Julien Decanali
Julien Decanali is a buyer at Barney’s, and one anomaly of fashion. You might see him at the gym, scruffy, looking like he might have just gotten in a fight, and if you miss his Margiela basketball shoes, you might never think he was a card-carrying member of the menswear set. He represents a movement in the menswear industry—men, not particularly “creative”, or crazy, just men who are more and more honestly appreciative of fashion—a movement that spells great, global changes in menswear. Julien melds the ruggedly athletic with the suave and polished, a bundle of both rough and smooth, all in a style that is charmingly his.

In love with the last photo. An all black ensemble never ceases to be significant.

Do you only know exceptionally handsome fashionisti, Izzy?
I find what you’ve written strange, however. My experience in London so far has been that those guys working in menswear are decidedly not “creative”. They all dress pretty conservatively… Obviously not true for all, and definitely not necessarily true for the guys who work on the womenswear side of things, but I have been constantly surprised by the way fashion industry males dress. Not that it’s a bad thing, I just always assumed it would have attracted people a little more experimental with their image.
