The ‘Designer Beard’:
Inspired by Marco from Marco Polo
The designer beard became popular in the 1980s when rugged men were the most desired.
This style was worn and reinvented by singer George Michael, actor Don Johnson and, in the 2010s, rapper Drake. Since then it’s been adopted by many others, including Netflix’s very own Marco Polo.
Set in a world of greed, betrayal, sexual intrigue and rivalry, “Marco Polo” is based on the famed explorer’s adventures in Kublai Khan’s court. If you want the mo, without the massive commitment, follow Marco Polo’s lead and go for a more rugged moustache and a subtle beard combo.
