The Capsule Wardrobe

Chris — Tue, 11 Jun 2013 10:00:35 +0000

All too often, people look into their closets full of clothes and think one of two things: 1. For women: “I have nothing to wear.” 2. For men: “I don’t for the life of me have a clue as to how to put any of this together.” This occurs as often as it does because [...]

The Fabric Series, Pt. IV: Linen

Chris — Tue, 04 Jun 2013 10:00:02 +0000

May of 2013 really went out with a bang this year. We were having some really pleasant, mild spring weather before 90-plus-degree heat and suffocating humidity swooped in. The entire summer surely won’t be so hot all the time, but there will be plenty of days when we show up to work a bit sweatier [...]

The Fabric Series, Pt. II: Cotton

Chris — Tue, 14 May 2013 10:00:17 +0000

While mohair is a great warm weather fabric, it’s not the only option under the sun. We like the idea of keeping a varied and functional wardrobe, so we generally advise our clients to keep some different fabrics in their rotation so they’re prepared for different occasions.

Color-Coding an Outfit

Chris — Thu, 09 May 2013 10:00:08 +0000

Men often have a hard time with color. As we’ve mentioned before, guys aren’t trained to look at colors the way women are from their early teens into adulthood. This often puts us at a loss when getting dressed, which translates into armies of men wearing nothing more than their basic blues, greys, and whites. [...]

Chris — Tue, 16 Apr 2013 10:00:37 +0000

Northeasterners complain about the weather incessantly, and the boys at Henry A. Davidsen are just as guilty of this as the next guy.
