I don't normally care how a guy dresses, prob. because I don't like guys to be too fashion-y.
But my favorite outfit on a guy will be something James Bond-ish: a crisp white shirt (first two buttons unbuttoned) with fitted black trousers. Colin Farrell worked the look very well in The Recruit in a scene when he was bartending part-time. But as simple as it is, that look is not for everybody--if the guy doesn't have a built upper body, he'll end up looking like a waiter.
I also like burgendy or gunmetal gray (with pinstripes) shirts on men, or a knit sweater with thick vertical lines.
Speaking of cinematic references, I think Hugh Jackman exemplifies style in Swordfish. He managed to pull off what I consider to be the holy trinity in a men's wardrobe: a suit, a v-neck sweater in black, and a fantastically toned upper body that doesn't need the disguise offered by a wifebeater.
