The Private Equity Capsule is an example of a custom capsule wardrobe we created for a client who works in Private Equity in New Jersey.

This gentleman has high net-worth clients so he needs to look professional and trustworthy, but he doesn't want to look like a "typical banker". It's not uncommon for him to meet with his clients over dinner, drinks and nights out. So he needs a wardrobe that can transition from business to leisure - while always looking smart and sophisticated.

He's also an avid cyclist, so he always has problems fitting pants (too tight in the seat and thighs) as well as jackets (too boxy in the midsection). So we knew our bespoke fitting process would make a huge impact for him.

Before working with us his wardrobe was basically split into two parts: 1) casual athleiure (think Nike hoodies and Lululemon pants) and 2) "generic business clothes" (think structured suits in navy and gray). His wardrobe was not fluid or versatile and his look was generic and uninspired. 

We helped him create a wardrobe that is smart and sophisticated and can easily transition from the office to an evening out. And, of course, we made sure the fit of every garment was perfect to accentuate his unique shape.
