Nelson
Who are you ?
Hello! I’m Nelson. In two words: endlessly positive and truly passionate.
I started out as a sommelier, but I eventually found my way into the world of tailoring.
Your ideal suit ?
Cinema has always been my thing. Since childhood, I’ve been captivated by the way a suit can embody elegance on screen. The Great Gatsby—both Robert Redford’s Ralph Lauren era and the DiCaprio remake—American Psycho, Scarface, The Wolf of Wall Street, the James Bond series… I could go on.
A charcoal double-breasted pinstripe suit will always speak to me—it makes me feel like I’ve stepped right into one of those films.
Your weekend outfit ?
Weekend is all about unwinding: soft wool trousers, a crisp shirt, and a cashmere sweater—perfection.
Your favourite color ?
I’m drawn to soft pastels: either a barely-there pink, almost white, or a very light blue.
An IG account that inspires you ?
@jeanmanuelmoreau. Maybe not the most playful feed, but his suits are a knockout—and the sheer elegance is next level.
