Elegant but also sexy and sporty, with an eye for the refinement of details. Tom Cruise turns 59 today and is the king of elegant suits, alternating with sporty chic looks. Like in an eternal action movie… very refined
Bello and impossible, chic and wild. Tom Cruise turns 59 today but time seems like an insignificant detail for him. The credit also goes to his rigorously tailor-made wardrobe. Refined without being boring and above all full of refined and precious details.
Tom Cruise, the alternate secret agent
Men’s fashion in Hollywood is a serious thing, especially if you’ve been frequenting its sets for more than 30 years. The classic example is the perennial star Tom Cruise , who reaches the threshold of 60 years without doing a single pleat. Having become famous with action films, the actor born in Syracuse NY on July 3, 1962 has never strayed from his ideal of a dynamic and performing man. The same goes for his looks, always refined and comfortable. Last but not least, he is an absolute reference for elegant suits, cut on a not very tall figure.
Tom Cruise at the 2012 Oscars.
Present for decades at the most important awards in the world of cinema, the actor and producer is the male icon of the contemporary tuxedo and the formal suit preferably in three pieces and competes in every way with the protagonists of James Bond. A manna of inspiration for those who are looking for a formal suit. But also for those who want to dress casually with class .
Never without… action star glasses
His bread and butter is high-tension action movies and, if possible, he often plays them without stuntmen. This “stunt” spirit is the continuum between fictional characters and life off the set, as demonstrated by his wardrobe full of biker jackets and jeans paired with his beloved Moc Toe boots and an accessory he loves in all cases: sunglasses and eyeglasses . Teardrop aviators like the Maverick from Top Gun , round geek-style eyeglasses like in Mission Impossible , shielded and square like in the spy story Collateral. They have always been in his wardrobe and are the essential finishing touch for daytime looks.

His stylists Wendi & Nicole Ferreira know this well : «We grew up watching his films», they explained, «the first time we worked with him we studied his entire style evolution over the years and we focused on the most iconic key pieces. In the end, to respect his identity in the photo calls, two lines emerged, one sartorial and one biker chic ».
The king of elegant (and tailored) suits
As in many other things, Tom Cruise has always had very clear ideas about style . Standing at 1.70 meters tall and in great shape as at the beginning of his career, in his evening looks he focuses on traditional, tailored garments, with the inevitable twist of the right accessories.
A great lover of classic fashion, on the red carpet he prefers tuxedos and two or three-piece suits with single-breasted jackets, preferably in black, blue and grey. Key combination: thin dark ties or thick and colourful ones, with precious cufflinks and tie clips and black lace-up shoes in leather or patent leather

Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise married in November 2006.
Among his reference designers are Ermenegildo Zegna and Dior , but for his wedding to Katie Holmes in 2006 he relied on his friend Giorgio Armani . Wearing a midnight blue tuxedo suit , with a single-breasted jacket with satin lapels worn over a four-button waistcoat. If the shoes and tie were in the same shade as the suit, the shirt was in ivory-colored silk , sewn – again to measure – in the same fabric as the bride’s dress.
