What Does Marsellus Wallace Look Like?

Good men, you remember the scene: The Podunk diner is at a standstill as Jules points his gun at Ringo’s bag, demanding back the wallet that was taken from him. Ringo asks, “Which one is it?” Raising his eyebrow, Jules responds, quite blasé, “The one that says ‘Bad Mother Fucker’ ”. Yeah, thanks. It is cool. And so the 90’s hit, Pulp Fiction set ablaze every man’s deep desire to grab a 9mm and wreak havoc, screaming, “And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you!" It's something we all wish we could do. Now, you may never be able to top or level Samuel L. Jackson for being the biggest badass ever born, but you can still look just as sharp. Pulp Fiction may have dawned a sardonic new age of filmmaking, however, people often fail to see the overall chicness that the fashion within it represents. The clean-cut line of the mobsters’ suits as well as the straight ties are classic yet bold, and because the overall look is so uncluttered and frank, it slims and silhouettes the body to look striking and fearless. There is nothing excessive or unnecessary or doubtful. It asks for nothing but respect, and there lies an astounding presence. The seemingly reserved and calm look embodies the unbelievable power and charisma that men can hold, with or without a gun or a sweet codename like The Wolf. Does Samuel L. Jackson look like he’s trying? Does Uma Thurman complain about what John Travolta is wearing? No. They are simply there in their suit, getting their jobs done while looking so effortlessly modern. So whether you're the bad guy or the good guy or somewhere in between, there’s no reason for you to stress about the mixing and matching or what hat to wear. If anything, simple is best, and confidence is key. Then you can be damn sure that when you walk through that door and into a room, you’ll be making an impression like a bullet through the head.
