Matt Kemp is Voted Best Dressed Man in Major League Baseball
Putting together a list of the best-dressed players in the MLB may seem easy, but the fact is that there are far more candidates than most people realize. After all, there is a ton of money in the MLB, much of which is delegated to the players that make up the league. It should be of no surprise that a lot of the players who are considered “best-dressed” are located either in New York or L.A., as both cities tend to be inhabited by people who have a penchant for looking their best as often as possible. Dodgers center-fielder Matt Kemp certainly deserves a place on the list, as in addition to what he is able to do professionally for his team, he happens to be one of the best-looking players on the field. Consider all of the following information about the style and fashion of Matt Kemp if you’d like to incorporate his look into your own appearance. His unique style and wardrobe choices earned him the #1 spot in our Best Dressed MLB player list.
The Oversized Bow Tie
It’s not easy for most guys to pull off the oversized bow tie, but if anyone can do it, it’s Matt Kemp. Kemp often makes this accessory a major part of his ensemble, as it tends to be a focus-point that cannot be ignored. Kemp prefers bow ties that are made out of velvet fabric and tend to be pitch-black in color; perfect for augmenting just about any ensemble that he pairs them with. We also applaud Kemp on tying his own bow ties as the self-tied bow tie is usually perceived as tacky (at least from the bow tie aficionado’s point of view). While wearing a bow tie like this on a regular basis can be easier said than done, those who attend a lot of semi-formal events can get a lot of mileage out of taking a chance every now and then. The more confidence you have when attempting this look, the more likely it is that you’ll be able to pull it off.
Checked Patterns
To put it plainly, Matt Kemp adores checked patterns. Whether he’s dressing formally with a suit, or simply kicking back in a vintage flannel, you can pretty much guarantee that Kemp is going to be wearing checks in one way or another. The bottom line with checks it to avoid overdoing them; something that Matt Kemp is keenly aware of. For example, just about any checked piece that you might consider wearing will look best when paired with a solid piece; solid pants typically work best with checked shirts, for example. If you try to combine multiple checked pieces, your chances of clashing will be exceptionally high. So long as you keep this to a minimum, however, you aren’t likely to run into any issues.
Skinny Ties
Being such a huge fan of the bow tie, Matt Kemp isn’t typically one to throw on a regular tie very often. When he does, though, he tends to stick to skinny ties as often as he can. As far as Kemp is concerned, the skinnier the tie, the better. While skinny ties aren’t for everyone, they can be quite effective when worn correctly; especially if you pair them with the right suits – something that Kemp is quite aware off. We applaud Kemp’s skill in pairing outfits that are proportionally harmonious. While he chooses wide peaked lapels and double breasted suits for his over-sized bow ties, he pairs his trendy skinny ties with a well-fitted narrow notch labeled suit.
DB Suits
Matt Kemp proves that the double breasted suit is no longer a style from the 80s. During last year’s ESPY award, Kemp was spotted in a gray window-pane check, double breasted suit white dress shirt, metallic gray skinny tie, a subtle silver tie bar, and a classy white pocket square. If you want to make the double breasted suit look your own, consider looking for a good tailor. Without proper fit, the DB suit can look rather baggy and sloppy than stylish. Also, opt for subtle peaked lapeled DB jackets instead of wider lapels found in the styles from the 80s.
