That being said, it's a tossup between my Assos bib shorts and my Louis Garneau bib knickers as to which piece of kit has generated the most compliments. So maybe they're my most "stylish"?

Gotta disagree with you here, Bob. It seems incongruous, on a site devoted to lauding the beauty of bikes, that its assumed you look like a total schlep on said steeds.
I'm with Colker. Look up "cycling" and "stylish" and two names come to my mind: Coppi and Anquetil.
Bibs are more about function and comfort for me, but jerseys are where you have lot more leeway for expression. The Rapha Paul Smith "La Corsa Rosa" is another grail jersey and I like the throwback ethos of Velobici's jerseys.
