How to put it together
- 1
Put on the red dress shirt, leaving the top three to four buttons undone to expose your chest.
- 2
Put on the white dress pants, securing them with a black leather belt if needed.
- 3
Put on the white suit jacket, pulling the red shirt collar out so it rests flat over the jacket's lapels.
- 4
Layer the gold chain necklaces around your neck so they hang visibly in the open collar area.
- 5
Place the folded white pocket square into the left breast pocket of the suit jacket.
- 6
Slick your hair back with gel and carry your prop weapon to complete the look.
Makeup & hair
Slick your hair back and slightly to the side using a heavy-hold hair gel or pomade for that greasy, 1980s Miami look. Keep facial hair clean-shaven or styled into a very light, neat stubble.
