GQ Men: 55 Years of Looking Sharp and Living Smart

GQ has become synonymous with style, but "to be GQ" is so much more than just being outwardly fashionable.

It also means to be cultured, to have taste, to have panoramic interests.

GQ Men captures the essence of what it means to look sharp and think smart--the magazine's mantra--by showcasing the men who embody the GQ spirit: from screen legends to young hot shots, musicians, political and social leaders, plus artists, athletes, and funnymen.

Mining this iconic magazine's extensive photographic archives, GQ Men celebrates all the facets of the modern American man--smart and stylish both inside and out.
