MY NEW PERFECT SUIT

Esquire US

|

October - November 2022

Our editor at large went hunting for a suit that's a step up (or two) from what's already in his closet. He got more than he expected.

MY NEW PERFECT SUIT

I KNEW IT WAS TIME FOR ME TO RAISE MY STYLE game late last year, when my friend John asked me to officiate at his wedding. Attending a wedding is a good excuse to pick up a new suit, but for the officiant, there's almost no excuse not to. I knew it would be a roomful of stylish people, so I wanted something that would give me confidence. I knew the pressure would be high, so I wanted something I'd be comfortable in. And I will level with you: I wanted to upstage the groom just enough.

So I went searching. With each subsequent suit I tried on, I realized that love at first sight is absolutely real. Because it was the first suit I saw-the Soho, by Paul Smith, in a burgundy color that could pass for purple or a rich brown depending on the light-that had me hooked. It called out to me. No, it suited me.

The price tag was $1,595. Sure, I wanted the right suit. My Suit. My investment in looking damn good. But I'll admit that I-accustomed to the deflated price of a Decent Suitwinced ever so slightly.

The BEST New

IT’S SELDOM SILENT IN MIAMI. THE AIR IS FULL OF CRICKETS AND the mm-tss, mm-tss of house music and the staccato backfires of souped-up whips gunnin’ down the causeway. But in the neighborhood of Little River, another welcome sound can be heard: the oceanic murmur of folks enjoying themselves. You hear it when you approach Sunny’s, a vast steakhouse where inside and outside blend together, Miami style. Sunny’s is a party. Like, the best party in town. The vibes are impeccable, and the food is so good that you make that face between disbelief and disgust that somehow conveys ecstasy. This year at Esquire, we’ve seen dozens of new restau

BIRTH OF THE COOL

NOWADAYS, IT'S A NO-BRAINER THAT BOX-OFFICE STARS MAKE unbeatable ambassadors for fashion brands. It wasn't always that way. In the mid-1990s, when cell phones were good for phone calls and not much else, actors would show up for premieres but rarely for fashion shows—and never in an ad campaign.
