Known as one of the most attractive men of all time and a fashion icon of the 50s, Elvis Presley reached the peak of popularity at a time when men never wore pink and considered it a feminine color.

The charming Elvis Presley was sometimes seen in glamorous and bright styles. For example, he wore this gold suit only once for a photo shoot for the cover of the magazine, and it is said that this $10,000 gold coat was ordered by Parker from Rodeo's tailor, Noddy Cohen, for Presley, and Elvis himself was not very interested in it.

One of the inseparable elements of Elvis Presley's style was his Hawaiian shirts. This style of shirts are popular for many men and are a good option for the heat of the summer season. He was perhaps one of the first men who dared to wear Hawaiian shirts in the 50s, which was very popular.
One style of clothing that Elvis wore for some of his performances was the flamboyant, fancy, and somewhat outlandish ensembles, which were custom designed for him. Elvis once said that "I wear clothes that are as flashy as possible to appear on stage, but I prefer more conservative clothes to be in public."
One of the models of shirts that were probably found in large numbers in Presley's wardrobe was Cuban collar shirts. In the previous decades, Cuban collar shirts belonged to the working class, but Elvis Presley, with the interest and continuity he showed in wearing this style of shirt, turned it into one of the most popular men's shirts, which continues to this day. For example, in this style from 1956, Elvis paired a red turtleneck with an open notch lapel, black pants, loafers, and argyle socks.
Sometimes it seemed that Presley wanted to leave a rebellious and rebellious style by choosing some things that were not common in the styles of that time. One of these cases was the long pompadour hairstyle, which before him was not fashionable among men at that time. On the other hand, Elvis often dyed his hair to darken his natural sandy blonde color. This hair coloring was another rebellion of his because men in the 50s often did not dye their hair.
