Throughout this summer I’m working with GQ to highlight GQ + Gap’s annual #GQxGAP Best New Menswear Designers in America that will be launching at Gap in September. This plaid long sleeve button down from Michael Bastian can easily be dressed up, or turned into a casual surf-inspired look.
Looking ahead to fall, I styled it with the button down with a pair of Gap 1969 Skinny Fit Jeans. The jeans are a little tighter fit than is generally my go-to, but the stretch gives room to move and a comfortable fit. I’m always gunning for the more casual option, so layered it with a graphic surfer tee (sick brah!) from the Gap x Bielmann collaboration.
The complete Best New Menswear Designers in America All-Stars collection will be hitting Gap this fall, so stay tuned as a I preview a few more pieces from selected menswear designers! Would love to know which piece has been your favorite – or how you would of styled them differently.
Stay Risky,
– John
