Which is the most stylish – little dogs or so-called Alpha males? No prizes for guessing the answer

Here we see Willow cooking in a cupcake-decorated apron. The pattern on Willow's apron also doesn't match (see how the cupcake cuts off at the edge). However, this apron does not pretend to be something it's not. Points for cuteness and authenticity. pic.twitter.com/wzHbGZqeU9

Tommy's outfit is confusing: a white jacket with a built-in liner and fake mouton collar, combined with pre-distressed jeans made with a tab at the crotch.
London's outfit similar, but chic. Quilted jacket with grey hoodie, raw denim jeans, and a nice harness. Much better. pic.twitter.com/qSmURvud7i

All-black outfits can look chic, but Jake's outfit involves a generic coat with black jeans and blue sneakers. It lacks aesthetic direction.
London is back with a similar outfit, but again, much better. Padded, minimalist coat with grey trim and black beanie. Chic and modern. pic.twitter.com/mYX0NOciPU

Contrary to what many think, hoodies are great. They're warm, cozy, and have working-class charm. However, Tate's hoodie is too thin and tight.
By contrast, Wilson's hoodie is thicker and looser. Looks closer to the mid-century Champion originals that gave this style meaning. A+ pic.twitter.com/BolFVTcgAv

Pre-distressing isn't necessarily bad, but the detailing on Rogan's cap isn't convincingly done. Combined with the modern military-inspired design, it's a clumsy expression of ruggedness.
Echo's cap isn't special, but it lacks pretense. Looks very 1990s J. Crew. Again 10/10 pic.twitter.com/wF3rD5CJ6R

The act of smoking a cigar looks bad when it's too obviously performative. Tate's expensive lighter, flashy gold jacket, fat cigar, and seat at a gambling table is all too cliche.
Teddy shows how it's done. He looks relaxed, natural, and not posed. Cap & sunglasses look great pic.twitter.com/jYYJZtpzv7

Justin's sunglasses, like his clothes, are too small for his face.
Diesel knows that, if you're going to err one way or the other, bigger sunglasses are the way to go. Not only are they more protective, but they make you look and feel like a movie star. pic.twitter.com/6DW4Y3D4z8

One final beautiful takedown from the internet’s favourite style guru.
Finally, members of the Proud Boys have been wearing these skull masks to protect their identity. Unfortunately, they have a tendency to slip across the face over the course of a day, ruining the placement of the nose and scary grin. pic.twitter.com/F3eDJ9lr7R

Kilo's bread mask isn't as scary, but it has holes for his eyes and nose. This way, he knows that his facial proportions are always correct from the vantage of the viewer. 10/10 pic.twitter.com/m49ko2tfpf
