Some are basic and simple, leaning heavily on solid colors, classic pieces, and expert tailoring. Others preach to their customer base that expressing yourself through your clothing is easiest with bright colors, bold patterns, and silhouettes that stand out among the sea of classic run-of-the-mill garments. J.McLaughlin is one of the best at finding that middle ground and providing pieces for both the former and the latter. In their new collection, they teamed up with iconic interior designer Mark Sikes for a fresh take on menswear seen nowhere else in the industry.
