CLIENT STORIES
MIKE B.
Finance Executive, NYC
Michael is a 6’6” guy, so finding clothing he felt good in--that fit both his height and weight properly--was exceedingly rare. After trying on his first custom suit and shirt with us, he was blown away: “...the first time I put it on, it just fit like a glove.”

Fit, personal style and functionality; creating garments that incorporate these three themes is my goal.
PREFERENCES
A bit of contrast to make garments unique; complimentary, classic customizations to make them timeless.
RECREATION
For weekend attire change things up by throwing on a deconstructed jacket, a linen button down and a pair of chinos. Bets on, heads will turn.

I view style as an essential component of your individual brand and believe having a well-developed style leads to success in both personal and professional life.
PREFERENCES
Classics are key. Pair a beautiful cloth with classic styling and a customized fit. You'll create a look that will never go out of style - let the cloth and the fit do the talking.
RECREATION
Play up the season. A linen blazer with lightweight cotton chinos for a summertime rooftop glass of bubbly... a tweed sport jacket and moleskin trousers for an autumn evening dining al fresco. Have fun with the seasons and dress for the occasion.

EMPHASIS
With over 4 years experience in the custom clothing industry, I concentrate on the shape and silhouette you prefer for your garments. Clothes should flatter your body and style is more about the overall effect of an outfit. Having an appreciation for quality, construction, and service I believe in Buying [certain pieces] for Life and as a former engineer, remember "Good, Fast, Cheap: Pick Two."
PREFERENCES
I have a respect for tradition and enjoy putting things together in new ways. My experiments take the form of small details, but I tend to recommend timeless customizations for versatility. Feeling confident in what you wear is important - get to know your style, wear colors you like, learn from others, and explore. There are some rules, once you learn them you can bend/break them.
RECREATION
One shouldn't have to sacrifice comfort to look well dressed. Dress for the occasion and just like you have different sides to your personality - that can translate through your clothes and how you wear them. I can help you look authentic, easy, and elegant in your clothes no matter the setting.

Having been a stylist for over 6 years, my clients can trust that they are in the best hands, not only when it comes to their wardrobe, but in knowing that I'm always going to do what's in the best interest for you.
PREFERENCES
Fit is first and foremost: it is what will make or break any outfit. After fit is practicality and personality! It's so important to dress for your environment, but still stay true to who you are. Whether you're catching brunch on 14th Street or have a meeting on Capitol Hill, I want to help you express yourself in the most flattering and appropriate way for wherever your life takes you!
RECREATION
I think for men and women alike, the right "third piece" is everything. Whether it be a deconstructed sportcoat or a well-worn military jacket, the right piece can instantly elevate your look and make you look in control of your style, wherever you are.
