"We work with a number of great artists from musicians like VHCLE, Blind Bear art a stellar glass blower. The After Our$ streetwear designers are working on a collection with us. We just started styling The Dapper Man on Youtube featuring Pop Culture reviews, commentary. We work with artists like Alberto Cebollero of Ramona + the RIOT. We have incredible opportunities within our own community to uplift each other and I make sure people know it. We work with many local digital creatives like Melissa Marcarelli Photography and DNSTY iNC for media production.We want to capture that magic along the way. That is why, we are aiming to open "Bespoke House". This is our Phoenix rising moment. From the ashes...
This seems like the most obvious thing to do to stay cool in the summer. Of course, here in the swampland we have pretty well stripped our into wardrobe into loose threads of cheap fabrics that suffice for Publix decency. To each their own. We all have our style, but it isn't mine, and it isn't yours. If you've made it this far, you clearly have an interest in the sartorial, so let's dig a little deeper into what a "light" fabric is.
When I speak about bespoke clothing, what it means, where it comes from, a common theme emerges in the natural flow of the conversation. I propose, "Have you ever bought your size and it suddenly didn't fit the same?"
The secret is, there is no industry standard when it comes to the fashion industry. Every house, every designer, every tailor, has a different way of measuring the human body. Seems straight forward enough, a tape measure can't be too far off, right?
The suit becomes an identity. A 21st Century suit of armor. The most important thing to remember in this endeavor, is to find the perfect fit. Practically, yes, the way a jacket drapes over the shoulder, the way it highlights your best self, but also in your personal style, the way you wear the suit, the things you do. You can easily spend thousands on the finest clothing available to you but an ill-fitting suit will never look great.
Spring is the time of year where we see a shift in color palettes and fashion trends. The colors are lighter and more pastel, as well as being brighter.
This is the perfect time to incorporate new fabrics into your wardrobe. This year, we have seen a lot of designers using breathable airy fabrics such as cotton and silk blends to make clothes that are both comfortable and stylish.
