Style Icon: Ryan Gosling
Posted on June 13th, 2011 | Style Icons | N/A at IMDb

Arguably the best dressed man in Hollywood right now, Ryan Gosling makes it look easier and easier each time he steps on the Red Carpet. His style is defined by impeccably tailored suits and his ability to wear a mix of staple pieces along with bold patterns. The 30 year old Canadian who started acting at age 12 has done a great job making his way from supporting roles like that which he played in Remember the Titans to leading man in his best known work The Notebook. This summer he stars alongside Steve Carell in Crazy, Stupid Love, a typical rom-com with a solid cast, story line and what, from the trailer, looks like pretty serious style. One of my favorite looks of the year was the image above where he wore an awesome statement tux in a pale blue on the red carpet and undoubtedly made all of the black and white, play it by the book guys (not that there is anything wrong with keeping it classic, if you do it correctly) look like they were going to high school prom. Big fan of the shawl collar and the calculated scruff too. Bravo! I wouldn’t recommend the look for everyone but if you do want to take a bit of a risk and try something different go for a midnight blue tux for the next black tie event you have to go to. Keep everything else classic, I guarantee people will notice. I’m going to give Mr. Gosling the benefit of the doubt and assume he doesn’t have a stylist because if he did that would be the disappointment of the year for me. With that assumption in mind Ryan Gosling is one of our Style Icons. The dude has got some serious swagger.
