An Ode To Mr. Astaire, From Paul Stuart

If you haven't seen a Fred Astaire film lately, you really should look into catching one on Turner Classics. Astaire has been known for his sartorial panache since his 1933 film debut, Dancing Lady.
 His effortless elegance is something to emulate, and this season Paul Stuart brings a custom collection that is inspired by the legendary actor. Swank...pure swank.

A vintage print pocket square adds just enough throwback to a look that is still fresh in 2012.

“I’m putting on my top hat,

Tying up my white tie,

Brushing off my tails.

I’m duding up my shirtfront,

Putting in the shirt studs,

Polishing my nails…”

Note the tie bar placement, Mr. A always wore his low.
