Today saw the release of GQ magazine’s annual ranking of the year’s top 50 Best Dressed Men and it was no surprise to see a couple of previous ‘Classy Gents of the Day’ performing strongly.

Perennial contender Charlie Watts put in another strong showing in 2011, appearing at number 22, but it was Tinie Tempah, described by the magazine as possessing ”true passion for elegance and proportions”, who really stole the show by capturing first place on the list.
