As a senior in college at Columbia University Dan was named “America’s Best Dressed Real Man” by Esquire magazine (2009), which inspired him to start a website dedicated to menswear and style.

After completing his Columbia degree he went back to school to formally study tailoring and menswear design at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York, where his final collection was selected for display in the college’s museum.

Throughout his studies at Columbia and FIT Dan spent five years apprenticing for a bespoke tailor in NYC, where he eventually became the head fitter.

This experience lead him to eventually combine the convenience and accessibility of e-commerce with the personal service and handmade quality that - before Articles of Style - could only be found in brick & mortar tailor shops in London and NYC.

Wes was born and raised on the lower east side of New York City. His first job was shining shoes as a boy, where he observed how city gentlemen dressed and learned the fundamentals of style. From there he always had a fascination with menswear.

He went on to study Business Management at Brooklyn College and in 2012 he crossed paths with Dan and they hit it off immediately. Wes spent the next three years styling clients in NYC and continued to refine his knowledge of fabrics, patterns, and tailoring.

Today Wes styles men (and women) all over the world and has become one of the premiere stylists in the menswear industry.

Morgane was born in France and raised in both Paris and East Sussex, England. Her fascination for Menswear started at a young age with an admiration for her fathers’ wardrobe of corduroy suits and classic newsboy caps. She went on to study Fashion Design at Central Saint Martins in London and got inspired in the streets of Saville Row and Carnaby street where she first interned, before moving to Paris where she trained as a pattern cutter and tailor.

Nikki grew up in central LA and got her first introduction to menswear by chance when her parents caught an Uber ride with a bespoke business owner in DTLA. She worked there for almost two years, learning the basics of entrepreneurship, customer relations, and design. In 2019, she went on to take a summer abroad in London to learn the fundamentals of pattern drafting on Savile Row. Now currently studying at Smith College in Massachusetts, she’s taken a position on our team, coordinating customer service operations as well as helping develop our women’s collection.
