The Classic Man is timeless, polished and refined. He’s all about more tailored styles when he’s dressed up and clean basics when he’s dressed down.

Our stylists put together this handsome business-casual attire that suits the Classic Man’s impeccably timeless taste. A simple V-neck sweater over a plaid button-down shirt and crisp khaki pants equal a great ensemble for a lunch date or business meeting.

Casual city dressing is a study in subtleties and refinement. The modern city slicker is all about merging classic looks with modern simplicity. There’s no reason why you can’t rock a pair of blue jeans or khakis to the hottest restaurant uptown. Just make sure you stick to understated classics that exude effortless style.

All eyes were on the UK this morning with the grandest, most publicized wedding in almost three decades, William and Kate’s royal nuptials. With all this buzz around the royal wedding, we thought we’d pay a little homage to our British blokes and lasses with some of the best modern fashion the UK has to offer.

Sure the Brits are all about pomp and circumstance, but when it comes to churning out the freshest fashion, they’re really on top of their game. There’s the cool and refined style of Ben Sherman, the freshly tailored ONETrueSaxon, and the classic, iconic design of Fred Perry. We also love the inventive yet polished style of Ted Baker, particularly their women’s collection. Check out the Ziaz Bow Neck dress. We think Kate Middleton would look quite stunning in it!

Last but certainly not least, another noteworthy British brand is Boxfresh. This hip London-based brand truly reflects the dynamic British streetwear scene in all of its glory. Oh, and did we mention that Zappos.com is an exclusive online retailer for Boxfresh in the U.S.?

When it comes to iconic style, the Brits have always been at the forefront with their classic-meets-modern sensibilities. After all, our neighbors across the pond can be credited for so many looks that are now a part of a universal fashion vocabulary. From punk to collegiate preppy and everything in between, British fashion has never failed to be ahead of the curve.

Zappos is proud to carry some of the most renowned and iconic Britain-based streetwear and fashion brands such as Boxfresh, ONETrueSaxon, Fred Perry, Ted Baker, Ben Sherman and Ian Poulter Design.

Each of these British brands is heavily influenced by the dynamic music, pop culture and fashion scenes of London. From the street-savvy style of Boxfresh and Ben Sherman, to the more traditional yet distinctive style of Ted Baker and Ian Poulter Design, British fashion is a healthy mix of fashion-forward and classic.

Fred Perry and music go back a long way. Through the decades the iconic laurel logo has been closely associated with leading musicians and has become a badge of honour for mods, beatniks, rude boys, suede heads, punks and just about every music-led subculture from ska to hip hop. Following in the footsteps of legends like Paul Weller, Terry Hall and Damon Albarn comes the inimitable Amy Winehouse, as rich a musical talent as to have emerged from Britain this millennium. Instantly recognisable for her sense of style as much as her dark-stained soul vocals, gritty lyrics and biting wit, Winehouse is a one woman cultural phenomenon.

A long-time Fred Perry fan and aficionado, Amy has now collaborated with the brand on her own 17 piece Fred Perry apparel and accessories collection. It’s Amy all over – sharp, clever, sexy, lots of attitude – but stays true to the Fred Perry aesthetic and unrivalled heritage. Classic pieces – the twin-tipped M12 polo shirt and the Harrington jacket – are given the full Winehouse treatment and still remain instantly recognisable. The colors are predominantly black and pink. Collars are most definitely raised and ready for action. And yet for every tomboy twist there’s a deeply feminine twirl.

The Amy Winehouse collection pushes Fred Perry womenswear to a new space on the fashion stage, one that confronts expectations and stretches conventional views of the brand. It’s an uncompromising look that wears its heart on its sleeve. A collection that could only have been designed by an extraordinary musician. Get it exclusively at Zappos.com.
