In our last post we touched on Collar Pins (Collar Bars), so in sticking with the old school vibe, we touch on mens suspenders (braces). More common than the collar pin yet still not a regular feature in most men’s wardrobes. The male suspender first came around in 1820 when men typically wore high waisted […]
If you’re on Instagram (which as of April 2017, boasts 700 Million actively monthly users) and you’re interested in men’s tailoring, then I would happily bet a large sum that you’ve come across an image of Daniele Zaccone.

You may recognize a few of these shots from a past shoot we did but not all were released. Its finally time to let lose the master work of Paul Baichoo of Floyd & Phoenix. A few months back we were at the Eight Members club and decided to invite a few friends over…
We touch on his style, how it developed and style in general within the legal profession. We hope you enjoy
