WHO?
Duncan Quinn is arguably one of the handful of people responsible for the resurgence of men’s tailoring in the USA in recent years. He has always had a passion for the persuasion of perception and a keen eye for cut, shape, color and form. He’s also been known to throw the occasional party, indulge in the odd cheeky lunch, drive too fast and enjoy life just a little too much in the company of his friends.
Although Duncan hails from London, his view of the world was heavily influenced by years spent learning about food, wine and life in the south of France. The lessons learned there, along with the wanderlust this instilled and the travels that followed, gave him an exceptional toolset with which to convey the world as he sees it.
Duncan is fascinated by the psychology of clothing and loves a good story, even if it is a tall tale. He is lucky enough to have eaten in some of the best restaurants in the world, and counts owners of some of the finest vineyards in the world as friends. When not celebrating life with his friends he enjoys riding motorcycles, driving cars, and generally doing anything that involves going faster than God intended.
Everything Duncan does is a reflection of his travels and experiences, his joy in learning new customs, places, methods and views and his sharp attention to detail, proportion, color and cut.
When he has a spare moment he likes nothing more than to sit and watch the world go by in the Cours Saleya, Nice, France.
