Grant and Stewart

Cary Grant and Jimmy Stewart. Two classics in their old age. Father Time sucks. {A marvelous idea for a thread, BTW}

This is all Ralph Lauren, as have all of Woody Allen film since, maybe not classically elegant, but classic casual americana, probably what Ralph Lauren does best.

This epitomizes french style, then and now. I just found this tread and could probably post continually all day. This will be my last today.

I hope you come back often to contribute. Those were great posts. I was really into Godard for a while in my youth. His films really do feature great, classic, French styles.

Film influences style incredibly. Jumping to the other side of the forum, here are two films, both directed by the photographer Larry Clark. "Kids" completely influenced the sweatwear I used to wear in the end of nineties, and "Wassup Rockers" is still the first blip on the pop culture radar showing the shrunken fit of everything, especially skinny jeans. These were poor, I believe Guatemalan skaters in south central LA wearing the same clothes at 15 they wore when they were 6. No beautiful suits anywhere, but we'll get back to that. Just and interesting discussion of films influence on fashion and style.

Those were both very nice. Thank you. I especially liked Jimmy Stewart's suit. It's a shame you don't see that silhouette or style anymore.
