Hand in Hand: Club Collar and Slim Tie

Summer is here and with it comes scorching temperatures, humid air and, well a pleasant change of wardrobe and styling. To save yourself from the tyranny of the weather, one can consider rolling up those long sleeve shirts or ditching them in favor of a more suave short sleeve alternative. The latter option seems more viable seeing as this is [...]

A.P.C. X The Teenagers Honor Rock & Roll

I heart A.P.C. and I heart The Teenagers. Naturally, great minds tend to think alike so it was an expected symbiosis of talent for Jean Touitou to team up with The Teenagers, a French synthpop meets indie rock band, to produce a limited edition of t-shirts on the topic of rock and roll.

Michael Jackson, Givenchy, and Stardust: The King of Pop Turns Androgynous

My present thinking wouldn’t regard Michael Jackson as much of a fashion-forward chap.

Dressed for Success: Sir Paul Smith Unites with Manchester United

If you fancy yourself a football loyalist, you would know today is a monumental day in football as England’s Manchester United and Spain’s F.C. Barcelona square off to decide who is the European champion. A time-tested Manchester United fan, I’m confident that United is bagging the silverware.
