Monkey's not sure which is the biggest shock - that Evgeny Lebedev is number 39 in GQ's 2010 best dressed men list, or that he was even higher – 27 – in last year's rundown. Having taken a look at some of the London Evening Standard senior executive director's outfits, we're not sure we would have put him quite so high. Lebedev's look is described by David Furnish as "imperial elegance with a modern twist". Presumably – unlike the Standard – it's a style that doesn't come for free. We can only assume that GQ editor Dylan Jones is angling to become the next editor of the Independent, should the Lebedev and his father Alexander ever seal the long-mooted deal. GQ also has a worst dressed men list, and in with a bullet at number 6 is former Daily Mirror editor, ITV talkshow host and, er, GQ columnist Piers Morgan. Yep, sounds about right.
