A Sartorial Journey

By Ignatious Joseph

The allure and opulence of the Ottoman Empire inspires our friend, Ignatious Joseph as he creates his namesake menswear line. Follow him on a recent trip to Istanbul as he revels in the history of the Pera Palace Hotel then sets out to explore the exotic Spice Market and the Grand Bazaar. Istanbul is a true mix of cultures and influence, the intersection of east and west, and no one captures its spirit better than the sophisticated Mr. Joseph.

“Choosing the right cloth always requires me to feel and “smell” the product. My shirts are known for the “spice” added. Making a curry or choosing a collar means delicate distinction between the stimulation of the palate and burning the tongue.” – Ignatious Joseph
