One of music's best kept secrets (and subject of Complex's Feb/March 2010 fashion feature) exploded onto the scene last year and was the talk of the music and style world. One look at Theophilus London is enough to challenge your thoughts on how a man of the 21st century should dress. In these times full of gaudy jewelry, celebrity stylists, and the ever lazy reliance on all-black everything, Theophilus stands out in a good way.
