Harry Styles and Daniel Craig were named two of Britain’s most stylish men in a recent poll. The study was conducted by clothing e-commerce site Thread, which polled 2,000 Britons on who the best-dressed socialites in the country are.
Harry of Holmes Chapel has topped the list of celebrities aged 20 with 12 percent of the vote. Meanwhile, Chester’s former James Bond star was named the most stylish of those aged 50 to 59, with 26 per cent of respondents voting for him.
James Bond was a strong contributor throughout the list, with rumored future 007s Idris Elba and Richard Madden also being named for the 40’s and 30’s categories respectively, while Pierce Brosnan topped the 60’s lineup. Star Wars and Pulp Fiction actor Samuel L. Jackson won the ’70s category.

Toby Standing, Stylist at Thread, said: “We see pundits consistently deem celebrity’s outfits ‘hot or not’ – so it’s interesting to hear the public’s verdict, particularly across generations. Personal style evolves so much throughout our lives and we see the difference in the best dressed men it’s clear: every celebrity plays with style in an individual and personal way – especially the 007s past and present.

“Daniel Craig’s time as Bond has given him a master class in wearing good tailoring, so he’s not afraid to push the boat out and do something daring. However, Brosnan is experiencing a ‘Brose Renaissance’. Cut from the same fabric as Craig, his style has more of an elegant, sophisticated approach – softer cuts, classic knit styles and a real eye for good glasses.
“Elba often shows up on best-dressed lists because his style feels really accessible. Like Craig, he doesn’t shy away from color, which is probably his greatest asset. Madden is on the other end of the spectrum. He instead opts for a monochromatic, rugged style that harks back to James Dean – timeless and simple.
“That men in their forties are considered the most stylish is an intriguing statistic. We often see the youngest generation as fashionable, but perhaps as we get older we prioritize timeless style over trendy clothes.”
