The Star Of The Show

To you he may look like a regular dude- Of course to me he’s a diamond. His green wool shirt and green t shirt initially caught my eye. Then it was his old Alan Mikli frames with contrasting temples and his beret. But his flannel wool sweatpants with Hush Puppie loafers were pretty radical. After talking for a minute I learned that his 1st job in N.Y. was designing at Mr. Mort. After a few days of him impressing the pants off everyone with his sketches and designs, Stan Herman asked to speak with him and told him “There is only 1 star here at Mr. Mort and that is me”. So he packed up and left.

Had to hang out and peer through that yellow flowered tree waiting for the right shot of this kid. Love his mix of patterns on that vest and shirt. It looks like an old Eddie Bauer shirt. That brand is due for a comeback! It reminds me of the old Banana Republic shirts… I also love the paint on his shoe. Does he write, paint or just ‘deliver’?
