According to the latest research, the modern man spends more money on clothes, shoes and grooming products each month compared to women. With this in mind, we take a look at the top 10 male style icons, they include royalty, music royalty and actors in the mix.

Singer Ed Sheeran appears at number eight, whilst he regularly hits the charts with his songs, it's not often he is found in a style chart. Meanwhile it seems the older the celebrity, the more style they have. Actor Leonardo DiCaprio is at number four on the chart whilst the top three consist of two actors in their 50s and a sportsman in his 40s.

George Clooney and Tom Cruise find themselves high up the chart with fashion expert, Josh Newis-Smith, commenting, "With Tom Cruise leading the style icon pack at 55, followed closely by David Beckham at 42, and George Clooney at 56, it seems like a fine wine, style does get better with age."

The research has also found that men are spending over £300 more a year, on clothes and shoes, than women. Contrary to the myth, they actually spend more on clothes, than they do on sports tickets and drinks with friends.

Despite spending more than women each month, men apparently don't like the process of shopping and are 'reluctant' returners, meaning anything they buy is likely to make it into, and remain in, their wardrobes.

The research was conducted by Barclaycard.
