An idea that is confident always looks masculine.

I feel like jeans and a T-shirt have become Establishment. Everyone’s dressed down. So actually putting on a jacket is the anti-­Establishment stance.

Every man should own a navy cashmere jacket with gold buttons, a grey suit, black shoes shoes for the city, brown shoes for elsewhere. Everything else should be simple and really well made.

The most uninteresting thing for me is when somebody thinks too much about how they put themselves together.

As a designer, I'm supposed to be provoking people's reactions, and getting people to see things differently. I think more of us should be doing this. Because yeah, maybe guys are not gonna want to wear my stuff, but they'll think that they can maybe wear something a little bit more than what they've been wearing. That's the only way things move forward.

If you saw me every day, you would actually think I am wearing the exact same gray suit.

If you’re constantly open to inspiration, it will come to you. The worst thing a man can do is pressure himself into an idea.
