GQ Magazine for their October issue published a top ten list of stylish men, and shortlisted are Hollywood elite Jack Nicholson, Paul Newman and US president John F. Kennedy.

Whilst women tend to go for pretty faces, men find an entirely different set of characteristics attractive. GQ (US edition) comes out this week. www.gq.com
