Samuel Beckett wouldn’t need to dream of fair to middling women in this dapper, if risky, get-up. He wouldn’t have to wait eternally for the hotties either.

Stark and minimal, just like his plays, this black/dark grey two-tone outfit is muted. You’d normally expect a flash of colour or brightness to offset that, which actually comes from his hair more than anything. His pocket square, while seemingly coloured, barely shows. Beckett’s clothing is stylish, while restrained like actors in Endgame, encased in man-sized urns.
