Toronto Fashion Jobs – 2013 Men’s Style Stars To Watch

Eddie Redmayne (Actor):
Eddie Redmayne is now a common household name after his stellar performance in Les Miserables. Even after movie buzz died down, the discussion over Eddie did not. Not only is Eddie catching the eye of producers, but of designers as well. This year, he stared in a fashion campaign for Burberry, alongside Cara Delevingne. His chiseled face and stunning eyes are enough to reel us in at first glance, and his fresh, slender, formal attire keeps our gaze. His style and fast fame is being compared to that of Ryan Gosling.

Logan Lerman (Actor):
Logan has been immersed in the film industry since he was a child. Growing up with a quirky yet shy personality didn’t always leave him in the front spotlight. After we watched his heartbreaking story in Perks of Being A Wallflower in 2012, we were smitten. Logan has shown us more of a conscious effort in the wardrobe department, and wears colours that compliment his piercing blue eyes. His look is very indie with a classic feel, and he shows us that not blending in, allows your true personality to stand out; fame or not for fame.

Skylar Astin (Actor):
Admit it, you fell in love with his corny, “nice guy” with an edge character on Pitch Perfect. Aside from the funny guy jokes and Glee-esque form of singing, Skylar is an all around down-to-earth guy who loves mixing vintage and modern pieces. In October 2012, he reported on his style to August Man Magazine stating, “I like to look like I accidentally put myself together really well. Yet I try to adapt to wherever I am going style-wise.” Secrets are out that he is rumored to be a part of Pitch Perfect 2, alongside Rebel Wilson!

Karl Edwin Guerre (Photographer):
A talented artist, whom is most often seen behind the camera, now has to get used to being the one photographed on film. His most recent works have been published in American Vogue and GQ, and his love for fashion and photography translates through his style. Since becoming a photographer, Karl’s style has transformed drastically from underground hip-hop to 50’s gentleman, often-sporting tweed jackets, plaid, and oxfords. With his work and style taking off, this is only the beginning of a great fashion career for him.

Matt Bomer (Actor):
You may recognize him most for his role of a sexy stripper in Magic Mike, but this striking actor is breaking out of the shadows from behind Channing Tatum and making a memorable name for himself. His TV show White Collar is still signing for continuing seasons and he has already in production for four other projects this year. Speaking on his character in White Collar, Matt says, “I’ve taken a lot of notes from him. Throw on a tie bar, cuff links, and a fedora, and I feel like a different guy.” I like to think of him as the next Jon Hamm.

Justin Timberlake (Singer/Songwriter):
There’s no doubt that JT has been a favourite of many since his rise to fame as a child star, but after leaving the music scene in 2006 to focus on his acting career, JT is officially back from his musical hiatus. His new voice brings a new look alongside it, offering the more sensual, gentleman side of him. With fresh, black and white suits, and menswear designer, Tom Ford, behind him, it’s safe to say Justin won’t be looking back on his N’SYNC days.

David Gandy (Model):
Over the past few years, British model, David Gandy, has worked his way from beginner model, to one of the top international male model. He was first signed in 2001, and modeled for Dolce & Gabbana in 2006. But it was the 2012 London Olympic Games were he was the only male model featured in the catwalk for the opening ceremony, and has since been seen on an international level. David’s fit body and healthy glow is what has reporters saying he is “changing the face of fashion.” His style is tailored casual, often mixing denim with sharp blazers. You may recognize him from his most recent work with Banana Republic’s Mad Men Campaign.

Reggie Yates (TV Presenter):
Reggie is used to being the center of attention, as a full-time UK TV and Radio Host. However, Reggie finds himself in a different limelight, being admired by fashion designers and considered a breakout fashion mogul. Reggie’s laidback personality and eccentric style is gaining him recognition on all frontiers. He loves classic tailoring with a modern twist, and often incorporates accenting colours into his ensembles. Will.i.am joked around last season on BBC’s The Voice by calling him the “fashion Obama.”
