'My style comes from a modern classic place. Where detail, patterns and threads come together to make timeless pieces of my everyday. My style is a vision of who I want to be and how I want to be perceived.
The day I recognized that fashion was a valuable part of my life was at a young age. I always had a unique outlook on fabrics, style, and patterns. While growing up I used to go with the trends of whatever was in. From baggy pants to huge white t-shirts. However, on my quest to express my originality in fashion I came to realize that following the current fads was not me at all. I wanted a more polished and distinguished look. I began to wear button down shirts and tailored pants.
I felt my evolution when I received my first pair of loafers. They were a maroon pair of Cole Haan loafers. The shoes were a mahogany cherry oak and when I put them on it felt like I was moon walking on air. I further immersed myself in to fashion by studying various styles and never missing an opportunity to dress up. That was the beginning of me following my own trend.
At first it was mocked and not accepted by my peers, but gradually it was embraced and followed by others. From then on I have been true to myself and the trends that I set and choose to follow. I consider my style as that of a classic gentleman; timeless, elegant, and confident. The style of a man that a lady sees in her dreams and what young men aspire to be. A figure of leading by example and being your own person. Fashion is your signature. It’s your mark on the world.'

It Is Grown From A Love Of The Southern Field

'My style is born of an appreciation of classic American apparel. It is grown from a love of the Southern field, the New England Prep School, and the Carolina Blue Ridge mountains. I do my best to carry the tradition of a Southern Gentleman wherever I go. To me, classic American style is merely one facet of pursuing a full and well rounded life. A gentleman is not defined by his style, it is merely an expression of his inner appreciation for beauty, aesthetic,
and quality.
Whether its white bucks at the races or Seersucker at church, the South is full of delightful traditions. Tradition is the idea of putting everything in its proper place. As such, I cringe seeing white pants in autumn or linen worn in winter not because it looks bad, but because it shows disregard, and in some cases, disrespect for the age old traditions that define the South.

No Matter What I Wear I Wear It The Way I Want

'If you don't take yourself seriously , then no one will.
For me, fashion is the art of creatively expressing myself through whatever stylistic means. Be that suit and tie, demon and leather or sequins and velvet. No matter what I wear, I wear it the way I want and won't let anyone define my creative limits.
I will walk out of my house in a black sequin jacket and a pink bowler hat if I was so creatively inclined to do so. Being a dancer and choreographer just allows me more freedom with my fashion choices and gives me other inspiration for my own daily style. On a side note, I am a massive sock guy. I have a million different quirky, colourful, patterned socks and love rocking them out at every opportunity I get.'
