Welcome to the site dedicated to The WDM.
Welcome to the site dedicated to The WDM.
During conversations, I'm often stopped and asked, "What is a 'WDM'??" -----> WDM = Well-Dressed Male
A term I thought up years ago, after realizing how many men don't know or care how to dress well. The scene so sparse in fact that when a nicely dressed boy was actually spotted, the sighting sparked a tiny celebration amongst us girls.
That's what this blog is about, appreciating boys in nice outfits. It's pretty simple.
My WDMs range from Modern (suits, street/casual wear) to Period costuming to Fantasy and Cosplay costuming. My only requirement is that you be male, and that I like your style, whatever it is. We applaud you all for caring about what you look like. Or appearing to care about what you look like. :D
Also expect to see hair-related posts.. I'm a fan of boys with fun/nice/interesting hair.
I use my term 'WDM' to promote a good thing, going forth through the internet with images taken from red carpet events, videos, magazines, films, shows, candids, whatever! to use those pics for good, and not evil.
Awesome for your eyeballs. You're welcome.

Takers
Yes everyone is after something... And I found six of them in Takers. That's more than Inception, wows...
At a premiere. My favorite here is Idris. I LOVE Idris and his three-piece ensemble. The hat!!! So awesome.
...and then there's Hayden. Not better styling than his character, but then it's definitely better than Anakin-wear!
If I get my hands on a copy of this on, I'm doing some caps. I need more pics of all of these guys' costumes.

Won Bin
For starters, again with the cig. Thumbs down to making out with cigs going on, let's clean it up, Won!!
I should also add that I love his hair.
Have I mentioned that I enjoy boys who accessorize? Like the wrist
wear on Won here, and the white belt.

Leonardo DiCaprio - Inception
I've always liked Leo. That Leo backlash some years back, was dumb. Let's backlash against people who actually deserve it, like Paris and/or Perez. Not against people who do this:
Leo's character Cobb wore a bit of Casual WDM in the movie, and a closer look at some of that would reveal the nice articles of clothing and the tailoring. Don't have to be wearing a tie to be WDM!
I like this pic. I like to imagine that they are on filming break,
and Ken and Leo are discussing how good they look.
And Tom is ignoring them because he already knows how good he looks.
I like these jackets. Way to look Casually "thuggish" in perfectly tailored leather!
And when Leo wasn't Casual, he was also awesome:
The Beretta compliments the suit, as it should.
My favorite thing worn by Cobb is not really seen well until the end!! So sad. It was that beautiful suit he wore for the plane ride:
But! He came out of the jacket on the plane. But still this is nice, that pattern on both the shirt and tie are a nice compliment to that jacket. Which you see...
Back on him at the airport! I. Love.This. Suit.
I couldn't find a full body shot from the film, but I found some behind-the-scenes:
I don't know if there will be a bunch of costuming extras on the DVD/BluRay discs are not, but
I'll tell you what I do know...
If Inception doesn't get a buttload of GG and/or Oscar noms, we're going OFF...

Tom Hardy
Yeah, that's exactly what it is. Sweet Geebus, look at this:
Crisp. First of all, that is some effing great lighting on this and the overall shot. And man, I love a great coat, I swear I do. Especially when worn by Tom Hardy with those lips. I think we all remember those lips from Nemesis, too---What, huh?? Right, back to coats... But yeah, I've always had a thing for the navy-style, or pea coat. I think this one is a bit longer, (saw a different picture of the same shoot) so I forget what you'd technically call the longer ones, buuuuuuut... doesn't matter, cause Tom Hardy's lips!! And the rest of him. Wonder if I will repeat that pic from JGL's post....
Dunno, lemme see,is Tom Hardy in it?? Bam! -->

Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I wish there'd been a full body shot of this suit, but apparently mid-torso-up is good enough to make it onto this blog! I like the lapels, the pinstripe, and the tie. And it's interesting that shirt pattern was paired with that jacket or that tie. I like it!
Sleeves rolled up, about to go to work. :D A shot from the Inception set. And look, another WDM from the same film. I'll definitely be getting to you, Tom Hardy...

On the Runway...
I have no idea who this designer is, or this model....but that's a fine suit!! The skinny tie is a better choice for this look, IMO. I love the design here. :)

Will Smith
He knows it's awesome, too! I say it's Jada Magic.
It's notoriously NOT easy to rock the plaid prints, but Will pulls this off, no problem.
Not only did he wear the print, he wore the three-piece! Is it Jada Power!??
No, it's just WILL SMITH.
Nice.
Dark on darks will always be one of my favorite looks. And oh yeah, I loved Hancock! XD

Blair Underwood - The Event
Blair Underwood, you are POTUS.
I've seen five episodes so far, and I have to say that I like everything you are doing. (also it was nice to see you in person at CC!) I particularly like this suit.
Love that tie....and this look!
Nice!!
Justin Timberlake
People know I love JT, so wondered why I hadn't given him a post already. Hey, a girl's busy, you know! And there is plenty of time and plenty of JT to go around for everyone.
"But I don't like/I HATE Justin Timberlake!"
Uh-oh, guess what! Doesn't matter. Everybody just relax yourself, and look at this:
Casual wear sexy. There's some good stuff going on within the layers here.
Denim jeans with leather belt. Paired with: Top layer, great coat with fur trim. Second layer, leather vest or jacket (can't see the arms). Third layer, casual plain white tee/tank. Fourth layer, Justin Timberlake. Mmm.
Notorious sweater and sweater vest wearer....
...and nobody rocks the white like Justin. :)
Uh-oh, look who just got more awesome. Also a notorious three-piece wearer. Go on, click on that pic and get a closer look at one of the ten most stylish men...

Ken Watanabe - Inception
I knew the film's costuming was going to be outstanding from the beginning, when Ken Watanabe appeared wearing this:
LOVE THIS. It's a traditional nagajuban blended with modern menswear, according to Jeffrey.
But I do love Mal, and that kick-ass dress. But this blog isn't about the girls, Mal! :)
That chick is always interfering...
I'm annoyed that I don't have great still of ALL of Ken's costumes. While there's some points where Arthur appears to try to dress down, Saito does no such thing. Man, we could eat Ken Watanabe alive.
I don't have a great still of this suit, but I have a cool behind-the-scenes shot!
I vote that we kidnap and keep Ken Watanabe here, forever and ever, so that he may make movies in which he wears obscenely beautiful clothing, and very sexily lean on things with hands in pockets!!
I need more shots of all of his stuff!!! But I'll update when I do get more. :)
That's right, Ken. You and Joseph are my favorite Inception boys.
