So, the MODA fashion show is just around the corner! And I don't know about you but I'm pretty excited. Fashion, fun and fancy dress - what more could a guy ask for?

Yet, with that enthusiasm comes a twinge of nerves. What on earth am I going to wear? How in a sea of fashionistas will I stand out from the crowd? Well don't you get your knickers in twist - I've got us covered, with price-tags ranging all over the spectrum depending on how much you plan to spend. Let's start off with the basics - the suit.

This season we've seen colored suits all over the place. Runways, red carpets, and city streets - adding a splash of monochromatic color to your fits is all the rage. With that in mind, here are some stellar options:

Investment Piece | Gucci | $4,300

Expensive Piece | Masion Margiela | $552 (down from $2,300)

Next, there's the shirt. The wonderful thing about a colorful suit is that there's a heck of a lot less pressure to spice up the rest of the outfit. For shirts, I'd go for simple white, with a little bit of a twist if possible:

Investment Piece | Maison Margiela | $275 (down from $550)

Expensive Piece | Givenchy | $186 (down from $466)

Bargain Piece | H&M | $14.99

Now, to to finish off the top half we've got to think about ties. Again, because of the colored suit I'd argue for sleek, narrow and simple. But that most certainly should not translate as boring! Here are some perfect picks:

Investment Piece | Saint Laurent | $265

Expensive Piece | Lanvin | $99

Bargain Piece | The Tie Bar |  $19

Last up: shoes! This is definitely an area to avoid black. Brown shoes, especially light hazel, are immensely versatile, and almost always look ultra stylish (obviously to be worn with no-show socks). Here are a couple that jump out:

Investment Piece | Berluti | $1,470

Expensive Piece | Thom Browne | $580

And there you have it! An ensemble fit for a true fashion icon. Can't wait to see you all sporting your stunning outfits on Friday - remember, the models aren't the only ones who ought to be strutting their stuff!
