The Maxwell GQ photoshoot shows the R&B superstar as sharp a dresser as he is soulful as a singer. Ok, so I'm sure the stylists at GQ had a thing or two to do with the outfit. Regardless of who deserves the credit, however, one thing is for sure: all of the outfits featured in the spread look great.
With an emphasis on slim cut, well-tailored and mainly blue blazers, the Maxwell GQ spread channels a fresh yet old school-inspired cool that is generally lost on the music stars of today.
The shoot features clothing by menswear heavyweights Tom Ford, Paul Smith, Ralph Lauren Black Label and Marc By Marc Jacobs.
