Tom Cruise, 60 years of the perfect American boy with James Bond style

Currently the super star has landed the last shot. Top Gun: Maverick (in which she appears in great form) second chapter of the 1986 cult, she literally broke the world box office by becoming her most successful film, having been able to skillfully combine the nostalgia effect (the scene with Val Kilmer is moving) with the breathtaking stunts on modern hunting.

Not only successful on the big screen but also an apotheosis in terms of style: on the occasion of the long press tour that is taking him around the world, Tom Cruise has always been able to show himself at his best by keeping his wardrobe simple (but never boring), paying particular attention to the quality and wearability of the impeccable suits by Giorgio Armani (the maison that dressed him also in 2006 on the occasion of the wedding with Katie Holmes), Ermenegildo Zegna or Brioni in classic shades of blue, black and gray.

Tom, moreover, in his shoes never makes a turn, perfectly at ease in tuxedo composed of two or three pieces, made to measure (always very calibrated and cut to the best on his figure), with refined details, such as a tie clip or a pair of precious cufflinks, and lace-up shoes in leather and patent leather. Looks that James Bond would also like. An inspiration for anyone looking for a kind of formal and refined clothing, but also for those who want dress more casual without sacrificing class.

Because the years go by but Tom Cruise retains its DNA action (often in his action films he does not use stunts) and off the set he often appears in biker jackets, jeans and boots. As his stylists, Wendi & Nicole Ferreira underlined: “We have always focused on his most iconic key pieces and to respect his identity in the photocalls we have outlined two strands, one tailored and one biker chic”.

In short, the actor’s secret is to maintain a youthful style without ever appearing to be dressing too young. Perennial only in the registry office, still appears regularly in the lists of best dressed. After all, he is one of the most attractive stars in Hollywood whose success story inspires every aspiring actor in the world. His charisma is such that he has established himself as effortless fashion icon thanks to everything she shows off, from formal suits to casual garments.

And don’t be fooled if she’s wearing what might appear to be a simple office sweater. Maybe it arrives surrounded by the golden allure of the Hollywood myth, it may be that it is of a disarming kindness (which frankly you do not expect from a divine like him but which makes it even more iconic) but it manages to live up to, despite a stature not too high, even with the most ordinary of looks (and the writer assures it, because he met it live).

“You’re pregnant?” (yes, I was), he asked me when, in 2014, on a Roman terrace I was given five minutes with him for an interview. Then he brushed my belly and congratulated me. Today my nearly eight-year-old son is taking a theater course and dreams of being an actor. Call it what you want, for me it is the Tom’s Power. That, to say, capable of delivering it to history cool forever.
