Complementary and functional garments. Complimenting someone's personal features, as well as their lifestyle, is my biggest goal. I strive to perfect this collaboration - and to achieve an aesthetically pleasing garment for each of my clients.
PREFERENCES
Simplicity. People have complicated enough lives as it is - I strive to eliminate this stress. Sticking to staples and neutralizing investment pieces is the best answer to a "dynamic wardrobe." However, I'm not opposed to some flair here and there!
RECREATION
Mixing and matching new statement pieces with your essential go-to's is key. Timeless recreation, to me, is finding this equilibrium.

Practicality. I feel most accomplished when my client creates something with significant meaning and purpose. Whether it is for his everyday wardrobe or a momentous life event, we will work in tandem to create garments that are practical, appropriate, and functional for any situation.
PREFERENCES
Simplicity. Our process is the most fun when the small, subtle details combine to produce a garment that has character similar to that of its owner; a unique button, contrasting highlight thread, or colorful lining can be the finishing detail you never knew you needed.
RECREATION
When I'm not in the showroom, you can find me partaking in Dallas's ever changing dining scene. A requirement to begin an appointment with me is to tell me either your favorite go-to casual spot, or indulgent locale for a night of celebration. Be prepared for a few suggestions of my own as well!

You never have to worry about fitting in when you are custom made. Confidence is the best trait to have in any situation, and though it comes from within, feeling great on the outside can help you reach that perfect level of confidence.
PREFERENCES
Simple and dynamic. I want to find you pieces that not only bring you confidence and pride in what you have on, but I also want to create a wardrobe that lasts and can be styled in endless ways. After spending all day at the office I want you to be able to switch the slacks out for some jeans or a stylish jogger and still feel incredible in a casual look custom fit for YOU.
RECREATION
Combine work and play effortlessly. Don't be scared to trade those loafers out for a pair of Yeezys and take your look from sleek to the street. I want you to have fun with your looks and watch your creativity grow as we continue to work together as a team. Custom clothing is an endless world where you can think outside the box and have fun. My main goal is to always create a fun, exciting, and memorable experience that will result in all eyes being on you whenever you walk in the room.

Simplicity - but make it your own! We have busy enough lives as it is, so I want to make dressing your best a no brainer in your day-to-day life. Nothing makes dressing easier than having a capsule wardrobe of basics that can mix and match with anything. Adding in fun, unique details such as lining, monogram or buttons adds a little extra flare to make it yours and only yours.
RECREATION
Versatility! Your wardrobe should be able to seamlessly transform into whatever your day holds. If you're heading from work to patio drinks in the Texas heat, throw on a bright colored linen blazer with your button down and trousers for a more playful vibe. It's always nice to have some great statement pieces in your wardrobe to compliment the essentials.

Versatility. A classic navy suit can be paired with endless shirts and ties to transform into a whole new look. Let's start by building your basics and nailing your perfect fit to ensure that you walk out of the showroom with a wardrobe that's ready for any occasion.
PREFERENCES
Self-expression. Style your closet. Style your life. I believe that your wardrobe is the best way to create a visual representation of who you are. Together we can upgrade and elevate your style with a Knot Standard garment that's as unique and one of a kind as you are. Let me help you style your wardrobe to lead to a more confident life.
RECREATION
I strive for casual confidence and the ability to walk into any room and own it, whether that be the boardroom or the local bar. With that being said, casual doesn't always mean a t-shirt and jeans. Try a short sleeve button up with our performance fit pants or a sweater and textured trousers for a change. Heading to a happy hour straight from work? Switch the button up for a t-shirt and the loafers for sneakers. Cheers!

Peter Morrissey said it best: "Dress like you're embracing life, not hiding from it!"
Besides working with my clients, there is nothing else I'd rather do than dress up to enjoy the culinary delicacies and interesting people of Dallas. Rocking a delicate linen shirt with a deconstructed blazer is the perfect way of enjoying the weekend in style.
