The way a man dresses says a lot about him much more than he might realize.
(An embarrassment of riches, if you will.)
Each of them tells a story through the clothing he wears, whether he knows it or not.
Logan Roy,Succession
Logan Roy wears some of my favorite clothes on television.
He is not a modern man like Roman or Kendall.
Hes classic, slightly indicative of eras past, but with serious staying power.
It looks polished, but casual and it ties his leisure look together with maturity.
But what I was missing was Dwayne Johnsons magnetic bravado.
When you see this costuming in motion onscreen, it just works.
Maybe I just have a crush on the Rock, but then again, who doesnt?
That being said, I gotta talk about the fit of his jackets.
But what is that gap between the back of his shirt collar and his jacket?
A character with so much money and apparent affinity for style should not have this problem.
His reliance on family money allows him to live a frivolous life detached from reality.
This wardrobe is a real dont try this at home situation.
You need a lot and I meana lot to go right to pull it off without looking catastrophically tasteless.
Kendall has a slight build (probably a 38) and a narrow, oval face.
And that is, of course, exactly who Kendall Roy is in that moment.
It reveals what a novice he is.
Occasionally they look disheveled, but usually he looks pretty damn sharp.
When they do, it is the only thing I can see on the screen.
Chuck is usually adorned in a mishmash of three-piece suits (which, for the record, fit well!
He is probably a 42) with pinstripes, spread collars, and silk ties.
He dresses the way Daddy Warbucks would if he went to work as an attorney general.
If an inanimate object could be described as bloviating, I would call Chucks suits bloviating.
Every effort Chuck makes to look wealthy and powerful, Axe shirks.
and in doing so they say, Im someone to look at.
His cashmere hoodies are worn to show us that he has nothing to prove.
He does not have to wear anything obviously flashy or obviously indicative of wealth because heiswealth.
Johnny Rose,Schitts Creek
Schitts Creekhas perhaps themost sublime costuming on television.
When putting together a suit, men have a couple of choices of where to add flair.
What makes Johnny one of the best-dressed men on television is how he nails this delicate balance.
Reddington is an impeccably dressed man whose style I would describe as opulent chaos contained.
But for a fugitive with bottomless financial resources, it suits Reddington just right.
And to be clear, I consider the choice to wear a pocket watch an ethical one.
Most of his style choices are traditional, with the occasional outlier.
His clothing is pristine everything from his formal wear to his Barbour coats exudes easy luxury.
