Style Icon... Will Ferrell??!?!!

I know what you're thinking. Will Ferrell? Funny, yes, but stylish? I myself can think of more ways that he's not, but in the 2006 film Stranger Than Fiction, Will Ferrell stars as quite possibly the country's only IRS agent to be dressed in impeccable suits and shirts by Domenico Vacca. Vacca is a tailor who's threads have been described as "the Ferrari of clothing," and he has dressed stars such as Dustin Hoffman (both personally and in the same film of which I now speak), Forest Whitaker, Mickey Rourke, Denzel Washington, Joe Pantoliano, and, well... the list goes on.

The video included above shows a sampling of a couple of Ferrell's wardrobe items in the film. Note also the plaid lining of his Burberry trench coat as his character, Harold Crick, runs to catch the bus. The way that Harold dresses in the film is not an attribute that one could easily infer based on the way he is described in the film's opening segment (or by the actor assuming his role), but that is, I guess, the magic of Hollywood. When budget is left up to the world of the cinema, we are occasionally afforded the opportunity to see fine clothes like Vacca's in action, and aside from the fantastically original storyline of Stranger Than Fiction, the clothes alone make the film worth watching. Check it out. The video above may get you hooked!
Cheers!
