The Performers: Act VI – Michael Clark
However anyone wants to label it, initially I expected an avant-garde GUCCI-driven fantasy. For me it is that, however, I also get a sense of realism and honesty in the way Michael Clark looks and moves in the images.

100 Years of American Men’s Fashion In Pictures
We start in 1915, the dawn of the automobile age, when driving coats and flat caps were popular.
By 1985, men’s fashion had gone off the rails. Mullets, pastels, and leisure suits dominated the decade.
