JIM GOLDSTEIN lives the ideal Los Angeles lifestyle: he resides in one of the most beautiful John Lautner houses ever made; he’s a very visible NBA fan; he hangs out with celebrities and models; and he doesn’t shy away from his obvious obsession with fashion. Every season — simply out of curiosity — he’s a front row fixture at all the major men’s and women’s fashion shows. He also wears the most eccentric men’s clothes in ways that shake up — and reinvent — the image of the lonely cowboy. photography by MAX FARAGO style by MEL OTTENBERG
