Sharp-Dressed Man: Difference between revisions

* [[El Hazard|El Hazard's]] would-be ruler, [[Laughably Evil|Katsuhiko]] [[Magnificent Bastard|Jinnai]], is never seen without his school uniform: [http://www.hamanime.de/pix/anime/elh/jinnaidiva.jpg a snappy suit and tie.] Bonus points for stylin' by usually keeping one hand in his pocket, leaving the other free to straighten his necktie.

* ''[[Lupin III]]'': Lupin and Jigen Daisuke. Oddly enough, while both of these men dress well, Lupin is too much of a [[Handsome Lech]] to pull it off and Jigen's fangirls are all in the audience as opposed to the Lupin-verse. Either that or they want to kill him. Or they die. [[The Gunslinger]]'s got no luck with women...

** Also, Maxie, albeit with a specially-made uniform. Archie also has a nice suit.

* Shota example: Makube Rokuro from Tezuka's ''Vampires''. He keeps the look as he gets older. He appears as an [[Expy]] in works like ''[[Black Jack]]''.

* ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'': Any of the suits worn by Takemichi or his teacher Gateau.

* ''[[Chrono Crusade]]'' is a show set in the [[Roaring Twenties]], so of course most of its men are dressed in classy suits.

** Well, about the tenth movie, [[Justified Trope|there]] ''[[Justified Trope|was]]'' [[Justified Trope|a dresscode]].

** Sanji in general. [http://planetrenders.net/renders/albums/userpics/11489/Sanji.png Observe.]

* The most casual thing you ever see [[Monster (manga)|Johan]] [[Complete Monster|Liebert]] wear is a grey sweater, which he wears after getting out of the hospital following a massive [[Villainous BSOD]].

** There was also that cute clubbing dress with the magic make-you-shorter heels. And the wig, obviously. Despite the heels, it was a pretty casual outfit.

* ''[[Soul Eater]]'' gives us [[The Gunslinger|Death]] [[The Smart Guy|The]] [[Made of Diamond|Kid]], son of the [[Grim Reaper]], who is a teenager in a [[Super OCD|perfectly symmetrical]] suit.

* Michio Yuki and Detective Meguro from ''[[MW]]''.

* ''[[Circle of Magic]]'': Niklaren Goldeye. He's a male character in a work by [[Tamora Pierce]], so natural [[Author Appeal]], and a bit of [[The Dandy|a dandy]]. Briar might count too, simply because his foster-sister Sandry, an avid seamstress, wouldn't allow him to leave the house in any other mode of dress.

* Howl in ''[[Howl's Moving Castle (novel)|Howl's Moving Castle]]'', even before one of his suits gets ([[Achievements in Ignorance|accidentally]]) enchanted by Sophie.

* ''[[The Great Gatsby]]''.

* In ''[[Time Scout]]'' It turns out Malcolm's quietly a clothes horse. His favorite persona for Victorian London is as an eccentric globe-trotting gentleman and he has to keep up with changing styles. Contrast [[Ancient Rome]], where he's usually a collared slave, which is how he was dressed in the opening.

 

== Live-Action TV ==

* In ''[[The Colbert Report]]'', Stephen Colbert's suits are a major part of his personality. In one sketch, he reveals that beneath his suit is another suit.

** In other segments, he's had suits tailored for specific purposes, like one with a hoodie for his [[Cooking Duel|rap battle]] against Michael Steele.

* Spoofed with Cat in ''[[Red Dwarf]]'' who goes to absurd lengths to protect his clothes, even above protecting himself and others from physical harm.

* ''[[Jeeves and Wooster (TV series)|Jeeves and Wooster]]'': I say, most of the male cast. In Bertie's case it's only by Jeeves' best efforts.

** Jack in his "period military."

** Ianto Jones.

{{quote|'''Jack''': "Also looks good in a suit."}}

** Matt Smith as the Eleventh Doctor thinks he's this, but looks more [[Adorkable]] than anything else. In real life though, his off-beat clothes have been endlessly copied by young men around the world ([[The Red Stapler|especially]] [[Bow Ties Are Cool|the bow tie]]).

** David Tennant as The Tenth Doctor.

== Webcomics ==

* ''[[The Adventures of Dr. McNinja]]'': Dr. McNinja is almost never seen in anything other than his lab coat, dress shirt, tie, and ninja mask. One almost wonders if [http://drmcninja.com/archives/comic/17p73/ that's why he will feel terrible for the rest of his life about] ''[http://drmcninja.com/archives/comic/17p74/ this.]''

* There has yet to be a man who ''isn't'' well dressed in ''[[Todd Allison and The Petunia Violet]]''.

* Given the opportunity to upgrade their equipment through punchcard-based alchemy, both John and Dave of ''[[Homestuck]]'' prove to be fond of suits. Dave's [http://www.mspaintadventures.com/index.php?s=6&p=003734 FOUR ACES SUITED and PLUSH PUPPET TUX] deserve particular mention.
