September 16, 2026 No Comments

“New York Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2027 reminded me why this city remains unlike anywhere else in the world. What I witnessed was an extraordinary collision of fashion, commerce, celebrity, culture and a new generation determined to redefine luxury on its own terms. From the established American houses to emerging designers, there was a palpable sense of energy, optimism and reinvention. The clothes felt more personal, the audiences more global, and the conversation surrounding fashion more immediate than ever. New York was crowded, hot, exhilarating and occasionally controversial—but above all, it was alive. And for me, that is the real story of SS27: fashion has rediscovered the power of excitement.”

Caleb Williams Is Changing the Face of the NFL—and Menswear Should Be Paying Attention

September 13, 2026 No Comments

“Caleb Williams represents a new generation of American athlete—fearlessly competitive on the field yet equally confident expressing his individuality away from it. What strikes me about his painted nails this week is that they are more than a fashion statement; by incorporating 988 and a tribute to Chicago, he is using personal style to communicate purpose. As a menswear editor, I find that incredibly powerful. Caleb has the talent, athleticism, character and cultural relevance to transcend football, and I believe the right luxury menswear or grooming brand could build something extraordinary with him. He isn’t following an old definition of what an NFL quarterback should look like—he is helping create a new one.”

The Billion-Dollar Wrist: Why the World’s Most Powerful Men Are Making Luxury Watches the Ultimate Status Symbol of 2026

September 6, 2026 No Comments

“A great watch has become one of the most powerful signatures of a successful man. When I see someone like 50 Cent wearing a Hublot Big Bang Unico King Gold, I see more than gold, mechanics and craftsmanship—I see confidence, achievement and individuality. Today’s most influential men understand that a watch is not simply there to tell time; it tells a story about who you are, what you have accomplished and how you choose to present yourself to the world. In many ways, the wrist has become the modern man’s badge of honor.”

“Labor Day has always represented a uniquely American moment of transition—a celebration of the people whose work, craftsmanship and ingenuity continue to move this country forward, while simultaneously marking that wonderful shift from the freedom of summer into the energy of fall. For me, the best products for this weekend are not simply seasonal purchases; they are pieces that combine quality, purpose, style and longevity.

As an editor, I believe true luxury isn’t always defined by price—it is defined by design, craftsmanship, usefulness and the confidence something gives you when it becomes part of your life.”

Robert Pattinson Just Made the Ultimate Grown-Up Move—and Luxury Watchmaking Will Never Look the Same

September 2, 2026 No Comments

Robert Pattinson’s appointment as Jaeger-LeCoultre’s Global Ambassador represents far more than a celebrity partnership—it is the meeting of two creative forces defined by reinvention, restraint and quiet mastery. In my opinion, Pattinson is all grown up, having evolved from a global heartthrob into one of modern cinema’s most daring actors and producers. His intelligence, individuality and understated elegance make him the ideal representative for a manufacture that has never needed to shout to command respect. Together, they remind us that true luxury is not simply about recognition; it is about character, craftsmanship and creating something that will endure through time.”
