If there were a hall of fame for stylish journalists, Gay Talese wouldn't just be in it—it would be named after him. Sure, this son of a tailor from New Jersey is a legendary suit-wearer (you're about to get a look at his collection), but more than that, Talese gives a jolt of sophisticated style to everything he does.
Hell, even his reporter's notebook is an expression of his impeccable way with clothes.
Here, in the second edition of our Great Personal Style video series with Tudor, GQ Style Editor-in-Chief Will Welch sits down with Talese in the writer's New York City townhouse to talk clothes, writing, and life. Watch and learn the difference between merely wearing nice clothes—and truly being a great man of style.
