By Marc Marseille

When it comes to fashion or best-dressed list, it is always tough being a man. This is due to the fact that while woman are encouraged to take as many style risks as they can, gentleman’s style can be easily mistaken in a barely visible line between dullsville and fashion victim. Based on this fact, a list of best dressed British man 2011 has been compiled to celebrate the men that got it just right in 2011. David Beckham, Gary Barlow, Princess Harry and more are all featured on the list.

Jarvis Cocker


Cocker is blessed with the double-whammy of a model physique and a killer eye for style. On stage and off-duty, nobody does '70s Geography teacher chic anywhere near as good as him.
