Arlo Weiner has Mad Style



When it comes to sartorial vocabulary, I'd argue that most 2nd grade boys don't know much beyond the words pants, socks, and shirt. However, Arlo Weiner is not your average pre-pubescent. His father is Matt Weiner, also known as the creator of the tv series Mad Men. Sarah Goldstein of GQ writes, "Arlo Weiner has been creating his own style since the age of three—when he asked his parents for a top hat. Soon he’d moved on to striped bow ties, crushed velvet jackets, madras pants, and ascots (yeah, he knows what an ascot is)."

You can read more about Arlo and his impeccable fashion sense in his feature at GQ called Mad Boy, and be sure to check out his fashion (slide)show on the site as well.

Wow, what an awesome kid. And if he is this sure of himself and knows his style at this age, well, he should be great during those awkward teenage years.

It depresses me to no end when I see children more stylish than me. That first photo? What a little heartbreaker. Unbelievable!

I love his style. What fun! I might have to blog about this myself. Thanks so much for sharing.

I hope that someday I will have a son who knows what an ascot is and has one in his regular wardrobe rotation. Adorable.
