One Thing That I Noticed Is That Everyone Looked The Same

'I wasn't always into men's fashion. I didn't recognize my talent for styling until maybe a few years ago. I began reading magazines and checking out different fashion shows online and I decided to give it a shot.
One thing I noticed was that everyone looked the same. Usually I saw the traditional white shirt, tie (of any color), nice pants and some dress shoes. So I used that as motivation to make my style different from many and most importantly not boring! My style is simply based on challenging the norm. I like to push the boundaries by using multiple patterns along with color blocking in my approach. My journey with fashion lives on as I seek more companies and clients who need styling or brand consultation and advertising.'

My Story Begins With My Dad And My Uncle

'I am still trying to say truth, trying to be brave about style but it's clear that it is the way I show colors in me. My style story begins with my dad and my uncle who was living with my family when I was a child.
I remember these two gentlemen were getting ready for work like a ceremony; tailored suits, pure silk ties, perfectly ironed shirts, new looking clean shoes. It was interesting to see how they looked different from each other although they had the same kind of clothes on. I was jealous, because as a student I had to wear the same school uniform everyday and the strict rules did not let me add accesories or change colors. I had to be the same as others. But I observed my dad and uncle were defining themselves with their total look. I have learned the importance of the good shoes and stength of the good textile from them when I was young.
Now I am at the age they were and I see my style is something between classical and
actual streetwear. Furniture design and architecture inspires me and maybe this is why I try to build my look as everything on me like one piece. I am still not brave about using accessories but like to play with colours and shades. I do believe less is more but patterns are my exception.'
