Beards are here to stay!
by Aki Choklat


A New York Times article from a few months ago describes the emerging of the new bearded sex symbols. This reaffirms that having a beard has gone mainstream...which in our opinion is fantastic! One cannot swing a dead cat (or a beard trimmer) in Shoreditch or Soho without hitting someone with one.

Our top 10 beards:

Walter Van Beirendonck
Costello Tagliapietra
George Clooney (in Syriana)
Robert Wyatt (especially in the ’74 TOTP)
Richard Karn
Stefano Pilati
Archie Bronson Outfit
Lordi
Bruce Weber
Arvo Part
