“The Zegna designer has my vote. Why? To me, he is the epitome of fearless, intuitive elegance: always intensely masculine, but those cuts, those fabrics, the tattoos, the jewelry . . .” —Sally Singer, Vogue Creative Digital Director

“Fixing on one man in fashion as the ultimate paragon of well-dressed-ness is a tough call. Because how to choose from a field that includes Eugene Tong, Bruce Pask, Nick Wooster, Simone Marchetti, Masahiro Murase, Justin O’Shea, and Ben Cobb? Google these guys and you’ll see what I mean. Forced to select just one bro, though, I’ll go for Yu Masui. I’d never wear what he does, but I admire his gumption a lot. He’s the Anna Dello Russo of menswear.” —Luke Leitch, Vogue.com Contributing Editor

“I nominate stylist and costume designer Mobolaji Dawodu. A good friend and former colleague, Mobolaji has possibly the best color sense of any man I know. If you haven’t already seen the movie Mother of George, you absolutely must—he designed all the costumes, and the color and print combinations literally jump out at you off of the screen. I think if Fela Kuti and Picasso had a baby, Mobolaji would probably be it.” —Chioma Nnadi, Vogue.com Fashion News Director

“There’s a huge difference between style and fashion. Style is permanent, fashion is fleeting. I’ve known Nick Knight for a decade, and I’ve never seen him dressed inappropriately or unexpectedly. He has a uniform for life and for work. Nick is well dressed in the Beau Brummell mold: You’d never turn around to look at him in the street, yet he’s wearing the most exquisite custom-made shirts and Savile Row suits. The only things off-the-peg are the Levi’s 505s Nick always wears while shooting. There’s a wonderful Marie Antoinette–ish legend that Nick hates the feel of the jeans after they’ve been washed, so he throws them away before they need to be laundered. I can confirm that it’s absolutely true.” —Alexander Fury, Vogue.com Men’s Critic

“With the exception of Matthias Schoenaerts in Far From the Madding Crowd—who doesn’t really count; the movie, after all, is a fiction—nobody wears a cravat better than L’Uomo Vogue’s Robert Rabensteiner. (PS: Watch Far From the Madding Crowd anyway; Schoenaerts is a hunk.)”—Nicole Phelps, Director, Vogue Runway
