Rod Stewart – The Artist 

Rod Stewart (Sir Roderick David Stewart) is a British rock singer and songwriter. Born and raised in London, he is of Scottish and English ancestry. Stewart is one of the best-selling music artists of all time, having sold over 100 million records worldwide. With his distinctive raspy singing voice, Stewart came to prominence in the late 1960s and the early 1970s with The Jeff Beck Group, and then with Faces. From the late 1970s through the 1990s, Stewart’s music often took on a new wave or soft rock/middle-of-the-road quality, and in the early 2000s, he released a series of successful albums interpreting the Great American Songbook. In 1994, Stewart staged the largest free rock concert in history when he performed in front of 3.5 million people in Rio de Janeiro.

You Wear It Well- The Song 

‘You Wear it Well’ is a song written by Rod Stewart and Martin Quittenton, performed by Stewart. It has been seen as an arrangement of “Maggie May”, one of Stewart’s hits from the previous year. Stewart recorded “You Wear It Well” for the 1972 album Never a Dull Moment, and released it as a single on 12 August. The song became an international hit, reaching number one on the UK Singles Chart.

The Mans Suit- The Shape

Modelled into the top half of a mans suit. A suit is a set of men’s wear comprising a lounge jacket and trousers. When of identical textile, and worn with a collared dress shirt, necktie, and dress shoes, it is traditionally considered formal wear in Western dress codes. The lounge suit originated as 19th-century casual sports and country wear in Britain, still reflected in the sport coat and blazer worn as smart casual. After replacing the black frock coat in the early 20th century, a darker suit also became known as a business suit for professional occasions, when sober in style. Suits are offered in different designs and constructions. Cut, and cloth, whether two- or three-piece, single- or double-breasted, vary, in addition to various accessories. A two-piece suit has a jacket and trousers, a three-piece suit adds a waistcoat. Other notable types of suits are the semi-formal dinner suit (black tie) and the black lounge suit (stroller), both which arose as less formal alternatives to the formal dress coat for white tie, and the morning coat for morning dress, respectively. Originally, as with most clothes, a tailor made the suit from the client’s selected cloth; these are now often known as bespoke suits. The suit was custom-made to the measurements, taste, and style preferences of the man. Since the 1960s, most suits are mass-produced. As such, they are sold as ready-to-wear garments, although alteration by a tailor prior to wearing is common.
