Effortlessly adaptable, the two-button jacket has long been a cornerstone of modern tailoring. Its low button stance elongates the frame and flatters most body types, making it a staple for both formal and casual dressing. While originally developed for functionality, today's versions come with soft shoulders, lighter canvases, and an easy-going confidence. Whether cut from herringbone wool or breezy linen, this jacket transitions seamlessly from boardroom to weekend brunch. Style tip: always button the top, never the bottom—an unspoken rule that still holds.

Bold and timeless, the double-breasted jacket is a power piece that commands attention without shouting. With its overlapping front, peak lapels, and architectural shape, it brings structure and authority to any look. Today’s versions are more forgiving—softened shoulders, subtle tapering, and breathable fabrications bring this classic into the now. Pair it with tailored trousers for the office or dress it down with denim and loafers for an unexpected edge. A true wardrobe anchor, redefined for the modern gent.

The tuxedo is the pinnacle of formalwear sophistication—a garment designed to command presence with understated elegance. Distinguished by its satin or grosgrain lapels, tailored silhouette, and typically paired with a crisp white dress shirt and bow tie, the tuxedo embodies timeless evening refinement. Whether featuring classic single-breasted styling or a double-breasted design, its sleek lines and precise tailoring create a look that’s both powerful and polished.

The safari jacket is where utility meets refinement—a piece born from necessity but perfected for today’s versatile wardrobe.

The morning coat is the quintessential garment for formal daytime events, characterized by its long tail and sweeping cutaway front. Its origins in equestrian wear have given way to ceremonial grace, often accompanied by striped trousers and a contrasting waistcoat. This piece is reserved for occasions where tradition meets style, carrying a sense of occasion that few garments can match. Worn with precision, it tells a story of heritage and refined elegance

Waistcoats serve as the sartorial bridge between formality and layering versatility. From sleek single-breasted styles to double-breasted designs, waistcoats define the midsection and add depth to any outfit. More than just a component of a three-piece suit, they have evolved into standalone pieces that pair effortlessly with jeans, chinos, or tailored trousers. Textures, colors, and cuts vary, allowing personal expression while maintaining a refined silhouette.

The flat-front trouser embodies modern simplicity—a clean silhouette free of pleats that emphasizes a slim, tailored look. Often worn slightly lower on the waist, these trousers create an uninterrupted line from hip to hem, offering a sleek and contemporary profile. Their understated design makes them a versatile foundation for everything from formal suits to casual pairings, provided the fit is precise. Comfort and style converge here, proving less truly can be more.

Pleated trousers bring a touch of classic refinement to any wardrobe, introducing gentle folds that offer both ease of movement and a subtle flair. Rooted in traditional tailoring, the pleats add volume and shape, balancing comfort with elegance. Whether sharply pressed for a business setting or relaxed for casual wear, pleated trousers invite variety—offering a nuanced alternative to their flat-front cousins while maintaining timeless appeal.

Shorts, when tailored with intention, are anything but casual. Designed with clean lines, a structured waistband, and proper length, they bring polish to warmer-weather dressing. Crafted in breathable cotton twill, linen, or lightweight wool, they can be paired with shirts, polos, or unstructured jackets. Think of them as the relaxed counterpart to your trousers—still refined, still composed, but built for ease and elegance in equal measure

The foundation of any sharp wardrobe, the dress shirt is defined by its clean structure, precise collar, and tailored fit. Whether paired with a suit or worn beneath a knit, it signals a sense of discipline and detail. In crisp cotton poplin or smooth broadcloth, it offers breathability and structure, ready to transition from boardroom to black-tie. The right dress shirt is cut close to the body, with just enough room for movement— refined, reliable, and always appropriate.

Designed specifically for formalwear, the tuxedo shirt elevates evening dressing with thoughtful details. Pleated or bib-front, French cuffs, and a spread or wing collar distinguish it from everyday shirting. Often crafted in textured cotton piqué or fine twill, it offers structure that sits perfectly beneath a tuxedo jacket. Worn with a bow tie and cufflinks, the tuxedo shirt is not just a garment—it’s part of a ritual, one that celebrates elegance, ceremony, and sartorial precision.

Lightweight and effortlessly refined, the linen shirt is summer tailoring at its finest. Its natural texture and breathability offer comfort in warmer climates while retaining a sense of structure when styled correctly. Whether in neutral earth tones or soft pastels, the linen shirt pairs seamlessly with tailored trousers, resort wear, or under relaxed jackets. Its slightly rumpled charm speaks to quiet luxury—unrushed, unbothered, and endlessly versatile.

A cornerstone of the modern gentleman’s winter wardrobe, the overcoat is the final layer that ties it all together. Cut to fall below the knee with a structured silhouette, it’s designed to be worn over tailoring without compromising the integrity of your shape. Whether rendered in heavyweight wool, cashmere blends, or structured twill, the overcoat speaks to quiet authority—clean lines, thoughtful proportions, and subtle elegance.
Single- or double-breasted, with a peak or notch lapel, every detail is considered for both function and form.
