hard to find your style identity when you barely know who you are. But fear not, frie ..read more

As a brand founded on principles of elite high-performance sportswear suitable for sub-zero temperatures and the demands of professional athletes, it’s no wonder that Moncler prizes technical perfection and meticulous design even in its casualwear ranges. Leaving the slopes far behind, the brand’s latest collection is designed with an understated and effortlessly cool urban sensibility, nevertheless keeping practicality at the fore. Every piece considers its purpose with a utilitarian clear head, playing with innovative fabrics, texture and detail in a refined palette dotted with flashes of co ..read more

Mr TS Eliot had April down as the cruellest month. The point at which life returns and this whole mad venture begins anew. We wouldn’t be so bold, although we would venture that, somehow, 2024 feels like it only just got started and yet we’re already a third of the way in. And really there is no let-up from the perpetual cycle of menswear – we’re here all year, after all. However, there is a sense that, from this moment on, things ramp up. Big coats are peeled off and pops of colour appear in concert with the early blooms. April is when we remember that getting dressed is about more than outer ..read more

AMI PARIS has been around for 12 years, but the label already feels like an intrinsic part of the Parisian fashion landscape. Founded by Mr Alexandre Mattiussi, the label is shaped by its home city, taking the classic tropes of Paris – elegant, chic – and reworking them into wearable, everyday staples. Classic pieces are updated, often having a comfortable and understated feel that works as a uniform for anyone, anywhere ..read more

We’ve put together an edit of the most refined of suits and blazers. We’ve scoured the latest collections to source the best tailored trousers. And we’ve presented you with a selection of handcrafted shirts from some of our favourite brands. But if we’re taking the mantra “build your look from the ground up” literally, we also have to talk about shoes. Without further ado, here are the Oxfords, loafers and brogues you’ll need to take your formal looks to the next level ..read more

Has British prime minister Mr Rishi Sunak singlehandedly killed off the Samba? We’d argue that adidas’ signature soccer shoe has shown stupendous staying power over the past 75 years. So, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see it still kicking on in another 75 years (here, we’d make a case for Sunak putting more of an effort into those climate targets). And Ms Grace Wales Bonner, who has already done so much to raise the Samba’s stock, is clearly standing by the sneaker. See more on her course correction, plus more reissues and collabs from adidas and Nike, below ..read more

An island of outrageous natural beauty, hedonistic high-jinks and fizzing cosmic energy, Ibiza is a sun-washed assault on the senses. With its own unique groove and a slew of shiny new arrivals unbolting their doors this season, it’s somewhere best explored with a dash of insider know-how. Read on for our guide to its many, many pleasures ..read more

If we asked you to pick out the handful of items that you wear most often, we’d wager it wouldn’t take you too long to decide which they are. We all have those pieces that just work. They fit well, we know we look good in them and they can be paired with plenty of other things in our wardrobes. They’re reliable – comforting, even. Likewise, when it comes to shopping, there are likely brands and products that you gravitate towards – you know they work for you and that they make sense with your overall style ..read more

The Davids, possibly. Messrs Beckham and Gandy, naturally; Sir David Attenborough, for very different reasons. Then Ms Adriana Lima, more girls than guys, actually. And possibly Mr Anton Du Beke. Although that was mainly my mum. Outside of that incongruous cohort of the physically blessed and/or nationally treasured, I can’t think of an interviewee who’s aroused the same level of “interest” among friends and family as Mr Lucien Laviscount. “Are you sure you don’t need an assistant?” asked the wife/sister/brother-in-law/PR exec I had lunch with the day before. My wife’s never even seen Emily In ..read more

Every other year, in the last week of April, the worlds of arts and architecture convene in Venice for one of the city’s most important cultural events, Venice Biennale. Aside from bringing together the country’s high-society and the most respected names in classic and contemporary arts, as well as interior, landscape and urban design, the biennial exhibitions just so happen to round up an abundance of well-dressed men from around the globe, too. To celebrate the opening of the 60th art exhibition, we’ve sent a photographer to snap the best fits – see for yourself below ..read more
