The dynamic men behind the Bogosse label are Haitian-born brothers Patrick and Fabrice Tardieu. Bogosse, translated, means handsome in French. Since its inception in 2004, Bogosse has created an imprint in the world of men’s fashion by influencing trends in men’s shirting. Constantly reinventing the iconic dress shirt, Bogosse creates non-traditional designs, as each stitch, seam and idea comes to life in a way that is reflective of the highest level of craftsmanship and innovation.

Fit is paramount and the Bogosse silhouette is slimming and compliments the body by cutting close to the body, yet maintains enough drape to be versatile when worn alone or undera jacket. Shoulders have a masculine shape and are also constructed close to the body--the result is modern, sleek and tailored.

Premium manufacturing imbues each piece with an artisan's influence, blending luxury fabrics and international influence for versatile wear. The Bogosse dress shirt combines regal classical elements juxtaposed against modern interpretations delivering nothing short of luxurious, intelligent irony. You can now find Bogosse dress shirts on Zappos.com. Give him the gift of Bogosse this year.

Sophisticate Your Wardrobe With Ease

Blazer, Button Up, Sophistication, Dapper, Fashion, Couture, Menswear

Refining your look doesn’t have to be an over-the-top, made-for-television makeover. It can be as simple as adding a blazer or slim-fitting button-up to your clothing collection. There are a few items every guy should have in his closet to go from fair to debonair.

At last month’s Milan Fashion Week, blazers were a reoccurring trend in menswear, signaling an upcoming plethora of choices in the fall. From blazer pairings with tailored shorts to skinny ties and buttoned shirts, it’s clear that the biggest names in fashion have settled upon the blazer as the ideal ensemble topper. The Howe Personal Jesus is a slim-fitting, polyester-viscose blazer (also available in denim) with four-button cuff that can be worn for any occasion. If you are trying to go more rockstar with your look, the house of Alexander McQueen offers the trendy, peak-lapelled McQ Mini Check Blazer to top of your outfit.

Nothing is more beneficial for the dapper gentleman than a versatile button-up. The Diesel Sfet Shirt can be dressed up with a blazer or worn on its own for a cleanly casual get-up. The zip closure chest pocket and shoulder epaulets that have become trademark of the Diesel brand make this a stylish addition to your wardrobe. If you prefer a little more color, the DKNY Jeans Long Sleeve Doublefaced Shirt can give your outfit the contrast you’re looking for. The tasteful plaid, cuffs and snap-button front make this a handy button-up for your next happy hour.

Looking like a million bucks doesn’t have to be hard. An easy blazer or shirt can take your style to the limit. Zappos.com has all the items to help sophisticate your style.
