Issue 3
As we ease into fall, SARTO takes a fresh look at some classic menswear elements as well as some aspects of life in general that we are anxious to embrace. Eric Twardzik profiles bespoke hatter NICHOLAS T. ENGEL – how and why he does what he does – and the marvelous results. No rest for the weary, Eric also sits down with MATT SPAISER, co-author of “From Tailors With Love” a riveting dissection of all things sartorially Bond, just as 007 takes another turn in theaters. Learn the history and how the world’s “best-dressed spy” became an interest and influence not only for Matt but for all the rest of us.
The ever erudite Christian Barker hones in on the latest specimen in our SARTO SAPIENS series – THE LENSMAN. Illustrations by Tug Rice perfectly capture this charming denizen of the chiffon trenches. Celebrated menswear author G. Bruce Boyer sits down with JONATHAN SIGMON, the owner of Alan Flusser Custom, as he takes the reins of that iconic house to discover why the process makes all the difference in the garments they produce and the service they deliver. Our own favorite “Citizen of the World” Mr. Ignatious Joseph educates us on the custom of “Afternoon Tea” and where to find the best examples of that time-honored ritual anywhere from London to Zimbabwe. Later in this issue, Christian Barker returns with a profile of “Design Super Hero” ERIC CHANG of Hellman–Chang. A peek behind the scenes of that furniture brand reveals a design aesthetic fueled by a passion for fashion.
SARTO SCENTS explores the flavors of fall with three fragrances that evoke the season through elegant masculine influences and elements. SARTO SPIRITS takes us out on the town for a “post pandemic” toast featuring classic cocktails in classic settings. In SARTO STUFF, Steven D. Elliott observes and reports on all of the pieces that make STEPHON CARSON – one of the most stylish men we know – always exploring while staying true to his personal sartorial vision. Always observing, SARTO ESSENTIALS looks at seasonal slippers, neckwear and travel gear. THE LAST WORD for fall is TWEED. SARTO Creative Director CHUCK POLLARD mixes and matches this quintessentially autumnal offering.
