    The winner of this year's Menswear Designer of the Year was deservedly given to Michael Bastian. The former director of Bergdorf Goodman and after a couple of CFDA nominations has finally captured the award. The CFDA (Council of Fashion Designers of America) is pretty much the Oscars of American fashion. If you aren't familiar with him, I suggest you do your Google search and see how this man has put a fresh perspective in American mens fashion. I've always been more of a fan of the fashion houses of Europe, but designers like Bastian makes me keep my faith in American fashion. I've always admired the Ralph Lauren and Calvin Kleins of the world so it's really nice to see more and more American designers out there rubbing elbows with the best of them around the world.
    Check out the little slideshow on GQ.com of some of the more recent male designers making noise in the fashion world (along with some celebs). Please do excuse the Kanye West slide. Yes, I love GQ and all but why they decided to put his picture or outfit in it is beyond me. Kanye killed it...not in a good way. (click here>) Tommy Ton shoots CFDA
    Since the photos were of mostly men in their sharpest suits or tuxedos I also wanted to share with the rest of you men a tuxedo that is not only modern and stylish but incredibly affordable. It's the Topman three piece black nadal skinny tuxedo. In fact, all the suits at Topman are worth the gander if not a straight out purchase.
    $380 USD/ £160.00 UK
    • Black nadal tux suit jacket £85.00 - a one button single breasted jacket that has a satin trim on the lapels. 
    • Black nadal tux suit trousers £40.00 - with a black satin detailing on the waistband.
    • Black nadal tux suit waistcoat (vest) £35.00 - 5 button with black satin trim detailing on jet pockets as well.
    You guys can either visit their UK or US sites to check out the latest. I assure you, it's one of the most stylish and affordable places to shop, especially if you are searching for some quality suits on a budget that fits like it should.
