Style Tips
SPREZZATURA

Why are you looking at a picture of a bare hanger? It goes back to a book I love from the Italian renaissance called The Book of The Courtier. The key idea of the book - it is long and who has the time to read these days - is sprezzatura. A man must face the world with sprezzatura. It literally means detachment, but a better way to think of it is quiet confidence or low-key style. The most forceful statement is understatement. It is the philosophy behind everything I do. So why are you looking at a picture of a hanger? Sprezzatura.
