Sieben auf einen Streich – Fragen an Nicola Linza
Style icon: It is a very personal thing. Style is about individuality and confidence. I will notice what is out there per se but I always stand on my own judgment and accord.
Suits are … a powerful tool in the male arsenal. Suits of fine fabrication, cut and construction are essential (and the best of them are bespoke.)
Favorite accessory … my family ring. I limit accessories. I don’t believe in being over accessorized walking around like a fruitcake.
Men need: a powerful presence, an attractive and complete masculine package. Ideally, good looks, a tall well-defined build, and a sharp intelligence, a strong individual personal style, a masculine sense of strength, quality, reliability, trustworthiness, a willingness to learn, a deft sophistication …and a strong sex drive. There is nothing attractive about an ugly, dim-witted, half-ass man.
I like buying … the best of quality, simplicity and detail.
German men are … precise.
Women should … not tell men what to wear. A woman’s sense of style is feminine. If a man relies on a woman to tell him what to wear, he is in serious trouble.
Manner of Man is a deep and serious project that I treat as Pier Paolo Pasolini would a film, or Thomas Mann would a written work. I delve into the depths of man’s reasoning; examine the core fight all men face between good and evil in both conduct and behaviour. I consider all of this from the standpoint of the relationship of personal style to a man’s psyche. I focus on considerations that men find appealing that pertain to quality, intelligence, sexuality, and our individual selection processes.
Nicola Linza über sich: I am an intense, highly charged man, dedicated to living well. I am very confident in my intelligence, sexuality and masculinity. I absorb all the quality life force the world has to offer daily. I take that force in and hold its essence in me; transforming that into pure energy. I release that energy back to the world in a controlled fashion. I am no different from your basic generator. It is for me a regular cyclic action feeding off life feeding my mind and body. This is a powerful transforming experience; it means I am never spent. This forms the basis for my evolving personal style.
Schlagwörter: manner of man, Nicola Linza
man könnte meinen: Was für ein Selbstbewusstsein?
Man könnte aber auch meinen: What a schmock!

Nicola a parfaitement expliqué et explicité ce qu’il aime et ce qu’il est.
To be precise, being a German: Schnösel!
Here is a ballsy good-looking man’s man who just also happens to be a stylish genius.
Pretty boy! Beautiful man.
This is a lot advice. I need to say I love reading this a great deal. It helps me to get better grasp on the subject. It is all well and good written. I shall definitely find these content material so fascinating. Hopefully you can supply more in the future.
It appears to me @LP that his being smart, handsome and confident is something that makes you very nervous and insecure.
This man is my idea of an ideal man. He is tall, stylish, elegant, gorgeous, arousing, haunting and compelling.
A discriminating intelligence and capability, he is one of the great editors of our digital time. He and his team are visionaries for men’s lifestyle publication doing it in a way that is so old money manner that it seems edgy and new …a way no one else is capable of doing today.
