Everyone has their list of the best dressed men for the MET Gala 2014. Most of them go with typical choices but here are my picks.

I don’t do pans but I will say that while I applaud Neil Patrick Harris trying to pull off Thom Browne, it just didn’t seem right for him. I have no problem with the make up but it doesn’t work with the Browne – it makes it look like a costume. It’s a great tux but it just doesn’t work on him.

Addendum: I like David Burtka‘s Thom Browne coat, I just don’t think he is the right man to pull off pattern on pattern. Some looks are made for runway models, this is one of them.

Christian has been a cultural and style junkie since the age of 6; while most kids were swiping cookies, he was swiping his grandfathers' Patek Philippe. Raised to appreciate art, fashion,design and  literature (yeah, this one actually reads) by a single mother fondly called Jackie-O. Christian quickly went from childhood cultural capital thief to academia protégé. Referred to as the cat's meow by some, too clever by half by others, Christian eschewed the academic life and ran away to join the circus -the fashion circus. Several well-appointed positions later and a career on the rise would be most people's dream but it was time to say fuck off and start all over again.

This is Christian Dare Unedited.
