"Name: Tyson Chandler\r\nOccupation: Center for the New York Knicks; Olympic Gold Medalist\r\nBeware of Heights: For the California-born hoops star -- who moved to Manhattan a year ago -- fashion can be frustrating. &amp;quot;Some looks just don&amp;apos;t work for a 7-foot guy! I can&amp;apos;t wear, let&amp;apos;s say, loud, checkered pants. I can&amp;apos;t wear big, bold prints because it&amp;apos;s too much material and doesn&amp;apos;t look good,&amp;quot; says the dad of three, 29. &amp;quot;But some designers like Rick Owens and Alexander Wang make my length.&amp;quot; Phew.\r\nPin-terest: &amp;quot;I love brooches. They give such a different look to my outfits. It makes a statement. You can wear something so plain and put on a brooch and it brings it all together,&amp;quot; says Chandler, who calls his style &amp;quot;edgy but business savvy.&amp;quot; And his wardrobe picks depend on where his NBA games bring him: &amp;quot;Sometimes I&amp;apos;m in a suit, other times I&amp;apos;ll be in a blazer with drop crotch pants. Sometimes I&amp;apos;ll just wear a button down and jeans. It varies depending on which city I&amp;apos;m in.&amp;quot;\r\nHappy Wife, Happy Life: Chandler&amp;apos;s outfits require the approval of his &amp;#xFC;ber-stylish wife, Kimberly. &amp;quot;She&amp;apos;s my mirror. I don&amp;apos;t have to look in a mirror when she&amp;apos;s home! I run all my outfits by her before I leave the house. I&amp;apos;ll walk out and I just know by her expression if it&amp;apos;s a good outfit or not,&amp;quot; says the 2012 Defensive Player of the Year.\r\nQuote: &amp;quot;I&amp;apos;ve always been interested in fashion but New York definitely heightened it. I walk around the city a lot and take pictures. It always depends on the vibe, but New York definitely influences my outfits.&amp;quot;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
