About this title

Synopsis

InStyle fashion director Hal Rubenstein collects the very best of Gentry magazine—perhaps the most high-concept, high-quality men’s magazine in history—in a gorgeous, timely anthology perfect for the twenty-first century man. Publisher William C. Segal’s innovative style magazine broke new ground with its amazing graphic design and the timeless men’s fashions it presented in every issue. Steven Heller of Imprint says that “Gentry . . . rivaled the likes of Esquire for intelligence and Playboy for inventiveness.” Now, this elegant collection puts the best of Gentry at your fingertips—a perfect resource for anyone interested in fashion history and for today’s well-heeled young professional, as well as an excellent gift book for anyone with a stylish man in their lives.
