“Fashion fades, only style remains the same.” - Coco Chanel

Emmanuel's my eldest brother, and a major influence of mine in the style department. His ever expanding wardrobe is adorned with pieces ranging from high-quality tailored jackets to an array of Onitsuka Tiger sneakers; not to mention, his precious collection of time pieces - an obsession he had assumed from a young age. His style has matured (and improved) tremendously over the past few of years, crediting the uprising of The Sartorialist and fashion inspired-overseas trips to Japan and Europe.

I admire the fact that he's never a slave to fleeting trends and sticks to classics, only adapting pieces, like his jacket buttons, to revive them. Thanks to him, I've finally learnt the importance of a good tailor and along with Michael, always get his opinion before purchasing a new item in my wardrobe... Everyone needs an Emmanuel in their life!
