In honor of On the Road’s theatrical debut today, let’s look at Jack Kerouac’s style. Again. I’ve actually posted these looks before, but Kerouac was hardly one to troll the halls of department stores for some Givenchy or Balenciaga ish, so it still rings true. Feeding a long piece of paper through his typewriter, he would eventually become the voice of the beat generation. Of his works, On the Road is easily the most famous. It tells the story of his journey across the country along with his other comrades. Read the book and check the film trailer below. Meanwhile, here are your fashunz:
1. Shirt and bag by Loden Dager, pants and shoes by Louis Vuitton
2. Jacket by Patrick Ervell, sweatshirt by Loden Dager, pants by Louis Vuitton, shoes by Paul Smith
3. Shirt by michael Bastian, pants by Patrick Ervell, shoes by Louis Vuitton
WHAT WOULD JACK KEROUAC WEAR?
And now, we’re finally caught up on my posts for Esquire. Hope you like this one. It’s always a lot tougher to style people who actually lived, feels like you owe them a lot more work. Just a thought.
Did you enjoy reading this, well then you’re gonna love this shit:
