It is almost Christmas, which means it's time to tear open all the windows of the Glamorous Solicitor advent calendar at once.

Newcomers should note that no lawyer gets to become a Glamorous Solicitor simply by being ugly (or boringly beautiful). It takes something much rarer. A glam should always have the option to look like any other dull lawyer, but instead their profile photo will show that they have taken a different, braver path. Questionable hair, sartorial flair or a peculiar glare, all can win you a golden frame.

And so to this year’s contenders, the men (and only men this time, sadly) who marched to the beat of their own stylistic drum in 2017. Look upon them in wonder, lust and shock. They dared to dream. That Hitler moustaches were due a comeback. That slumping over a cocktail screamed 'louche'. And that terrorist chiq was a thing.

After round one finishes next Thursday the six candidates with the most votes will go through. Click here to vote, for up to six contenders at a time, as many times as your index finger can take it.
