Style Icon: Andr� 3000

With André 3000's new film Idlewild hitting the theaters this month, I thought that now would be a great time to spend some time talking about why I (humbly) think 3000 is the best dressed man in the world.

  • Reason 1: The plaid. Sure, he dresses like Fred Sanford, but he does it with such flair.
  • Reason 2: The facial hair. Is it a chin strap? Is it a soul patch? Whatever it is, I love it, and I usually hate facial hair.
  • Reason 3: The hats. Anybody can pull of a fedora (see Avril Lavigne), but can they pull of a kelly green turban with matching tie and sweater? I didn't think so.
  • Reason 4: The ascot. Sure, he's dressed like Thurston Howell III from Gilligan's Island, but I bet you if 3000 landed on the island Ginger and Mary Ann would be shaking it like a Polaroid picture.
