So I don't often do men's fashion, but I thought I would stick with my previous theme and do some male fashion icons of mine from back then also.
Best known for his acting role in Citizen Kane, Orson Welles was also a director and a screenwriter. He had an impeccable style during the 40s and 50s. With his pipe in hand, his visual style translated into his clothing.Being married to Lauren Bacall had its perks, but Humphrey Bogart was all his own when it came to style. Wearing a fedora and a trenchcoat in a lot of his movies made the women swoon in the 20s, 30s, and 40s! Born in England, Cary Grant already succeeded in being a daper and stylish kind-of man. But when he came to the U.S., he starred in several movies that had him in polished suits and ties and it made it even more evident. I find his best style came to casual clothing though, like this one, maybe that's why he was considered one of the sexiest men of his time. He could pull of anything. Most popular in 1940s and 1960s, Gregory Peck played several important roles. Also known as the 12th 'Greatest Male Star of All Time', he had a great fashion sense. Wearing clothing that was up-to-date and classy.Known as ol' blue eyes, Frank Sinatra carved his way into the music and acting scene during the swing era. A founding member of the Rat Pack, Frank always wore stylish clothing. Whether it was a fedora, or just a sleek suit, you could always count on him to bring it while performing.Marlon Brando was most known for his role in 'A Streetcar Named Desire', but he had a significant impact on acting during the 40s and 50s. Also known for being a 'bad boy' on screen, he wore classic white T's with leather jackets, and suits that were popular in his heyday. You see a lot of that even today.
