I am often asked about wedding attire, which, for guys, can be a worrying task, taking them out of their comfort zone and comfortable clothes. When attending a wedding as a guest, your role depends on your relationship to the happy couple, and usually your invite will be clear about which part of the day […]

Behind the Seams
At this time of year, you can’t help but look back and think about all the things we are grateful for. For someone like me who is always working seasons ahead, I don’t often have the luxury of living in the current moment, let alone looking back and reflecting upon the last year. The […]
Styling Expertise
I always see menswear as an evolving part of fashion, and unlike womenswear, changes can be more subtle and much less apparent to the trained eye each season. On the other hand, menswear can get very traditional and seemingly the same after each season. This can suit a lot of you – men who tend […]

Each year around this time, I realize that a lot of people I know have a love-hate relationship with the Holidays.

Our Trademark, A Suit That Fits ®
I think a man wearing a good suit is truly wonderful. Tom Ford describes his personal attire as a form of respect for people around him and shows up as the very best version of himself. It is truly admirable, and a man who takes care of his appearance, no matter at what level, deserves […]

On a recent trip to London, I was reminded of this when walking through Mayfair and my old haunts with London’s Regency […]
Part of A Happy Life
On the eve of our lapsed Client event, which will take place over the next few weeks, I feel a sense of optimism and opportunity. Reminding clients who already know us about what we offer from a product and service should be pretty effortless and somewhat fun, considering how our product updates each season with […]
Outerwear Choices
On a recent trip to London and the UK, I was able to fully appreciate the need for having the right outerwear on hand as temps changed from one day to the next with one beautiful brisk morning walking across Hyde Park with temps at around 5° C. I had a Field Jacket in Reda […]
Refined Casual
The new fall collection seems to capture the season so perfectly through coloration, textures, patterns and, indeed, the fabric qualities themselves selected from our mill partners from around the world. Our tailoring and suits, in particular, have stood the test of time and most clients, established or new, find that a custom-made suit is […]
Fall Sweeps In
September has begun, and this month, fall sweeps down upon us unavoidably, with reminders at our local shopping markets and coffee shops, with pots of Mums, pumpkin spice, and Halloween décor eagerly displayed in the premium pick-up spots. Over the last holiday weekend, I traveled to my home here in Connecticut, the place that […]
