Alexander McQueen dresses the most stylish guys of the weekend

AlexMcQueenWeekend

It's been a hectic weekend for film stars in the UK. Both the 'Divergent' and 'Noah' premieres took place a day after each other and Sunday night saw another red carpet laid down for the Empire Awards. It might be due to their stylist's synchronicity or just a coincidence but the most stylish guys of the weekend all chose to wear Alexander McQueen for their cinematic events.
Douglas Booth wore a stunning blue and grey checked double-breasted three-piece suit for his 'Noah' premiere in Dublin. The actor embodied perfectly that modern English attitude that makes you look cool and without having a three-piece suit out of place.
My favourite of this weekend's looks was Jamie Campbell Bower's. He has a really distinct flair for fashion, which I find really interesting. For the Empire Awards, he wore a navy jacquard suit perfectly worn with a simple white shirt and a polka skull pocket square.
For the London premiere of 'Divergent', Theo James wore the most classic of the three looks – a navy two-button single-breasted suit, which he kept interesting with a printed pocket square and a deep green tie.
The kudos this time must go to Alexander McQueen for continuing to find a perfect balance between immaculate tailoring and a subtle modern edge while staying absolutely true to their brand's principles.

The Front Row at the SS14 Burberry Prorsum Show in London

Burberry Menswear Spring/Summer 2014 - Front Row & Backstage

The grand tent Burberry built on Perk's Field for their homecoming menswear show felt like a very cool slightly old-school garden party, which worked fantastically with the collection Christopher Bailey showed yesterday afternoon. And, as it could be expected, the had an excellent turnout.
The LC:M current ambassador David Gandy and his successor Dermot O'Leary were both in attendance. As were Burberry front row usuals Tinie Tempah – in a SS13 giraffe print t-shirt – and Douglas Booth, who was the lucky one to be wearing SS14. Talk about fashion-forward!
Jamie Campbell Bower and Max Chilton looked effortlessly cool, as did Bolin Chen – in my favourite heart-print shirt – and Greg James, who was attending his second Burberry menswear show this season.
My favourite front-row-ers were, without a doubt, Finn and Jack Harries. I have been following the vloggers for over a year now and I'm so happy to see them attending LC:M events and shows. They have recently hit 2 million subscribers on YouTube and I expect their followers to keep growing. This is yet another genius move from Burberry, which shows their excellent understanding and awareness of new media and its influence.

Stay tuned for the recap of he SS14 show and a closer look at the collection from my visit to the Burberry showroom later today.
