Gentry Gives Suiting Advice on MadeMan.com 09/27/2010 by Mr. Sato

Gentry was recently asked by our friends at mademan.com to weigh in on men’s suiting, specifically when it is time to tailor a new suit once you’ve shed those pounds at the gym.

One of our recommendations were:

“If you haven’t thrown away all your college suits, please do so now.”

But you knew that.

Gentry Man Anthony Mandler for HP & GQ 09/24/2010 by Mr. Sato

Gentry Man and all around Renaissance Man, Anthony Mandler, was recently featured in this month’s issue of GQ as a modern day auteur. He was handpicked by HP as their new ambassador for his talents behind the camera.

But what many may not know, is his talents in front of the camera as well. The photo used in the promotion was from Gentry’s Fall 2010 Campaign shoot where Mr. Mandler nearly stole the show.

Gentry Goes Ivy League | Books & Liquor 09/24/2010 by Mr. Sato

After New York Fashion Week, Gentry took a trip to Boston. Aside from selling into our first Boston store, The Tannery on Boylston, we got the chance to feel smarter- or dumber depending on your perspective- than we actually are and walk the campus of Harvard.

We met a dandy of a lady named Emily Xie who runs Harvard’s premier fashion blog, which chronicles the elite academics of Harvard and their Ivy League fashion sensibilities.

It is definitely worth a gander. Not only are these the smartest kids in the country, but unbeknownst to many, also some of the most well-put together.

Check out their chronicles at www.booksandliquor.com

Thank you to Emily for her generous post here on Gentry.

New York Fashion Week – Y-3 by Yohji Yamamoto 09/15/2010 by Mr. Sato

Backstage at Y-3 by Yohji Yamamoto is always a show unto itself. From the throngs of Japanese buyers and celebrities to the open champagne bar, the mood is full of anticipation and excitement.

Front of house is much the same with Yohji’s showmanship being outdone by few. The live band added a nice compliment to one of the longest runways of the week.
