Comments on "On the Street......Business Class, Paris & Milan"
Now he looks comfortable.
dapper, indeed. also love his grin.
Each picture has a certain freshness about it. He looks like he is full of life!
maybe it's the way he is posturing but the double-breasted jacket looks too tight on him
Two different looks by changing jacket and tie in the airport waiting room. Well done, sir. And where did you get the turtleneck? I want it.
Nice colors in the last one, really like the color of the jacket.
Robert Polet is very chic that's true. It was pretty funny that he had only dealt with Frozen Food (at Unilever) before he comes to Gucci... But he definitely looked the part... People may not like what he did with Gucci but it is a good job in financial terms anyway.
His choice of colors is great - why doesn´t his smile reach his eyes?
Truly nice clothing makes people happy...naturally.
That DB does not look very well fitting.
bellissimo!!!! elegante sportivo...ma tanta classe
I think there are so many cliches associated with tweed (college professor, staid Brit, etc) that whenever one wears it you have to go either truly traditional (and further the cliches) or wear it with innovative pieces and, to paraphrase Paula Abdul, make it your own!!! For the bottom picture, I believe he does neither, but I bet he is warm! Love the pic on the top. Jorge from WPB
Something about him is funny and elegant at the same time, disconcerting....
Another inside job ! This is Robert Polet , CEO of Gucci .
This clothing could have made him look like he was trying way to hard, the blazer, turtle neck, AND a cup of tea? But its the grin of self knowledge combined with fun that lets him pull it off so well.
He is the very definition of dapper. He rocks the tweedy look quite nicely.
What a smile!:D
I want to buy a navy suit (although a single breasted one) but they're almost always pinstripe.
I hope he got a bonus this year.
6/10. pocket squares have met their end. however, i appreciate the extra fabric in his jacket. comfortable is the new perfect fitting.
See how his clothes fit? Snug and smooth agains his body? See how none of the buttons strain, the sleeve inset seam rests on the point of his shoulder, the jacket cuffs end just beyond his wrists. He uses many colors and some layers to create texture and interest. If his pants cuff above his ankles, I will be so disappointed. But, I bet his socks are little peeps of surprise.
Thank you, and well done.
Jack Lemmon chic. I bet he's just a cute when he's rumpled.
my friend I doubt that is a cup of tea, rather it is most likely an espresso (un caffe)
What an elegant man - with a smile like that he will disarm even the fashionistas.
Hello, gorgeous!
Dapper indeed. Awesome work
Mr Polet.... Like the expression in his face matching to each outfit! Business. Casual. Great to see the difference. Very congenial.
PS. Have a nice and sunny weekend!! :)
The two looks are very different and say different things about him, but they both suit him perfectly. I suspect he is very interesting.
Old classic!!Great that he is smiling!!
What Colin Firth will look like one day. Charming!
A full sized gentleman in well proportioned clothing showning 2 sides to his personality with reference to each city.Man maketh the clothes not the other way round
This gentleman makes me smile. He's so bright-eyed! When a person like that smiles at you, you can't help but smile back. :-) I like the outfit in the second photo, great color combination.
Not crazy about the turtleneck.
His smile is 100% class.
he tickles me. quality, approachable clothing.
i love his smile!
So what if he IS Robert Polet. People that run companies can have style too. What gets me in these photographs is the CHARM that eminates through the lens. His smile makes me want to smile back. He smiles with his eyes. It is a wonderful thing to capture. Thanks sart.
adorable! he looks like a mix between colin firth and george hw bush
lovely smile!
he's so cute, i love him!!
clothing aside, his smile would cheer anyone up, as a garden gnome would likely do - say as a garden statement in a bed of daisy of delphinium...
smart, handsome, great casual look with the turtleneck
He looks so adorable in that second picture!
he's so adorable! love his smile! <3
two styles that make me think about Marlon Brando and the last tango in Paris...
He's wearing a great smile!
The gentleman in the dark blue suit is very Cary Grant-elegant. Can I marry this handsome man? (Just kidding.)
Inspiring in a different way- looking comfortable and composed in any situation. My shirt cuffs never show when I wear a knit shirt or sweater with a jacket- reassuring to see that his don't, either.
He looks like a very kind man.
Very adorable man. Looks very comfortable and friendly. looking very sharp! Like his dress sense - the combination of casual with elegant. And of course the italian espresso in his hands does really make the difference!
Oh my goodness. In the first picture, he looks like an older version of Colin Firth!
Very nice !--Id love to see his shoes and socks ! :-)
AW he's so cute look at his face! He seems so sweet! Top outfit is very sharp, bottom one is equally so. He reminds me of Franklin the Turtle with the turtleneck and smile :D
Even above the clothes and the pose he has to maintain, a real happy man. I don’t know his life, I don implicate complete satisfaction, I´m writing only about that victory implicated in be able to smile to photographers whit out no sign of hesitation.
I love it, he looks so friendly. I want to meet him on the street.
I love smart suits such as these, so fresh yet original, i wish more men would look this sophisticated.
Ahh... this look easily could be found if u surf the web for 5 minutes everyday.
However, the "holding a cup gently" pose really matches with what he's wearing now. Green + coffee = Comfort
what a smile!
I don't understand the second image, it looks rather generic and the look on his face is a bit creepy.
I love his sheepish grin. He reminds me of Jack Lemmon.
great, like an english!
What I love with this man is simple: He's appropriate for himself, his position and his age.
No logos screaming at me. No awful too short pants. No "look at how fashionable I am" false details and NO cigarette!
AND he has happy eyes, his most important detail.
Wow...so much texture in that blazer and sweater. Very classic looking.

What a delightfully happy little face he has! Charming.
He looks so happy! A nice espresso...there couldn't be a better accessory!
Today I met this site and I'm impressed.

Love that second one. Classy.
Scott, I contacted you when I was finishing a book cover portrait, trying to find an image of a man in a double breasted jacket. THERE WERE NONE. Now, they seem to have sprung up everywhere. Serendipity.
Now, at least I know my fictional subject will be in sartorial style.
Best regards, Marigail
Besides a very elegant businessman, he definitely is a happy guy. That makes his outfit much-much better!
Is he jack lemmon?
I like the suit picture, although a gentleman never puts his hands in his pockets.
The second picture is too "gauche-caviar" for my taste.
This world needs more people, whether in a superb jacket or a NASCAR T-shirt, with a kind smile. Bless him.
other than the joker smile....he looks good.
This gentleman has been added to my "damp towel" list... his clothes are dropdead in both shots, but he could make a damp towel look chic. Anything he wears plays second to that face. His expression is so warm and genuine and charming. I can't say if he'd shake my hand or kiss it, but I am certain either one would make me weak in the knees.
I'm so glad to see 2 other commenters see the resemblance to Jack Lemmon.
seeing his grin i would like to give him a hug
Such a happy face!
This guy has the greatest smile. :D And the choice of camel and subdued green is impeccable. Love how how you caught him mid-tea. ^^
I'm not the slightest unhappy to see a confident well dressed man..I was getting a tiny weeny bit tired of (mostly) black clad dudes.
hey lookit
he's smiling!
Looks very American
He just looks so friendly! Warmth is emanating from this photo.... (giggle)
