On the Street....Time Warp, Florence
I feel like if this was shot in black and white it could be an image from the 1930's.

post a commentthis picture takes my breath away...lovely!
...except for the hair. that saves it from being costumey, lends it a little currency. lovely jacket, too.
It could be... Even if I would guess that his cell phone is in his pant's pocket -or perhaps it is just a lighter-... I love everything about that jacket.
Sartorialist - if your site does anything, it sharpens everyones'
visual perception. This can be in B/W from the 30s, but how do you explain the filtered cig, much less the Range Rover.... the Lear Jet in the upper left. Rite on Sart.
I totally agree with you Sart! Why don't you convert the image to b&w and post it?
The hat, book, jacket and cigarette(yes I'm being politically incorrect) make this look.
sure... range rovers were so much cooler back then...
Great jacket! Good shot, Sart, real, elegant people!
luv that patches hat...and yess it will looks like 1930's if u got it black & white...
nice

Wonderful shot. What a gorgeous, gorgeous face.
it could be from the 1930's but he would still look stupid then
My god he's beautiful. I want him for Valentine's Day!
I think it could also be 1966, Sart.
Lovely.

beautiful fit on the jacket!! i personally like my sleeves a tiny bit longer, but cropped-a-little-short is in for men's jackets these days i know.
an average suit store will tell you the bottom of the coat should hit where your fingers meet the palm of your hand.
i dig this (jacket) look, though.
He could've gone without the hat and this would still be a strong look. This is just awesome. I wonder what he had on his feet...
kind of reminds me of brando
So hot! But lose the smoke!
Love Everything, simple is good!
Wow. What a cool hat, and a lovely coat, and such poise. A well groomed man is always something to be appreciated.
Great look apart from the stupid, for lack of no better term, hat. I have to disagree with it looking retro though.
The dark shirt? The finely patterned jacket? Tight pants? The loose hair?
Very contemporary.
Just so classic. Love it.
Everything looks impeccable.
Well, I like the Zegna jacket fo' sho'... but, even under today's standards, it should at least cover your butt. I believe if you were to look at him from behind, half of it would be left out.
I think jacket pockets are meant to be used, but daaaamn kiddo!!!
Love it!
that is definitely a wonderful shot and beautiful outfit. i wish i were grand enough to be worthy of being captured by your photo lens.
The jacket + the cigarette really make this look. It's an example of accessories legitimizing an over-sized hat.
THIS IS GREAT...I REALLY LOVE HIS LOOK. SO DIFFERENT.
I think Mike Damone wore this same outfit in Fast Times...
Could be the most beautiful jacket I have ever seen...
He with the sad, sad eyes...
Maybe you ought to play with the levels until it "looks" black-and-white, and repost it?
It's a great photo.
Let's do the time warp again...
I'm not sure if it would be 1930's. Maybe if he looses his cigarette. I guess, they smoked fags without filters at that time;-)And he would have definitely shorter hair. Anyway let's leave travel in time behind. He simply looks cute.
When you look for vintage clothes, this is the way.
Excellente jacket, really excellente!
This is what you call a cupid bow mouth. Happy Valentine's day!
Austin makes a good point on the coat bottom length, it's shorter than what's recommend, but I like it...makes him look taller. In fact, scroll down the blog and look at the suit/jacket/sweater bottoms that fall at the guy's wrist they all look taller (longer legs) I prefer this proportion to the recommened one we see on Mr Barbera (though don't get me wrong, he still looks good, but he looks like he's half top half bottom).
Would the guy's butt be sticking out a little from behind...maybe, but my girlfriend says she likes being able to see mine.
Really cute
Not many could get away with that hat but it suits him. I like his look.
Funny, my no.1 rule when buying clothes is "Would this item look out of place in a 1940's (or earlier) street scene photograph?" No big logos, natural colours, classic tailoring and cuts. Great photo.
He is absolutely beautiful!! Love everything!
The jacket is pure awesome--though a little too short, right?
The cigarett is cool, but his receding gums won't be in a couple of years.
It's the hat I like best in the picture even though I don't especially like the hat itself. Maybe it pops out at me because the jacket is so simple. He's lovely. I don't think he knows it, which of course makes it better.
Easy and debonair. Very very nice. I want to place his head in my lap, play with his hair and read that book to him beneath a shade tree.
The hat, the hair, the eyes, the book, and the smoke (and I'm a vehement nonsmoker)--a young scholar off to read and think. Just perfect.
Or still Florence in sixteen something, Renaissance! With his cap and face... Eternal beautiful Italy.
...it could be an image from the 1930's....
true, maybe an August Sander portrait
...apart from the Range Rover in the background.
this photo only shows that good fashion is timeless.
he's just adorable. i could look at this picture for hours.
I want to make wild love to his hat.
Speaking on behalf of straight men eveywhere...I can only pray he's gay. Then it would be fair he looked like that.
30s meet 70s!! love it!
What a unique, yet classic look! The hat accentuates the gentleman's hair.
I've looked at a lot of photos, and their all so simple, yet they all have something vast about them. Their all so sharp and clean, and their "street" people which makes all of these pictures very unique. I like this picture the most because it's a simple man, wearing a simple everyday outfit, yet with a good angle this shot becomes what you might see on the cover of a modeling magazine.
I like everything. Even the hat. This is another example of how to mix pieces and make them all look JUST right.
Note: the guy is gorgeous and probably intelligent (unless the book is also an accessory LOL).
CRISTINA
How beautiful. Stepped right out of 'Boy with Vase of Roses' by Caravaggio. He could have modeled for several...
It is his attitude, the slightly up-tilted chin that makes him rock this look - as if he's daring you not to like the hat. Which by the way I DON'T. But if you have to see it, better on that head...
How I envy you, Sart!
Sussurro
It's not just his clothes that are good looking...
What a beautiful pic. He looks so relaxed, so perfect... Indeed he could have come straight from the 1930s... perfect
