Pharrell Williams

Joe Namath
Joe Namath, a.k.a. “Broadway Joe”, won Super Bowl III while he was quarterback for the New York Jets. He stepped out during Super Bowl XLVIII in his signature fur coat for the (premature) coin flip. If you want to recreate his look, you could check out thrift shops like this guy.

Richie Dimaso

Theodore Twombly
In Spike Jonze’s film Her, Theodore Twombly (Joaquin Phoenix) is a lonely man who, after buying an operating system with artificial intelligence, starts falling in love with it.

David Van Driessen
There are few people who have hope for the future of Beavis and Butt-head. However, David Van Driessen believes everyone has good in them. You just have to give them a second, third or fourth chance.
