Film by Mr Chris Floyd Words by Mr Chris Elvidge, Senior Copywriter, MR PORTER Ask Mr Andrew Weitz to describe his style in three words, and you could be forgiven for thinking that you'd misheard him. But when the talent agent - who works with numerous high-profile actors - says corporate, he means it. "I'm known in the entertainment community for being an impeccable dresser," he says, and with no misplaced pride; a feature in a recent edition of The Hollywood Reporter, entitled "Secrets of Hollywood's Best-Dressed Male Agents", which opened with an anecdote of Mr Weitz dining at the Thompson Hotel in Beverly Hills, described him as looking "less like a talent agent and more like a GQ editor fresh off the front row at Paris Men's Fashion Week".
It's a look that he describes as "conservative with an edge" - and while it ticks the corporate box, paying duty to the old-school, suited-and-booted image of a Hollywood agent, it's certainly not everyone's idea of conservative. Not that that concerns Mr Weitz. "When someone makes fun of what I'm wearing, I feed off of it," he laughs. "Everyone's so scared. Don't be scared!"
