Cooler weather calls for adaptable classics that will allow the wearer to face the changing climate as well as to look forever well dressed - even in a decade's time.
To prove the point, Dolldom's editors styled JAMIEshow's "Havana Nights Alejandro" in what they believe is a fall fashion classic. Can't you see Cary Grant or Clark Gable wearing it too? Granted, Alejandro's chiseled features do impart a good measure of tough-dude attitude, but the look is timeless.
The peacoat is from DAE Original's Monty "Shore Leave" fashion, the slacks and sweater are by Tonner Doll Company. And the jaunty cap is from Doctor John Littlechap's golf fashion.
This fall, make a point of staying warm and looking cool.
