Description

From fashion and grooming tips to wardrobe essentials, Ines de la Fressange and Sophie Gachet reveal-with humor and fashion- insider savoir faire-the secrets of truly stylish men. While Parisian style for women has been dissected and appropriated, the authors of the New York Times bestseller Parisian Chic have written the first complete and practical sartorial guide for all men.

Attention to detail is key to a great look, and the authors demystify how to select accessories, from wristwatches, belts, and bags to hats, socks, and shoes. Step-by-step instructions for five different tie knots take men from casual to black tie with pizazz. They outline fifteen things every man needs in his closet, and seven items to be banished forever.

Complete with advice on color, cut, and the fashion faux pas to avoid, this must-have field guide is essential reading to show every man how to navigate the runway of life with style and panache.
