What a great example, Cary Grant. Many need to go back to the respectable years when people cared to polish themselves before they showed up in public

The legendary Hollywood designer Edith Head also said that he was the best well dressed human being on Earth not referring to men or women. Even John F. Kennedy admitted that "every body wants to be Cary Grant".

Cary Grant. Truly a sartorial icon. Before you go out, stop in front of the mirror and silently ask yourself, "Would Cary wear this?"<br>Cheers.

There is also one detail that makes a person stylish and respectful and that is posture and gestures. The way Cary and many other greats stood, walked, did any moves and talked it was with grace, elegance, confidence and self respect. Without that a person even bespokly dressed would look like a simpleton. Sure acting school helps but only to a degree.

Another sartorial "hero" is actor WILLIAM POWELL. You may remember him from the "Thin Man" series of the thirties. If you search pictures of "William Powell actor elegant" you will see what I mean. The only drawback is that most of the pictures are in black/white.

What a wonderful homage to my favourite film star Ash. The words 'getting older is a gift which isn't afforded to everyone ' is a phrase I will keep with me.<br>In a documentary on Grant on BBC a couple of years ago it mentioned how his mother advised him if he only could afford one item of clothing to purchase the best siut available on his journey to the US. The fortunate fact for Mr Grant is, even outside of his style, Cary Grant would look dapper in a pair of overalls.

Thank you so much for your delightful videos! Thanks for showing Cary Grant! The epitome of English elegance, friendliness and sheer style! He would be proud of you! I wish you a rewarding evening, Sir Elegance in Eloquence. 🙂 Giorgio

Interesting to take an icon from the golden era of Hollywood and draw inspiration for life-lessons. <br><br>I love the story of the Saville Row replica suits. Genius! Imagine only having one suit and spilling red wine all over it near the end of making a film. <br><br>It's a pity we can't post images of our favourite Cary Grant suits/looks here. Not sure if we can on the Patreon. Cheers, Ash.
