Each week, we quiz a prominent person about their style and the inspiration behind it. Ahead, model Nathan McGuire. “My retro references are James Dean, Paul Newman and Alain Delon.
” How would you describe your style? It’s pretty relaxed – an easy shirt with tailored trousers, cargo pants or great denim. What’s the oldest thing in your wardrobe? A Versace shirt from the ’90s, black with gold motifs. It’s a fun one to wear in the summer.
And the most recent addition? A Jacquemus “Largo” T-shirt from the La Casa collection I bought in Paris. A Jacquemus “Largo” T-shirt is the latest item in Nathan McGuire’s wardrobe. What are the three essential items in your wardrobe? Black Calvin Klein jeans, my suede Birkenstocks, and a collab between my label, Solid Ochre, and Vaanyard sunglasses.
I’ve been wearing those everywhere. What would you wear ..
. on a first date? I’d go for a sleek look – a navy or black collared shirt with tailored, fitted pants, a cool belt, great jewellery and Armani sneakers ..
. on a plane? Comfortable Calvin Klein jeans with a tee and Nagnata jumper. I always take a hoodie and good headphones .
.. on the red carpet? A classic tuxedo.
What’s your favourite fashion era? I love how graphic and colourful ’70s fashion was. The cut of the menswear was super cool, the pants, the vintage-style T-shirts and super-short shorts. Who’s your favourite designer? I’m loving JW Anderson.
It’s simple yet elevated and luxurious, the colou.
