Steal His Style: the Best Dressed Men at Cannes 2012

Cannes Film Festival is celebrating its 65th anniversary this year, and some of our favorite stars pulled off the hottest fashion trends for the extravaganza. Use this fashion cheat sheet to dress up for your own “Cannes moment” this weekend.

Plus, as the saying goes, one picture is worth a thousand words; just looking at these fashionistas will make you feel stylish.

Tell us, which look best suits you?

1. Brad Pitt

Every guy has a white t-shirt. (If you don’t, you’re not a guy.) Match the plain t-shirt with a light-colored suit. White bucks and a white belt will show others that you didn’t mindlessly put on a nice jacket to hide your white loungewear.

2. Zac Efron

We love this trim fit! Zac really makes this checked suit classy yet youthful. Don’t forget to add the finishing touches: the pocket-square and the straight skinny tie are the must-haves for this look. 

3. Gerard Butler

 

You may not notice anything special about this style at first, but look closely at how Gerard manages to keep a certain casualness about him. Forget about that tie your sister bought you for your birthday. Unbutton that shirt, and don’t be afraid to be sexy.

4. Ben Stiller

“White and black” may be too boring for a fashionable guy like you. Put on a colorful dress shirt while keeping everything else monochrome. If you aren’t ready to make a bold fashion statement yet, go for something understated like Ben’s slate grey shirt. 

5. Alec Baldwin

He’s really looking good in this Zegna tux here. Got a party tomorrow night? Why not a tux and a bow tie? If a tux is too much for the party, you can replace that with a slick suit; but don’t get rid of the bow tie ;)
