#1 The Suit.  A classic suit is the most powerful wardrobe piece you can arm yourself with.  Never out of place and always classic in single or double-breasted.  Fit is everything when it comes to suits.
 
#2 The Dress Shirt.  It's the second most important and powerful arrow in your wardrobe quiver.  Choose the more-formal white for total power, followed by pale blue, and then an array of colors and patterns.  Cotton is king and dress shirts should always be worn with complementary ties.
 
#3 The Sport Coat or Blazer.  Custom tailored, of course in luxurious wools and silks depending on the season.  Almost as powerful as the suit, the jacket is your passport to personal expression style.  Every jacket can be paired with at least three trousers-a light, a medium and a dark color.
 
#4 Trousers. From the dressiest of wools to the most casual of cotton or linens, the trouser takes center stage with an unlimited array of colors, patterns, solids and a host of personal styling options from pleats to flat front to pocket and cuff details.  There is no concession of comfort when you choose custom tailored trousers.
 
#5 Tailored Casual Shirts.  These awesome shirts are tailored just for you in a plain or patterned styles.  Bolder colors and patterns, to be worn with or especially without a tie add a European sophistication to your wardrobe.  Consider wearing these great shirts over a knit shirt or "t" shirt in a complimentary color.
 
#6 The Knit Shirt.   With styles running the gamut from polos to turtlenecks, its versatility just keeps growing and showing when worn under a jacket or layered under a tailored casual shirt.  
 
#7 Shoes and Belts.  From the dressiest of suits, to the most casual of trousers the shoe certainly supports the whole package.  Matching shoes and belts is the rule.  The dressier the outfit, the dressier the shoes should be.
 
#8 Coats & Outerwear.  From Chesterfields and classic topcoats to car coats with just enough length to cover the suit or sport jacket an all-purpose and all-weather coat is essential wardrobe wear.
