About this title

Synopsis:

A highly collectible boxed set featuring three volumes of inimitable style inspiration from the Mr Porter website

Mr Porter, the men’s online retailer and style website, offers a haven of advice, information, and man-friendly guidance. The eponymous series of style guides, The Mr Porter Paperbacks, represents the best of the site’s content compiled into sophisticated paperback volumes that have helped define a new generation of men.

Now, Volumes One, Two, and Three are available in a covetable boxed set. Covering everything from the essential (how to take care of dress shoes and charm the in-laws) to the incidental (how to pull off daring feats or dance at a wedding), this sleek compendium offers the ultimate life and style advice for the modern man. The diverse content includes interviews with male icons in every corner of the art world (John Pawson, David Hockney, Irvine Welsh, and the English rapper Tinie Tempah); profiles of style icons past and present (Jean-Paul Belmondo, Bob Dylan, River Phoenix, Haile Selassie, the emperor of Ethiopia in the 1930s, and Tom Waits); mini-features on fashion classics including the knitted tie, the biker jacket, and the polo shirt; guidance from the popular advice feature “The Knack”; and much more. Illustrated in color throughout
