Eccentric Gentleman

Originalmente en inglés "gentleman" era un hombre de origen noble y hoy en día disfrutamos de la corteosidad (ya sé, me gusta inventar palabras, pero en inglés "courteousness" sí existe!) del significado original de la palabra y la mezclamos con la excentricidad que tanto disfrutamos (pero que pocos se atreven a vestir). Amé esta editorial con el guapo Johnny Harrington y su raro grooming: barba, bigote y pelo largo. Johnny luce como sacado de  las prendas clásicas que hasta mi abuelito usaría y los toques que dan esos accesorios que los hombres ya no usan diario.
¿Les gusta tanto como a mí?

Originally a "gentleman" was a man of noble birth, and nowadays we enjoy with the courteousness of this original meaning and mix it with the eccentricity that we all enjoy (but many rather not wear). I loved this editorial with the gorgeous Johnny Harrignton with his odd gromming: beard, moustache and long hair. He looks like taken from another time when all colours were darker and the garments men wore has an special meaning and ocassion to wear. All these classic clothes that even my grandfather might wear and some touches of those accesories that men no longer wear as a daily basis create with the the lighting and the beard a powerful portrait of the eccentric gentleman we all like to imagine.
Do you love it as much as I do?
