The DJ and producer is pretty amped. \u201cJ.Crew is always fucking cool,\u201d Ronson says. \u201cWhen I was in high school, the J.Crew catalog was such a big deal. And when they opened that first store on Prince Street, I remember being there, and it was the first time that I saw a cool pair of tapered pants. I remember buying that and a turtleneck that I wore every day.

So J.Crew was my style bible when I was a kid.\u201d She also has her own opinions on Ronson\u2019s style. \u201cHe&#8217;s very elegant and gentlemanly and old world, but also now more modern and just so classic and handsome.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Ronson laughs, and jumps in to credit her, \u201cGrace has added some much-needed chic elegance to my style. Actually, someone asked my friend Josh Homme from Queens of the Stone Age\u2014we interviewed each other for Esquire\u2014 the same question you just asked: How do you describe Mark\u2019s style? And he said, \u2018He dresses like a mobster on vacation.\u2019 Because at that time, I was wearing lots of polos, and I did look like a Soprano. I was leaning into that. Then I met Grace, and she brought stately, chic elegance to me.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"mark ronson, grace gummer, deacon phillippe, ryan phillippe\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"1200\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/sjjC30ch0XXvKmQdyYH1Sg--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTEyMDA7Y2Y9d2VicA--\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/esquire_269\/9832539c60df355304fc08f6af26f579\"\/><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"caption\">Ronson and Gummer with Deacon and Ryan Phillippe. <\/span> <span class=\"photo-credit\">Ben Rosser\/BFA.com<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">All three of us chat style for a little longer, and then I ask Ronson what\u2019s next for him. \u201cI have my book Night People coming out next week,\u201d he says proudly. \u201cMy book is all about downtown New York in the &#8217;90s\u2014me coming up as a DJ and the nightclub scene. Now, I&#8217;ve somehow gone full back into the &#8217;90s and DJing two gigs a week. So it&#8217;s a fun, hectic week. The only difference is that now I&#8217;m 50, not 23, so I&#8217;m just trying to keep up. But New York is always super exciting this time of year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Ronson and Gummer stay for the rest of J.Crew\u2019s meticulously curated cocktail hour and dinner before heading to his first DJ gig. And as he goes to relive his 20s through ample dance and partying, I take my 20s-going-on-50s self to bed. Being one of the Night People is hard.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>You Might Also Like<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links.&#8221; Mark Ronson is totally down to talk about how fucking cool he thinks J.Crew is\u2014but first, a drink.
