Can't explain why, but a number of people involved deeply in fashion often look bad, when photographed in their own, clothes. Anna Wintour, is a horror. Tom Ford seem stuck inside open shirts, down to his stomach. Giorgio Armani is often snapped with trousers piled so deep at his ankles, that another pair of pants could be made from the excess folds. Yves Saint Laurent wore boring, business suits to his runway shows. I've noticed this with makeup artists, too . . . many of them look like escapees from sideshows.
/I will have to disagree with the make up artist looking crazy thing, the M-artist I have seen are goregous.
This picture came directly out of the current GQ. The corresponding article explained "How to Dress Like an Italian." This included things like: (1) go sockless with loafers that don't match your belt; (2) have thin end of the tie longer than wide end; (3) wear your watch on the outside of your cuff (look closely). So, if the picture looks a little contrived and doesn't follow conventional rules, that's why.Originally Posted by URMarc

Then, there is the prince's mate, eccentric perfectionist Fabio Borrelli. He is the grandson of the first Borrelli, Anna, who from 1900 made the fashion house's hand-tailored suits, shirts and accessories for men in the preferred sartorial style of Italian royalty and Mafia gangsters.
Fabio himself boasts a wardrobe of 400-plus hand-made Borrelli suits and 300 pairs of shoes "broken in" by regular hand-polishing for two years before he'll wear them. "I don't like things that are too slick."
