Tailored Fever

“I am trying to gain weight, but its really hard,” says Matthew, who heads to the gym whenever he’s free in morning, in an attempt to bulk up some. “I’m still figuring out what I’m supposed to do in the gym though, hence the lack of results,” he explains, laughing sheepishly. Describing his style as “tailored, blue and linen,” this gentleman does indeed dress the way he mentioned—fitted pants cut at the ankle, a teal tie that ends just right, a contrast collar on his striped shirt. The pop of red from his watch strap and shined brogues further provide a refreshing jolt of colour. “I am influenced by Mr Kamoshita of United Arrows,” Matthew explains. Naming The Black Keys as his favourite band, he shares that their 60s rock ‘n’ roll sound with a bit of soul mixed in is right up his alley. “Their track, ‘Fever’, is on repeat on my Spotify!” Matthew’s dream dinner partner is Bruce Lee. “I’ve been his fan since young,” he says. “It’d be nice to pick the brain of one of the world’s most renowned martial artists, philosopher and film star.”
