Our Highly Selective
Storefront

“Cate Holstein and I met in the early days of our careers, so it’s extra exciting to witness what she’s accomplished with her brand, Khaite. Her collaboration with Oliver Peoples is everything that I want in a sunglass frame: chic, interesting, and classic.”

“Dr. Rose Ingleton has been my dermatologist for over a decade. Her namesake product line has become a favorite. I use the Signature Moisturizer year-round.”

“I’ve been shooting with film cameras lately, but, when shooting digital, I love a Ricoh. My assistant costume designer on Euphoria, Angelina Vitto, gifted me a GR1v, inspiring me to take more behind-the-scenes photos on set.”

“I’m proud to share the Euphoria Fashion book, published by A24. It’s a comprehensive look at the costumes of Euphoria, and my process and conversations with cast, crew, and those who inspire me.”

“Jonathan Anderson for Loewe all day every day. I would be excited to see a whole range of furniture and home goods from him and can’t wait for his collaboration with Luca Guadagnino on the upcoming film Challengers.”

“Alix Ross & Elijah Funk’s designs always put a smile on my face. Their use of humor, irony, and sincerity in their graphics is one of the many reasons they’ve built a cult fashion following.”

“I’ve never had earbuds that fit properly until I discovered the Bose noise-cancelling variety. They are one of the best party gift bag items I’ve ever received. ”

“Delvaux has been making exquisite leather goods in Belgium since 1829. I was reminded of them recently when I requested bag options for an actress in a feature film. The new range of colors for spring feel young, fresh, and modern.”

“It’s been amazing to see Rogan’s transition from fashion to furniture design. I’m always impressed by his boundless creativity. The Gorilla chair is inviting because of its tactile fabric, and I imagine settling into it would feel something like a hug.”

“I know how hard it is to design an object where all the details are perfect.”

“I function best with a uniform, and this has been my jumper of choice for many years. My natural preference is for the freedom that comes with not having to decide what to wear each morning.”

“Once I find a version of something I like, I tend to stick with it.”

“I have one of these vases in my house in London. I love the way it casts constantly shifting patterns of light, color, and shadow, but its presence also has emotional resonance for me. I first met Shiro Kuramata in Tokyo when I was in my late twenties. The time I spent with him helped shape the course of the rest of my life.”

“My camera is an essential design tool—I use it as others use a sketchbook. Having a lens of this quality always to hand is something that’s easy to take for granted.”

“Harney & Sons is ten minutes from Stissing House. We’re using this tea in our Arnold Palmer at brunch.”

“Salomons since 2014-ish and every day since… I wear the styles that have the toggle tie as opposed to laces.”

“Soft, cozy, and feels slightly smarter in a post-Covid world.”

“This serum slightly tingles upon application, which, in my mind, means it’s burning away dead skin cells and wrinkles. It’s part of my nighttime self-soothing ritual.”

“One of my absolute favorite design duos in the biz! An earlier Soft Baroque work and an instant classic. We are working with them on some new projects… Stay tuned!”

“This hoodie has become my ‘neighborhood’ garment, though the neighborhood has ever-expanding parameters. I prefer the separate pockets over the more casual kangaroo pocket typically on sweatshirts.”

“My favorite gin for a martini. I’ve got a glass that my grandmother gave me, a heavy duty sort of thing. Add some Noilly Prat or Dolin vermouth and some No. 3 Gin from our friends at Berry Bros. Keep that in the freezer. Then I like a twist, but I also like an olive, frankly. With a seat outside as the sun sets. Perfection.”

“The latest addition to our signature range of relaxed tailoring, this suit is made from a beautiful Italian fabric. Unstructured and easy to wear… and wear, and wear.”

“My most recent book purchase. Jeremy Lee is a brilliant chef and the proprietor behind Quo Vadis, a Soho institution, which he’s just done up with a new bar. My friend Fergus Henderson claims it’s ‘already a classic,’ and I’m inclined to agree.”

“My dad used to wear a Cartier Tank. It’s a classic. I also like that it’s quartz, that it just goes. There’s quite a lot to be said for that. I’d be very happy to wear it. Dress it up, dress it down. A nice little antidote to all of those big watches.”

“These boots are made in a historic factory in Northampton—the heart of British shoemaking—with a Goodyear welted sole. The calf leather suede is sourced from Charles F Stead, a storied Yorkshire tannery that is the best of the best.”

“This is an eco-friendly digital camera. My whole career is about pictures, photography, and the image of something beautiful and meaningful. ”

“I’m never not looking for the perfect tote. This one pretty much ticks all my boxes. I think it’s the canvas with tan that I find irresistible.”

“I don’t think I’ve ever gone out of the house without a pair of earrings on. These are beautiful day to night and would literally make a white T-shirt look great. ”

“I know myself and I have to be organized at all times. This is the most beautiful case to keep me and my papers together!”

“After his first book came out, my family and I became rather obsessive about David Sedaris. My heart leaps when he does something new. He is brilliant, funny, observant, and tells it how it is—from his perspective—which is wonderful, as he notices so much and makes the ordinary extraordinary. ”

“I’ve always been a huge fan of Rick Owens and also Converse. I wear trainers and flats all the time, so I want some excitement from them!”

“I have been lusting over this jacket since it hit the stores. It’s part workman’s jacket, part Austrian Tracht. I wish I could live in The Row. ”

“I saw the Just Above Midtown show at MoMA over the holidays, and I can’t get it out of my head. Gallerist Linda Goode Bryant was such a visionary. This catalog really captures how she ushered new blood into the art world.”
