I am currently working on some new men's cards, and what better place to look for inspiration than Steve McQueen? A stylish man's man nicknamed "The King of Cool" McQueen appeared in such all-time film classics as Bullitt and The Great Escape.
McQueen was an avid bike and car enthusiast. He often performed many of his own stunts, was a keen dirt bike rider, and owned many classic bikes and cars including this limited le Mans winning D-type Jaguar.
In The Thomas Crown Affair McQueen is immaculately tailored. A prominent Savile Row tailor said that this Prince of Wales check suit inspired him to take up the profession, and Ralph Lauren cites this film as his favourite and most inspirational film for his designs.
