Why He’s An Icon
Few, if any, young pop stars transcend into adult stardom, but Justin Timberlake has done it by changing the way he is perceived by his old and new fans. You know him from *NSYNC. You know him as Britney’s first. You know him as the willing (or unwilling) accomplice in Janet Jackson’s wardrobe malfunction. And you might even know him from his impersonation as one half of the Gibb brothers on Saturday Night Live. But now you know him as JT -- the one who brought sexy back. Hyperbole aside, the man does know how to transform himself for a new age and a new fan base. First he cut the hair; then he trashed the wannabe hip-hop threads; then he put on a suit and showed the world he had what it took to come back after everything else he had been through.
Dress The Timberlake Way
He no longer favors the hooded sweatshirt under the blazer, and those bleached-out trainers with low-slung jeans are but a figment of his boy-band self. Indeed the man has grown up and sports the best of the best in men’s suiting, but the true element of his new look is the stark white dress shirt in a body-hugging fit, sublime collar and tie that matches the suit jacket. Cutting your hair close and learning to dance won’t hurt either, but to dress like JT you need the shirt -- a shirt like Banana Republic’s pleated-front topper. The shirt still reveals the physique, but also gives you a modern way to dress down formal wear. It’s the perfect way to tell the world you mean business and are ready to be a new man -- JT-style
