Ryan Seacrest has expanded his menswear collection at Macy's. Most recently, he launched casual wear before the Rio Olympics.

He now has a fall/winter collection called Distinction. He released a video of three guys who care about fashion - just like him.

"Style is all about individual expression…feeling comfortable and confident makes a great impression," Seacrest told WWD. "We wanted to showcase everyday, ordinary young voices in our fall campaign, so that we could capture the spirit of what the fall season of Distinction is all about, which is that dressing smart and stylish doesn't have to be complicated. In fact, sometimes the simpler the better. Our collection is all about mixing and matching our different pieces together, or with things you may already have in your closet."
