By now, you've probably heard Justin Timberlake croon about his "Suit & Tie," but did you know the stylish singer also had a hand in creating the bespoke attire he wears in his latest music video?

That's right, J.T. has collaborated with none other than Tom Ford—you know, the designer responsible for suiting up Timberlake and Bradley Cooper at the recent SAG Awards—to create a snazzy selection of eveningwear, shirts, suits, ties and even shoes for his upcoming album, The 20/20 Experience.

And judging by the video, which stars Timberlake sporting a fierce suit by the designer and flashing the Tom Ford label of his tasteful tie, we can expect some seriously dashing style from the pair. 

This isn't the first time the William Rast designer has teamed up with Ford; the duo worked together to create everything from Timberlake's dapper tux to his grosgrain-trimmed patent loafers at his wedding.

But it appears Ford is doing more than just design for The 20/20 Experience: The multitalented designer, who logged time as a film director for A Single Man, even created the "Suit & Tie" artwork, which features a close-up of (you guessed it!) a Tom Ford tux and bow-tie.

We'll have to wait until the album's March 19 release date to see what else Ford has up his stylish sleeves for Timberlake's album, but we have no doubt this bromance will up the ante for men's suits, ties and overall appearance.
