INTRODUCING BB'S CURATED COLLECTION - SPRING 2014

THE ARMCHAIR TRAVELER
 This Samuelsohn suit, you see, took the long way to Seattle. (Say that ten times fast.) Since 1923 Samuelsohn has sourced wools from Italy and Great Britain, and rare silks and cashmeres from Asia. They then fashion them into garments in Montreal for a very particular - and particularly international - clientele. With full-canvas construction, hand-sewn details, durability and style, this suit will take you anywhere (and anywhere it can’t take you, a Samuelsohn all-season water-resistant 12-pocket travel blazer can. But that’s a story for another time). Pair this suit ($1395) with a shirt ($345) and tie ($165) from Giorgio Armani, the perfectionist whose “things” now include home furnishings, hotels, resorts, restaurants, cafés, clubs, fine jewelry, perfumes, flowers and yachts, started with a shirt and a tie. Perfect ones. Very much like the ones you see here, gracing this perfect plaid suit atop the perfectly cobbled shoe (Fratelli Rosetti, $575).
