Louis/Dressner Praised in GQ Magazine! Frankly, I find this alarming. I buy all my clothing from Eddie Bauer or LL Bean, have size 15 feet and wear orthopedic shoes, am overweight, constantly have food stains all over my shirts and don't own a tie. Denyse buys from Bean and Lands End. Kevin has some stylish faults, but he's all alone. Shawn has good taste, but is probably not cutting edge. Eddie wears the same t-shirt and jeans every day. Why would GQ Magazine be promoting us! One of my friends, who is stylish, just called me to let me know about the GQ mention. I forced Sheila, who is potentially stylish but who is on a stylishness hiatus, to buy the current GQ issue. The lead article in this issue is Dress Like a Winner, followed by an article on Barack Obama (who is pictured on the cover and is awfully handsome and stylish). The magazine is horribly glossy, with some 412 pages. I have arthritic hands and it hurts me to lift up the magazine. The magazine is filled with advertising featuring stylish men wearing beautiful clothes alternating with stylish women wearing very little clothes. On page 186 of the current issue, in between a full page ad for American Eagle and a full page ad for 501 Jeans, is an article on the importance of importers. The very stylish Eric Solomon is mentioned (he has great suits) along with Jorge Ordonez (cited as the King of Spain). Neal Rosental is there, as is Kermit Lynch (who was a stylistic pacesetter in Berkeley casual). Terry Theise is mentioned as is Louis/Dressner Selections. Frankly, I don't understand why Peter Weygandt didn't make the fashion list -- he has great wines and is an excellent dresser. David Lynch (who I assume is the guy who did Twin Peaks), who wrote the article, writes: From the same righteous school as Theise, Joe Dressner & Co. promotes all-natural, minimal-intervention wine styles. If you dig minerally, earthy whites, check out their unparalleled Loire Valley portfolio. Is Vogue next?
they should have a picture of you in your cape. ahab
My wife has a nephew in NY who works at GQ. Maybe your secret's out!!!
David Lynch was the sommelier at Felidia for a few years. Now he writes.
Amazing, he has done so much in addition to his film career!
Sorry, sorry, Babbo, not Felidia. Mometary Twin Peaks-like moment, I apologize.
you indeed are always food stained, but I disagree. The lovely Shawn Mead is ALWAYS lookin' bangin and on the cutting edge of style.
Ahh, Weygandt is a sharp dresser |
