Famed writer, actor, rapper and producer Donald Glover has been named the Best Dressed Man of the Year by British GQ, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Glover’s relaxed approach to his threads has garnered him worldwide recognition for his apparel choices. The prestigious fashion publication cited his classic but chic style as what put him at the top of the heap.
“While his array of cheekily unbuttoned silk shirts and soft, striped V-neck knits over the past year get honorable mention, our favorite facet of his personal style has to be his commitment to anything-but-black tuxedos – especially the regal, all-purple Gucci rig he wore to the Emmys in September. Our king,” GQ's editors wrote. "In short, Donald Glover is a new-wave renaissance man – and his style is superbly 'wavey' too, providing all the Seventies-inspired vibes a modern man needs in his wardrobe right now."

Other prominent hip-hop artists, like Travis Scott, who ranked fifth on the list, were also highly praised for their intricate fashion sense.
"With a penchant for oversized plaid shirts, cargo pants, diamond-studded grilles and even the occasional overall, it’s hard to deny he’s hip-hop’s most influential streetwear force right now," GQ said of Scott's style.
John Legend came in at eighth, while British grime artist Skepta took home the tenth spot. Migos' Offset received an honorable mention.
Glover has yet to respond to the honor.
