The Film "A Single Man"by Tom Ford put forth such incredible attention to detail. The suits  for Colins character were custom tailored on Savile Row.  Ford even had the label on inside lapel's to say"George" Colin character's name and the year in which the suit was made for him... 1957. The movie takes place in 1962. Julianne Moore's wardrobe as well as makeup was to die for. Truly Impeccable Styling.
























Vintage "Invincible" Eyeglasses circa 1960's




The vintage eyeglasses that Colin Firth wore were simply dashing. I tried to emulate them as much as possible by showing this Circa 1960's eyeglass available at atticeyewear.com called the Invinsible.
Get the look.

This vintage photo of Audrey Hepburn in 1963 shows the playful aspect of this period. This new listing from www.atticeyewear.com is a classic example of 1960's fashion sunglasses such as Audrey's.
