How would you describe your style?
Elegant. I tend to be fashion-forward without being outlandish.
Who are your favorite designers?
Dolce & Gabbana and Ermenegildo Zegna.
What are some favorite places to shop in Washington?
Annie Creamcheese in Georgetown and Barneys. Express has a lot of cool belt buckles.
What is the best bargain you’ve ever found?
A vintage light-brown car coat at Annie Creamcheese for $50 last year.
Favorite thing in your closet?
My suits, which I have tailored in Thailand. I’m six-foot-five, so it helps to have them custom-made. I also love my collection of monogrammed, French-cuff dress shirts.
