About
Esquire has commissioned the biggest names in fashion, design and art to create a unique and daring exhibition celebrating the iconic staple of the male wardrobe ? the suit.Esquire asked 18 leading fashion designers and tailors to collaborate with a major artist of their choice to create a bespoke, one-off suit that represents their skills and artistic vision. Their efforts have culminated in an extraordinary array of pieces, from the wearable to the outlandish.
The Singular Suit Project includes unique design collaborations by Graeme Fidler of Aquascutum with Antony Gormley, Frida Giannini of Gucci with Mark Ronson, Paul Smith with Richard Woods, Richard James with Spencer Tunick, Donatella Versace with James Clar, Dolce & Gabbana with Ron Arad. Each suit will be photographed for the September issue of Esquire, which is on sale from 6 August.
