Talking Totems: Chad and his Suits

IMG_1621The first B&Tailor trunk show I visited was attended by Changjin, the Park son known for dressing in all manners of his Italian tutelage, nary a necktie.  On Wednesday, I met his older brother Chad, a veritable anomaly of the suit-wearing world, pulling off vintage style, nary a caricature.  His tape measure a stole around his neck, Chad Park shares his favorite item.

Chad, what’s the most special thing you are wearing right now?

My suits.

Which one?

All of them.

Why is that?

My father has made every one.

Do you remember the first one?

Yes, when I was a teenager.  It was my high school graduation, and he made it just for that day.  It was . . . gray, herringbone, three-button.  A classic suit.

Was this kind of suit your idea?

Chad shakes his head, points to the elder Park, and smiles.
