6 photos in galleryWe always feel sort of out of our depth when it comes to menswear, because — as non-men — we don’t understand the intricacies of it as well as we do, say, What That Dress Will Do To Your Boobs. So while we were intrigued by the general lack of traditional suits at the Green Lantern premiere last night, we haven’t quite decided how we feel about how these particular alternatives were executed. But what do we know? The only “dressing left” we have to worry about his how much of last night’s ranch is still in the fridge.

Forgive me but – FAB. And not just because he is my fellow Canadian countryman… (I had no problem dissing Shania!). I like the monochromatic look. I think the shoes are suede??? Anyway, I’d be checking out his ass too if I were those girls! Not the least bit interested in seeing him in the green suit, but I’ll enjoy this photo.

Well, if Ryan Reynolds was wearing what I’d really like to see him in, he’d get arrested for public indecency. ; D
Ryan – the scuffed suede shoes with a suit? That needs to stop. You’ve done it twice in recent days, so you clearly think it’s a good idea. And it’s not.
Zach Levi – ditto for the Chucks. Love the chucks, but not with this outfit.
Wayne Brady – love you, but that suit doesn’t fit you.
Love Peter and his suit — so cute! — and love Wayne in those colors. But lose the chain, Wayne — it’s a little Barry White.
I think Ryan Reynolds needs to avoid the skinny pants trend. It makes his head look disproportionately large compared to the rest of his body– even his legs. Not sexy at all.
I just want to put Peter Sarsgaard in my pocket and keep him there forever and ever. The end.
mmmm i personally think ry reyns has never looked better, but i do love a man in tight pants.
Please don’t stone me, but I’ve never really gotten the Ryan Reynolds thing. As for this, it’s ok, but (and I realize I sound like my grandma, but…) he needs a belt. Also, maybe a skooch looser in the pants. Think of what they’re doing to the swimmers!
None of these men do it for me except maybe Peter Sarsgaaaaaard but in a slightly creepy John Malkovich way. Ryan Reynolds seems so bland. Has he ever had a meaty role in a good film? Or is it always superheroes and guys like the ones he plays in Sandra Bullock movies. He’s like a plain bagel with plain cream cheese. Snooooooze.
I agree about the belt. He definitely needs one. Dress pants require a belt. Other than that the skinny pants just do not work on him.
Never been a fan of a man in tight suit pants, particularly light colored suit pants. I like Peter Saarsgard’s suit, but what’s with the open tie? I have no problem with a man loosening his tie on the way home from the office, but the only person who truly looks good with a loose tie is Diane Keaton.
I think one of the girls checking out Ryan Reynolds is a boy! LOL! I’d be looking too!
I would like to take this moment to publically thank Zach for not wearing the fauxhawk he’s been seen with lately. That was . . . unfortunate. Love him pretty unconditionally, but I was concerned about his judgement for a while there.
Ryan Reynolds is beautiful, but something has seemed off about his forehead lately. Receding hairline? My mind playing tricks on me? Botox? And if it’s the latter, will someone PLEASE make him stop?
Also, note to Blake Griffin: Up a size.
I think they all look like lovely young men. No too shiny or too tight. No sharkskin or lycra. All good. And the very very best part? They all look CLEAN. I know. My expectations have been lowered enough that evidence of personal hygiene is FAB to me now.
Saaarsgaaaard looks skiiiiny, but otherwise hot.
Sorry, but I love the cardigan sweater!
By contemporary menswear standards (and contra most of the commenters here), Ryan’s suit is the only one that fits right. Also, why shouldn’t basketball players be allowed to sport trendy or even, god forbid, fashionable looks? If Sean Avery is allowed a closet-full of Dries Van Noten suits, surely poor ol’ Blake Griffin can be allowed one cardigan/checked shirt combo, right? Here’s to reclaiming the cardigan from Mr. Rogers, who frankly, ruined it.
FYI, I’m a man, a clotheshorse, and frequently dismayed at the commentary on menswear at GFY.
So busy looking at Ryan, checking it all out, totally missed the shoes, but once pointed out, fug. He’s still hot, though, I would just ask him to kindly kick them off before he comes in the house…tee
Oh come on, be lenient! It´s Chuck in Chucks
Aw, hey! Kilowog is an awesome HERO, not a villain at all — see how he’s wearing a Green Lantern Corps uniform just like Hal’s? Comics geekery aside, it’s interesting to me how many different takes these guys have on what’s appropriate summer wear. It’s too hot for wool, obviously, and black is too formal for an action movie premiere. I agree that Wayne Brady looks kind of great and Zach Levi would have done better with a less formal suit with the sneakers. I’m still not sold on Ryan Reynolds as the lead, and here he looks so completely out of his depth, but then I’ve never really felt him. Maybe better shoes would have helped, or maybe not…
Ryan – your pants are too tight. Please take them off, and come home to mama.
Zachary – the Chucks and the suit don’t go together this time. Sorry bud. And, hi, you’re cute!
Trevor – thank you for helping to fund my paycheck by wearing Reeboks.
Blake – size up on the cardi, please. I am in awe of your dunking skills.
Wayne – where have you been? I miss you. What was Drew Carey’s variety show thing that he was on? That show was awesome.
Peter – any chance you could hook me up with your brother-in-law?
Trevor Donovan is leaving 90210????????? WTF?! First off, there was no spoiler alert on that fug girls and second why is he leaving?? They just were starting to take his character into interesting territory. I hate when they write off characters for no good reason. Don’t mess with the cast. It’s in a good place right now!
1. Fit. 2. Wear a belt with a suit. 3. Hands out of your pockets.
I have no idea who any of these young men are and I’m likely old enough to be a mom to each of them, but the look of a man at least trying to wear a suit is enough for me to want to get to know them all better. (And yes, that IS what I mean.)
I actually LOVE Blake’s outfit. I totally dig that look on guys. It’s hot. However, on 6’10″ dudes with bulging muscles who look like they’re Hulk-ing out of it? It’s just awkward. Up a size, dude.
Barry Gibb Talk Show…I freakin <3 you, Heather!
I’m really not into sneakers with a suit. What a lazy way of saying “I’ve dressed casual”. And all that grey in the first pic. It doesn’t even look like it’s really great material to add some zing. I much prefer the sneakers with the checked shirt and the deliciously tight cardy on what must be a delicious body. And please Mr. 3Piece, do up that top button. Another lazy effort.
This whole album screams “Dept store ad” where they’re trying to get all the sale items onto as few pages as possible…
I don’t think Ryan’s pants are too tight at all. Maybe Oz blokes just wear them tighter…. And yes, @TonyG, it’s definitely a guy behind that poster. You can see his trousers and shoes.
Ryan Reynolds’ suit is my favorite and it does fit him well, BUT, as one of the few American tall, broad-shouldered man types making movies right now, I personally would like him to leave the skinny trousers to the Alan Cumming types and embrace a good old-fashioned drapey cut and wear the hell out of it. But that’s just me.
I think Ryan Reynolds pretty much looks hot in anything so I’m a fan of the suit. The shoes are stupid but I tend to think that a lot of dudes are like “You got me to put on a suit that was made in the last 5 years you want me to care about shoes too? TOO MUCH.” Is that stereotyping? Whatever. Most dudes I know do not care about their shoes (I’m having a flashback to a friend attempting to get ready for a date or something and I’m trying to convince him that he shouldn’t wear his ugly old tennis shoes and do you not just own a nice pair of black shoes? For the love of pete).
Ryan looks great except for the shoes. Zach’s shoes are so distracting and tragic with his outfit.
Blake Griffin is way gorgeous in person
Wow, that is a whole lot of scroll down. Terribly disappointing…nothing like handsome dudes in decent clothes…and then nothing like finding out they’re wearing the wrong shoes.
They all need to go to the Robert Pattinson style school, he’s the only famous guy I see dressing elegantly for formal stuff, his suited style is perfection; and he’s cool casually – never over fussy, he just oozes class and style.
Kes, I must respectfully disagree. Every time I see paparazzi photos of Pattinson, I can’t help but think, “Is he homeless?” Or, “does he ever shower?” Ugh. I hate that unkempt, went-on-a-coke-bender-and-woke-up-in-my-neighbor’s-garage look. As someone noted above, at least all of the gentlemen pictured look clean.
Love the cardigan/shirt/tie combination – I just wish the sweater fit. And what’s wrong with baling hay?
I also have to disagree with you about Ryan Reynolds. That jacket fits him beautifully, and the pants are tight, but not too tight. My dad, an impeccable dresser, has always said suede is an acceptable summer shoe option for light-colored suits–I’m not sure I would have gone with those shoes in particular, but maybe a good brushing would have helped? In any case, as other commenters have noted, he is so tall and handsome and broad-shouldered that I’m not sure I actually care about the shoes. And as for Peter, just a little tug up on the tie and he’s sheer perfection!!
Wayne looks great, excellent color palette, but…hello, soul patch! I can’t believe no one’s mentioned it…unless they’re back in again? and are no longer utilized douchebag-markers…
Sorry about the lack of spoiler alert, but it’s been in the news for a while now that they’re writing him off. Plus I don’t consider summer casting news to be spoilery, but I don’t know HOW they’re writing him off, if that helps…
Ryan Reynolds: YYYYUUUUMMMM!!!
Zachary Levi: Just adorable! So cute!!! Is there ANY difference between him and Chuck Bartowski?
Blake Griffin: Totally stole that cardigan from my sister’s (whose a size 0) closet!
Blake Griffin was very Dan Humphrey. He does know that won’t be the way to best catch Boobs Legsly’s eye, right?
(Even if I think it was actually kinda’ cute.)
The first three need different shoes, and the guy in the cardigan needs it to be one size bigger. That said, they are all scrumptious and I wouldn’t kick them out of bed for eating toast.
This Guy is simply a hunk!!

I gotta go with Frances, several entries above–they all look as if they have showered in the last 24 hours, so they all get a thumbs up from me! PERSONAL HYGIENE FOR THE WIN!
I can’t approve of Chuck Taylors with a suit unless they are on the Tenth Doctor. Also, I like the cardigan on that basketball person, but as someone above said, just go up a size. Ryan Reynolds looks nice from the ankles up, so that is like, what, 97% good? Still a decent A grade.
Wayne Brady is the only one of the group with a shot at earning the title, Well-Dressed Man. The rest need to seriously meditate on important factors such as fit and accessories.
I will need to look at several photos of Intern George now to convince myself that all is right with the world.
Sarsgaaaaaard for the WIN! Although I think all the guys look pretty darn neat. They all showed some effort. No greasy hair, scrubbed faces, nice smiles, no attitude. A fine flock altogether.
Although I do think it’s funny that nobody wants to stand next to Blake Lively. Isn’t she on the tall side? Hee.
Ooh, Wayne Brady for the win. EsPECially if he’s talkin’ it up on The Barry Gibb Talk Show.
@shebrihart: The program you’re thinking of is “Whose Line Is It Anyway?” LOVED that show.
The sneakers have to go. Clinton Kelly recently spoke at a conference I attended, and his big advice to men moving into the workplace and out of grad school was to get clothes that fit (as in not XXXXL if you’re an L) and to buy real shoes. Some of these men need to look into the latter. FWIW, I like the fitted trousers and jackets just fine, though that cardigan was a bit too snug.
