And I am interested as wel how to look 'a independent thinker'. Can someone please tell me?


Anyone?

alan flusser made gekkos clothes, he said he had to put pads under his dress shirt @ shoulder. also said michael douglass was an awful dresser and no one in hollywood today dressed well

I think his clients appreciate that he spends the bulk of his time overseeing their assets than arguing with the pony-tailed tailor over at TF.

If you're not exceedingly rich or an actual genius, dressing crazy won't make you come across as eccentric - just mentally ill.

Having said that, the most eccentric manner of dress in America today is to dress well.

+1 thats why i think that dressing "gekko" would certainly set you apart and give you a bit of eccentric flair, without looking marsupialed.

If you want to dress like a genius, just go through my wardrobe.

He made at least the horizontally striped ones when he was still at Denhof, and I think Denhof made for Flusser's operation as well.
