Pocket Square Panache: Elevating Your Suit Style with Elegance
Pocket squares are often overlooked when it comes to accessorizing a suit, but they can add a touch of elegance and personality that completes a polished look.
Pocket squares are often overlooked when it comes to accessorizing a suit, but they can add a touch of elegance and personality that completes a polished look. These small squares of fabric, neatly folded and tucked into the breast pocket of a suit jacket, can elevate an outfit from ordinary to extraordinary. Whether you're attending a formal event or a casual gathering, a well-chosen pocket square can make a statement and showcase your attention to detail.
One of the great things about pocket squares is their versatility. They come in a variety of colors, patterns, and fabrics, allowing you to easily match them to your outfit or add a pop of contrast for visual interest. Whether you prefer a classic white linen square for a timeless look, or a bold, patterned silk square to add flair, there's a pocket square to suit every style and occasion.
In addition to their aesthetic appeal, pocket squares also serve a practical purpose. They can help to keep the shape of the jacket's breast pocket, preventing it from sagging or collapsing. Additionally, they can be used to discreetly carry small items such as a handkerchief or a business card, adding functionality to your ensemble.
Ultimately, a pocket square is a small accessory that can make a big impact. By paying attention to the details and incorporating a pocket square into your outfit, you can elevate your style and stand out from the crowd. So next time you're getting dressed for a formal event or a day at the office, don't forget to add a pocket square to complete your look and add that extra touch of sophistication.

The Black Suit: Considered Beyond Funerals
The black suit has a complicated reputation in contemporary menswear. For decades, it was the suit a man owned for funerals — a single piece in the closet that came out only for sad occasions and was otherwise treated as too somber for ordinary wear. The recommendation in most menswear writing is to skip the black suit entirely and choose a charcoal or navy as the foundational dark suit.
The Showroom in Beverly Hills: Rodeo Drive
Our Beverly Hills showroom sits on South Rodeo Drive, in a building whose neighbors include the most established luxury houses in American retail. The choice of address was deliberate. A custom tailoring house that operates in Los Angeles needs to be where the city's most discerning clients already shop, and Rodeo Drive remains the address that gathers those clients in one block.
The Trousers: Pleats, Cuffs, and the Quiet Detail
Trousers are the half of a suit that men think about least and that, in fact, do the most invisible work. A jacket can be slightly imperfect and still photograph well. Trousers cannot. The lines of the trousers — how they break, how they hang, where they fall on the shoe, whether they pull or pool — are visible from every angle and across every motion. The trousers are the foundation, and they deserve more attention than they typically receive.
