Get Carter is a British crime film set in London and follows a gangster character Jack Carter (Caine), to find out what happened to his brother Carter travels back to his home town. This violent crime thriller is one of Caine's most memorable rolls along with Alfie, Zulu, Gambit and Italian Job.
Every man wants to be him and every woman wants to be with him! Michael Caine was a massive fashion icon in the 60's and 70's its not hard to find him wearing amazing clothes in or out of films but I chose Get Carter for one of the less obvious choices.
Get the look....Get Carter!
Suit -
The first thing to look at when getting the 'Get Carter' look is, a suit preferably a blue suit as that's the most iconic outfit from the film. Dark blue suit, with a light blue shirt, dark blue tie and some amazing cuff links.
The iconic blue suit isn't difficult to find whether your looking for original or high street (next and moss bros), I found the one below on a website called tweed mans vintage. This suit is £79 for a 2 piece blue suit.

Cufflinks -
In the image above there is a great picture of Mr Caine holding a shot gun wearing some lovely cuff links. To get your self some cuff links like that you need to get some vintage ones, now I know I keep mentioning Watch the cloth moth but I just love their hand picked items.
