Brandon Seah
Brandon Seah is a fashion buyer in-training in New York City by way of Singapore, a substantial patron of Rei Kawakubo and her disciples, and a favorite subject of The Sartorialist’s Scott Schuman. I’ve learned to appreciate the merits of wearing well-loved sneakers to balance a heavy, rich Fashion outfit since I met him two years ago. Unlike many of the men I’ve profiled on this site, his style reads more doofus than debonair—humor plays a huge part in the way he dresses. Brandon Seah wears clothes for the joy and artistry of each piece, and it is the peace and the grace with which he puts himself together that I admire most.

The forest print on this Miharayasuhiro piece looks like a picture projected on to a mundane gray striped coat.

If there’s one piece I could inherit from his wardrobe, it will have to be this fringed Comme des Garcons Homme Plus long jacket. It is dark and dandy incarnate.

Do you wish me a good morning, or mean that it’s a good morning, whether I want it or not; or that you feel good this morning, or that it is a morning to be good on?

I am quite curious to discover if Brandon would still be able to dress like this if money was a problem, indeed like it is for the vast majority of people who can likewise appreciate the clothes but are unable to afford them?. No malicious intentions, just curious.

OMG, he’s amazing. Love every single item, though the colour of the Birkin bag and the Miharayasuhiro forest print coat bring it all home for me. He has a great eye (as do you!)
