Best Dressed Man in Hong Kong

We have been scoping the streets, shops and event scene in Hong Kong for a few weeks now, and we have finally chosen our best dressed man for 2012 the winner is

JJ.Acuna


When it comes to anything art, culture and fashion for that matter JJ Architect-Designer, is your man, he is The Wanderlister after all.  Always dresses the part, come rain, or shine he constantly looks dapper, impeccable and effortlessly styled.

Monsieur Man sat down with JJ and asked him to describe his four favourite outfits over the course of the year.  We starting with-

#1 Moustache

“This is my relaxed weekend look. I was wearing a Moustache long sleeved jersey tee in Mango color and corduroy shorts in Mustard and red. Loved it. (Monsieur Man loves it too) With a nice pocket square hanging out to the side. This look goes well with sunglasses and espadrilles.”



#2 Club Monaco

“This is the weekday spilling over the weekend look. (classic, a very prepared well dressed man) Thick heather grey blazer by Made in USA Club Monaco with Blogger Michael Williams of a Continuous Lean. The salmon shirt is from the same collection as well. The red pocket square is actually a bandana made just for the Men's Shop in Hong Kong with Club Monaco. The drawstring shorts are from Uni Qlo and shoes are by TOMS.”

#3 Obamarama

“This was the outfit I wore for my Obamarama Election Night party I co-hosted with The General Store at Salon No.10. The theme was Americana. I was late for work that morning so the first thing that popped into my mind was cowboys and indians, so I just put on this vintage denim shirt, mustard jeans from INITIAL. The glasses are a Thierry Lasry x Garrett Leight collaboration. They're really sunglasses but I made them into prescription lenses for work. Im an architect so it's okay to have funky glasses.”



#4 Anthony Hill

“This outfit is actually a more work-friendly version of my Obamarama look. The shirt is oxford from JASPAL. I got the pocket square from a thrift shop. The jeans are from INITIAL. The belt I got from a shop in China. The shoes is SEBAGO and the envelope sleeve bag in black leather is by COS. Glasses are by Robert Geller. The most important look of the outfit is the bespoke jacket, a relaxed cotton in navy blue by Anthony Hill for HILL Menswear. This was for his popup at Kapok!”



Thank you very much JJ, and congratulations once more for being Monsieur Man’s best dressed man in HK 2012!
