The Look Book...
Shawn wears a thrifted H & M sweater re-worked for "Bad Things Collective." Stay tune for that collaboration.
Phillip wears authentic Italian Wool sweater. The boots are from UrbanOutfitters, while his army style shirt is J.Crew, and army style pants are from the Gap.
For my first LookBook, I decided to play with different versions of Fall style. For me, Fall menswear is about good fabrics, layers, and uniforms. These 3 components create the P-D Mag looks for the season. While looking through this LookBook you’ll see each of these fully represented.
This take on the "Canadian Tuxedo" is P-DMag approved. Wearing a denim overall suit with J.Crew denim shirt is the cool way to pull off an already classic style hand book look.
Phillip shows you how to rock the NY uniform in weather appropriate fashion. He wears black velvet blazer, and Italian leather shoes donated by my father. He takes it up a notch by mixing different textures in the look. Elevating the overall NY uniform...
When layering go for the over-sized. The pinstripe blazer I'm wearing is my dad's who was 6'3 and is perfect for layering a sweater or something else underneath. The pants though are herringbone, but lightweight from J.Crew and they will be in heavy rotation this season.
Phillip wears this over sized knee length coat showcasing a proverb I like to live by, "Just because it's cold outside your outfit doesn't have to reflect that." What that means to me is bulky layers don't have to be your staples, your layers can be heavyweight but lengthy, spread out, and still do the trick. Throw on some J.Crew 5 pocket cords to finish the look and you'll be warm and on trend.

The First LookBook was a collaborative effort from myself and Phillip. While I shot and styled this piece, Phillip always willing to be my mannequin makes this work. Shot at Orchard Beach in the Bronx. With love and thanks this is P-DMag's first LookBook. Stay tuned for more great things coming! Including my content rush in 2 weeks!
