post a commentAll white is the best look. He looks like he owns a thousand luxury yachts and doesn't give a hoot about it.
This was for a spread right? Nobody is this relaxed in real life.
Okay Sean Connery, get out of the way! I am in love, and leaving for Florence as soon as possible. Wow, this man is absolutely gorgeous from is flowing silvered locks and beard to his classic shades. Love the white from head to foot. White espadrilles? How many MEN can pull this off and not go in the other direction? I'm counting maybe on one hand and definitely not in the USA. Casual elegance to the max!
comb in the pocket?
I love white on white for summer, it never tires for me. His white espadrilles especially are a nice touch. When men make an effort with their footwear, I know the rest is going to look good too.
Is that the most interesting man in the world? Where is his Dos Equis? :)
"Suffice it to say that black and white are also colors... for their simultaneous contrast is as striking as that of green and red, for instance." (Vincent van Gogh)
Très été!

Taking in the sun :D

Looks right out of an Umit Benan lookbook!
Epitome of class
He looks great in white, so casual, fresh and chic. I love how he just pulls of those white pants with such ease as if there's nothing to it.
Anybody else notice the "Die" by his head? interesting contrast.
Going to look for some espadrilles.
"He's a lover, not a fighter, but he's also a fighter - so don't get any ideas..."
We love the all white look. So fresh.
So simple, so pure... the mediterranean essence...
This is a gorgeous man! Actually any man who can wear all white with that much elegance is gorgeous. Even the beard works... I've got to get me one of them tans.
Classic and chic. Not everybody looks good all in white, he looks interesting
This guy looks like one of Umit Benan's models.. but I don't think he is. Is he ?
If you didn't tell us this was taken in Florence, I might have been able to guess it just by looking at this guy, leaning against that stone wall. I wish people in America looked like this...
Thanks for sharing this great photo
Reminds me of Rene Mathis, the retired super-secret-agent, from James Bond movies.
Or, as Luis said, Umit Benan models.
It's amazing how dressing so simply and great grooming can make one look fabulously wealthy.
LOL this could totally be some guy sitting outside of Cafe Italia in south philly. Except he's not in a beach chair.
HALCOHOLIC.com
What I find great about this outfit is how he combines all white with black watch and sunglasses!
The rocks behind him rock. Looks like they've been his friends for years.
Love him. So fresh in all white. Very chic! x

Is it common for men to wear white in florence? Feels like I see it a lot in movies.
http://bigmouthvintage.com
Is this the model for Umit Benan? Anyone know? Umit's Turkish, but I believe he lives in Italy...
Stay thirsty, my friends.
Very sexy man.
Like the photo and the style. However, white pants are impractical. They show everything. A natural linen or slightly tan cotton trouser will hide some dirt. You'll be able to wear them at least twice before you'll have to wash them.
Definitely one cool character, loving the all white for summer
www.arashmazinani.com
Can I introduce him to my Mom????
Yes....and
I will no longer discourage my husband from wanting to buy espidrills, silly me.
what a mix of dashing and daring. i love the nautical feel and the deeply serene, poetic, almost ceremonial feel here. wonderful!

White hot silver fox! Simple, elegant. I envy those with olive skin who can wear just white; us celtic types can't get away with it, instead of looking chic we look ill!
White Light/White Heat.
I love Italian old man style!
The chinos.. the loafers.. the silver locks.
Gorge.

This is one cool dude.
the handkerchief with color is a amazing little detail!
www.findingfashionland.blogspot.com
nice ! love white style!!
I can see his dignity !
http://streetfsn.blogspot.com
well this is NICE. what a man. heading to florence, or buying white jeans like Garance :)
There's a push against bling?
You made my weekend!
great eye in that he didn't overdo this look with excessive accessories.
Ah, finally, an actual grown up well dressed man again. Bravo.
He is wonderful, his body is so relaxationed,I want to be beside him and to rest. The sun and this man / absolutly perfect / - paradise. ... and Italy. Dream.I want to be there.
Best.
This is possibly my favorite picture ever.
so much expression, so little effort.

white on white is always refreshing. just be sure not to get too much of a tan to offset this monotone palette.
white espadrilles... so hard to maintain but just wonderful to wear.
NOUVEAU SKIN
Growing up in Hawaii, we wore white T-shirts or white Keds or white shorts... but never all at once. One day, when I was a teen, I saw a suntanned blonde tourist (another teen girl) dressed all in white, head to toe. I thought she looked fantastic, straight out of Seventeen magazine.
But could I have tried that to high school? No way! An all-white get-up would've looked idiotic among the locals.
You need the right context to pull off the all-white look (plus a tan).
that's the sexiest old guy ever to grace a fashion photo.
such a naturally handsome man, seems so effortless. Love him.
i want to have this casual confidence when i'm his age. like the little blue detail in his pocket.
So Sharp! And bright!
He looks so elegant. I think men after 45 should be like this
Marika
and check out my new project - Story of my Clothes
"The Italian"
My future husband should be like him.
....and we're back! finally! I was heart sick with the clownishness of japan (it doesn't take "style" to dress like a clown), the"any ole' thing'll do" of OZ..and now the cowboys of russia..oy vey!
and then, and then...sigh, here he is in all his italian dna, in white espedrilles! Fellow Sarters, kids...it's the rich, wrinkled fabric, the almost "who cares" 'tude (even if it was the stylists')..as he rolled out of bed, grabed what was on the floor and a smoke, and headed for his caffe.
i've been sooo jonesin' for al bazar, gino, the "annas", giovanna, the Grace kelly in milano...the bike boys, the lovely Milanese lady with "sparkle".
Poor Sart...you travel/work so hard for us..and all i could think on this romp was.."lordy, will the Italians ever Back"??? there is a god, and He's wearing wrinkled whites and espadrilles in Firenze!
Wow! miam! vivement l'été! You desperately want summer and white heat looking at that pic!
Stunning. This has knocked all the others off to top spot for me, Sarty. It's got me dreaming of my summer holiday... Thank you.
the man is so cool....
http://bulbizar.blogspot.com/
Un elegante uomo italiano!
There is a certain light when white is just right. So cool!
all white is the best...great shot
absolut gorgeous.
Maybe he ist 40 years older than me, I don`t care, I am totaly in love.
Gorgeous photo!!!
Beautifully taken, Scott. There some wonderful light and character in this shot.
it is something about the pose
=D
Want. (Not the clothes. The man)
I love his style.
What is it about the men here?
looks like giancarlo gianini, as someone noticed above!!!
Is this a real person living now? Hahaha. Hard to believe someone would dress this chic. He looks like a modern Cary Grant, to me. And when you investigate what he is wearing it looks as comfortable as the casual/sloppy clothes most people wear today but so much more appropriate. Inspiring.
I hope I look and act this way when I reach this young gentleman's age.
I mean there's no matter in his age. This man epitomizes sexiness. And the hint of turquoise in his pocket...
all in white,WONDERFUL
S E X Y!!!! I am 54 and you can have all of those young fellows!!!
ok, you finally got my first comment...he is absolutely magical. *swoon*
perfect elegance, very distinguished. My favorite part are the sunglasses, and his beard :)
O M G this is THE MAN
So beautiful
i love this man. he looks like the perfect older man for a love affair.
gogeous, absolutely gorgeous, would love to share a bottle of wine with him ; )
superbe! very elegant!
Tres Chic! Your blog is so chic. Your like a modern day Warhol!
xoxo, Kyle Rehling
perfect gentleman, so interesting!
Yum.
fantastic!!! this guy is styling it...simple, fresh and very cool!
He looks like he has wealth of knowledge about the world. I wouldn't mind sharing conversations with him until the sun came up the following day over a good bottle of wine. His wrinkles are testaments of experience. YES! YES! YES!
Tx Sir Sartorialist
Certain age does not very often go with being cool & steady & easy at the same time. On the other side of scale there is very often a "stiff" glamour of wearing well done suits...
I LOVE THE WAY HE LOOKS!!!
He is not just in white...he is radiant!
white espadrillas ♥
chic!
rivieramare.blogspot.com
love.
the.
espadrilles.
Sooo relaxed and confortable! A frame of the ideal lifestyle...
white looks so hot in him. and yeah, he seems so relax like he doesn't give a dam* about anything. :P i don't know why, but the scribbled "DIE" on the wall gives me an impression of life after death or something on that concept. don't mind me. haha.
i can't even handle how much this man is stunnin'! carefree beautiful style!
That all white is hard to pull off, but he looks amazing.
Why is it that Italian men can get away with things that no one else can pull off?
*sigh*
www.highheelsanddp.blogspot.com
Love. Instant and utter.
What a strong face and signature beard he has!?
He seems so.... artsy.
lovely photo!
Little blue detail? Pocket Handkerchief? Hint of Turquoise?
That's the the corner of a pack of rizla rolling papers for cigarettes!!
Now THIS I like. Take heed guys, this man's sexy, confident, alluring. He may just be the most interesting man in the world. Thanks to Dos Equis.
Wonderful! Wish I would have met this man walking around here...
And people wonder why women fall for older men?? This guy has the subtle confidence that one can only acquire with age..
such timeless simplicity - he probably isn't even wearing underwear - he's that laid-back and confident
He is a God in white! Perfetto!
thanks for great shot!
and i do appreciate the look of this age men, that radiates confidence... timeless elegance.. i'm 50 now, and i do wear all white now, and as i did when i was 20... pure classic..
in respond to anonimous..
"such timeless simplicity - he probably isn't even wearing underwear - he's that laid-back and confident"
i guess he is wearing at least "cod piece" - these pants are too slim to go commandos...
I love the crumpled white against the rough stone and brick...with that little blue accent in the pocket...dreamy!
If I was a man I would want to be this one. Daz Ultra?
The way he is res,ting against the stones, the self confidence in his gesture...
divine.
Love that it also says, "die" right behind his head. Kinda like that is what he would say should you tell him how to change who he is. Perfect placement.
Toms, the mature beach warm weather foot wear
I'll have that one!!
Soo tommy bahamas
If this were staged, I'd say it's boring. Assuming, it's not, this man is brilliant!
i love this!
years ago i worked with a guy who lived in west london, worked in central london, & used public transport in between the two - on the days when he wore white he would arrive at work 7.30 (9am start) in order to minimize the possibility of his outfit getting dirty on the way through contact with other people..
I simply love your pics.. they look amazing and I feel like I am really looking at those men and women...!
Ihave to learn from you :)
Soo Italian...makes me miss Europe.
Crisp
I just love the ease...the ancient bricks at his back and the white glare, the salt&pepper very nicely shaped beard...funny though that word "DIE..." behind his head - what was the whole word?
I'm. In. Love.
Beautiful, sexy, erotic, sensual, strong, masculine, wonderful, interesting........
Great light!!. I love the composition
Are we sure this isn't the XX beer guy? You know...."The most interesting man in the world."
Isn't this "The Most Interesting Man In The World" from the Dos Equis commercials?
This could be a cover for a Cigar Aficionado issue. The contrast in the shot with the brick is stellar.
every time i see his picture, i love it even more!
YES!
I love this. It's....dirty but clean. Relaxed but refined. Also, I love his short socks/sockless-ness. After having my band teacher drill into us the inportance of long, color-correct dress socks, I like the reveal of this. It's emphasizes the relaxation.
Ankle love.
Love this ibicencan shoes... They are called "Espardenyes"... Love the luck! Love the white! Love Ibiza!
This is why I love being a 'Fiorentina'. Gorgeous people like this live in my city... This man is beautiful, his face tells a million stories, his posture as well, but a totally different one...
