With his new album released yesterday and just for being possibly one of the coolest human beings to walk this tiny planet, what better person to dedicate this latest blog entry to than none other than Anton Bruhin.
Jokes it's Pharrell.
Musician, producer and fashion marvel Pharrell has proved himself to be a well rounded individual, he also appears to have discovered the secret to eternal youth, having reached the age of 40 with barely a crinkle to spy.
As well as being a muscially talented and slick looking individual, Pharrell appears to be seeking to somewhat of a trendsetter. Not only does he have a illustrious hat collection for people to cotton on, but
he is also partial to the tailored short suit.
Before we move on to the tailored short, let's just browse through some of Pharrells finer pieces from his noggin warmer assortment.

| The most recent addition, when seen from a distance tricks you into thinking 'by god! we appear to be near a small mountain range" |

| He looks like a fluffy pink cloud. Look at him ponder. |
 |
| He just basically suits any hat. |
 |
| ANY hat |
 |
| Even if it has daisies on it. |
Despite being a massive fan of the man himself and his versatile head, the tailored short is something i'm yet to be swung by as a whole....

| You know that scene in 'Mean Girls' where they cut the boobs out of Regina's top? Well it's like someones gone and done something similar to Pharrell's trousers, and he's just gone 'meh'. |
So where has this look sprung from? Is this something that is going to become more prominent in menswear as a whole? Tailored shorts is something that has already been on the runways, they featured heavily in Richard James SS'13 show in an array of dazzling colours. They also appeard in Junya Watanabe SS'13 collection as well as Raf Simons. However, it appears the tailored short suit is something that struggled to hit the ground running as there has been very little evidence of other leading male marvels jumping onto this bandwagon. Sadly it's still not aproppiate for office settings, as much as all the 50 somethings that work in my office would be able to pull it off, but in my eyes it is too bigger adaption on the suit for people to ride with. The suit is really the definition and signifier of a gentleman, which is hard to convey to someone when they are being distracted by your knobbly knees.
We won't be seeing it in our work environments anytime soon and it should probably keep off the red carpet (imagine the burn if you fell), however hats off to Pharrell (get the link there?) for once again trying to push against fashion conformities.
Love ya always though Pharrell.
