'A few years ago, I read a definitive style advice: "Sometimes looking at a nice black and white picture of your grandfather as a young man wearing his Sunday-suit can learn you more about classic style than reading 20 fashion magazines."

I always think about my grandfather when I choose my clothes. In practice, this means reducing the color palette and rely on the classics. My style icons are Michael Caine, Antônio Carlos Jobim, JFK and Wes Anderson.'
