Is Akshay Kumar the world's worst dressed man?

October 21, 2009 12:25 IST

Akshay Kumar could be a strong contender for the world's worst dressed men list -- at least that's what the editor of a British magazine believes.

Jeremy Langmead, editor of Esquire magazine, has said that the 42-year-old actor might be one of India's most successful stars, but he doesn't score too well when it comes to style.

He added that Akshay's enthusiasm for the latest fashions -- particularly ones that involve shiny bits attached to them -- makes him a strong contender for the world's worst dressed men list, reports Times Online.

While Akki, just like his contemporaries from Hollywood, loves to sport the latest looks shown on the catwalks of Paris and Milan, his pictures on Google reveal some of the most unappetising outfits worn by modern man, said Langmead.

His oversized sunglasses looks as if borrowed from Victoria Beckham, day-glo hoodies stolen from Kanye West, slogan T-shirts from Henry Holland, and lots of shiny, torso-revealing accessories that remind one just a little bit too much of Daffyd from Little Britain, the literary expert said.

Do you agree with this assessment? What do you think?
