Oscars-Best Dressed Men

Hugh Jackman, Daniel Craig, and Will Smith exuded a classic, and hopefully not lost, gentlemanliness with three distinct looks at last night's Oscars. Jackman sported a classic one-button peak lapel dinner jacket with a waistcoat, custom made from Burberry; Ford opted for an elegant shawl-lapel dinner jacket from Tom Ford while Will Smith went the natty double-breasted route with shawl lapels. Looks to these men because what they're wearing looked just as good 50 years ago. No messy unbuttoned shirt collars, no skinny ties, no trousers bunching at the shoe, no odd colors; just well cut and classic. For formal dress, wearing one of these options is a no-lose situation.
