I can attest that clothes can improve ones outlook on life. After over 20 years serving in the military, I began to suffer from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. I began to spiral downwards into depression. I was even suicidal! One day after coming back from a therapist, I was feeling down because I didn't think anything was working. I somehow found Parisian Gentleman. I decided to enter my own sartorial journey. Now, three years on, I dress elegantly, Ive taught my self about suits, shoes and my entire mindset and behaviour changed. I am still here because of the Sartorial world!
What an incredible remark to read today. This is a response which makes what I do worth it. Thank you for taking time to write and for being part of our world. Cheers to you,
Hugo ( and Sonya)
People can sometimes underestimate how dressing well is a form of self care,, it can left the spirit and give light.
Good on you sir! The Sartorial lifestyle seems like such a fun journey! Would love to get into it some day as well!
As for more important problems in the world: tailored and bespoke clothing are far more sustainable than anything you would buy on the high street. You have explained in another podcast how bespoke teaches patience - the sartorial lifestyle is a 'slow' lifestyle - and how it breeds a taste for quality and excellence, which will make one cherish these beautiful items, take care of them and hold on to them, maybe even for a lifetime. This is what sustainability is all about. Sonya mentions how in essence THREE suits will do - if your clothes enhance you because they're literally made for you from beautiful materials, you don't want or need to buy something new every couple of weeks. Finally, sartorial is about individuality and personal expression - in addition to being about politesse and courtesy - much more than whatever goes up and down the catwalk. I believe our future is artisanship and handmade quality clothing: it's the only sustainable way to be. Even a mere century ago this was the rule rather than the exception.
I can see by the like response that a few people agree with you already, and we certainly do. Thank you for your remarks ! Hugo and Sonya
Hear, hear! Well said!!
Excellent summary with great insight into the Sartorial lifestyle.
And the tailored/MTM/bespoke stuff isn’t made by children in sweatshops. Custom clothing is a way to support and encourage entrepreneurs and craftsman, look great, and fight the more evil aspects of globalism.
Yes. I've had my off the rack jackets for more than 2 years and I always look forward to the next moment or opportunity I get to wear them. Even my "assembly lined" Allen Edmonds shoes, the black brogue oxford is ultra versatile to name just 1 example. The jackets and shoes suit and fit me so well I got lucky that I didn't need alterations done to them.
Meanwhile, all my sport and comfort wear gets recycled and thrown out every 3-9 months.
I can’t believe someone actually commented ‘why do you talk about clothes when there are real problems in the world’. You both answered the difficult questions so well. Whoever they were, are probably very bitter and joyless people. Your channel spreads a huge amount of passion and love and we are all grateful that you keep the spirit going strong for a more elegant lifestyle and world! With very best wishes from London!
'Beauty is one of the most underrated values on this planet, and (that) beauty is very importa nt.'
Thank you Hugo.
Sonya's reaction to the first question is priceless... chapeau!
P.S.: love the fuchsia suit!
I got lucky, haaa. Cheers from Bourgogne! ~Sonya
Something that I find admirable about Sonya's style is that it challenges the idea that women's clothes are disposable. The steadiness we attribute to men's style vs the variety in the case of women has been used for far too long as an excuse to produce very shitty clothing for women in cheap artificial petroleum fabrics. Even expensive women's shoes maintain no proportion between price and quality: it's all about adornment and flair for single use. In a world whose resources are about to be consumed to exhaustion, a return to long-lasting objects and quality made fabrics and garments is certainly welcome.
Yes Ernesto, this is exactly the message Sonya is spreading. Women are slowly but surely turning toward quality garments (even if they have to wear them more than 3 times !!!). Cheers, Hugo
Fantastic discussion! I’m mesmerized. You’re right Hugo, we’re living at a time where vulgarity and mediocrity reigns supreme. I’m with you, militantly pushing against the herd. ☝️🥴👍🪡🎩👞👔
I very much enjoy learning from your videos. Sonya’s style is chic and sharp. I love how she puts together an outfit. I would dare say Sonya’s style is iconic. Much love from the California Bay Area and cheers to you both, Hugo and Sonya!
I agree, she's an icon (but she doesn't know it!!). Best, Hugo
I really enjoyed this very much. I find it funny when I saw the title I thought, this whole sartorial thing is not that important, there are so many other things. Now to be clear this was just a vague thought when I glanced at it, but after listening I realize, as you both have said, beauty is so important, in fact it is critical to our survival. A society without art will fail. Thanks, so very entertaining:) I have become a huge TLB fan by the way!
Thank you Edmond. We are so glad to read this kind of comments which gives a meaning to our work. And we agree for TLB. They are great! Hugo
Super. Just a few thoughts - 'Look good feel good' 'Clothes maketh the man' “If a woman is poorly dressed, you notice her dress. If a woman is impeccably dressed, you notice the woman.” Coco Chanel. You are right M. Hugo & M. Sonya, in a period of history where the world is upside down and vulgarity has been happy to take the place of class and style, there has to be some refuge, be it in a piece of art, a good book a heart warming film or play or even in a great piece of clothing or shoe. It is these that make us feel a little more human and positively affects the way we act.
Agree AF and you draw some nice parallels in terms of places beauty can be found. Thank you for your remarks !
Cheers, ~Sonya & Hugo
Excellent post! Very well said...
your little antique tables in the background are beautiful, I wonder would you ever make a video or talk about home decor/ interior design?
Why not ? Maybe if there is enough interest! Cheers, Hugo
Empire side tables? Those ones? They are lovely and even better, they have drawers so you can put stuff in them ..
Yes this channel is more than just talking about clothes. It has deeper meaning .Dignity, and sophistication. Yes you are right ,vulgarity is reigning supreme. Profound! You guys keep it up!
Thank you for your kind encouragements! Hugo & Sonya
Yes, Hugo; women and men must be fed to survive. Food for the body, but to nourish the soul, we must have beauty!✨
Stay safe and healthy!✨🌹✨
Thank you Brook! You too. Hugo & Sonya
Sonia.. effortlessly poised and at ease under pressure; With no sign of posturing and as crisp as the first sip of a perfectly chilled champagne. Your intellect, sophistication and humble persona ripples out with every word you speak. The world and especially young women are in desperate need of a mentor and someone they can look up to such as yourself. Still waiting for your individual video…Share and spread your powerful light…
Light up the darkness.
Warmest regards,

Dear Johnny, thank you so much for your incredibly kind words. You can already find many videos of Sonya (in solo) on this channel. For example here : czcams.com/video/v68rzDUtTSo/video.html or here (among so many others) : czcams.com/video/BmFCv-0fPZk/video.html
Cheers, Hugo
Hugo and Sonya,
The recent months have been stressful work-wise and life-wise due to the ongoing pandemic. But your videos have been quite the beacon and highlight of my weeks. I get so excited with every release that I always dress up in a suit and tie (at home) and sometimes open a bottle of wine to enjoy while watching your videos!
I want to thank you for your relentless hard work on Sartorial Talks despite the troubles all around the world and to encourage you to keep up the good fight in supporting artisanship!
With all my love,
Evan
Thank you so much Evan for such a beautiful and encouraging comment. Much love from Bourgogne France (speaking of good wine). Cheers, Hugo & Sonya
It’s fun watching the two of you share absolute joy with each other. The clothing is good, the relationship you two share is priceless.
We are grateful, thank you ! Hugo and Sonya
Can't believe that I missed this video when it was released. This actually might be one of my favorites.
I just love you guys! I started watching your videoes a couple of weeks ago, and I have found that the perfect time to spend 15-30 minutes on your channel is shortly after going through my morning routines and with a cup of coffee in my hand. I always feel uplifted, happy and inspirered to move on with my day by the way you present yourselves, your joyous and warm personalities and of course the good content! Thank you!
This show made for a beautiful, elegant, Sunday morning with my coffee. I love how loving and respectful you are to one another. Many thanks for just being yourselves!
Thank you so much for your kind message. Hugo & Sonya
Oh Sonya is so beautiful, keep doing what you're doing baby because you're glowing like the stars.
Congrats to both of you and hats down.
Greetings from Sweden!
Sonja and Hugo, I thoroughly enjoyed the format! It was a conversation between the two of you, yet it felt like a conversation that I was a part of. The spontaneity of your answers and little details were very pleasant. PS this comment was at 01:11 Paris time, so I must have enjoyed it to be up this late! Cheers
Thank you so much, but don't forget to sleep! Cheers, Hugo & Sonya
Disposable clothes, Disposable people. There is a better way. I really like this episode.
Indeed and second that ! Hugo
I absolutely LOVED this "unplugged" version of you both. You seem to have such wonderful lives and have met such wonderful people along the way. It's a privilege to hear about your experiences. I have both Gentleman books and am waiting for the Shoe book to arrive! Thanks Hugo and Sonya!
Thank you friend for your feedback and for your appreciation of our work. Cheers, Hugo & Sonya
Please continue the fantastic work. Your and Sonya's opinions are an excellent reference point. Great job!
Your honest love for so many people you met and how you share their stories is just wonderful. It fills me with much needed hope in times where darkness and division have gained a foothold once again.
We relate to your words and "hope" is an undervalued response discouragement. Thank you for this inspiration, ~Sonya & Hugo
Watching your candid conversation truly inspires me, a humble consultant in Asia in a small country call Malaysia. Sonya you look stunning in those suit and Hugo you speak style...
Absolutely, I loved it....its important and far reaching to know there is a real hu,an escence behind your enormous lovely work. Love you both!
Thank you so much dear Alexandros. Sonya & Hugo
Another wonderful video presentation! I had the chance to read many of the comments and it’s encouraging to see so many people that appreciate a deeper meaning to Sartorial living than fancy, expensive clothes. It is, of course, so much more than that. It’s a cliche’, but this lifestyle constitutes another wonderful way to “stop and smell the roses.” To take in and enjoy beauty, grace, and individual expression. It’s reflective and contemplative and expressive all at once.
What I truly admire about both of you is that your message inclusive. Your videos and books and discussions are open invitations to learn and enjoy the timeless contentment of sartorial living.
Oh, BTW - just began reading and enjoying “The Measure of a Man”. Thank you for the tip!
Thank you so much Dan for your thoughtful comments and constant support. And "Measure of a Man" is such a touching story! Cheers, Hugo & Sonya
This kind of sentimental unplanned episodes is by far amazing, i loved each second of it ,,,i was flaying with you in a very good mood. The beginning was so funny with your face expression Hugo( I really laughed loud), loved the harmony of your both suits, the tie & the scarf of Dear Sonya are superb .Love to you from Cairo.
Many thanks Nader for your kind words and your loyalty. Cheers, Hugo & Sonya
I have just discovered this wonderful channel. Thank you for such inspiring videos. 🎩✨
Hello to you both!
Thank you so much for these episodes. While I always look forward to watching new episodes, I do also find it calming to have them on in the background while I'm doing something else.
I know that it seems redundant to give a suggestion for an unstructured conversation, but I thought I might offer my two cents nonetheless: my favourite episodes tend to be those where you are taking turns to speak. At times, it can be difficult to follow the conversation when the voices are overlapping.
Of course, I am just happy that you are making videos at all!
Stay safe,
Justin
Just recently found your channel. I wish I had found it sooner. Please keep doing what you are doing.
Hugo, I can say that from the beginning when I began viewing your videos I noticed Sonya often wore men's clothes & admittedly I was a little taken aback. But I must say since I've viewed more & more of your videos I truly enjoy them. I glean so much information from your guests and I've come to truly enjoy Sonya's style, her image, her knowledge. I look forward to seeing both of you because as a couple the two of you are a delight. I particularly loved Sonya's video on hats as I have been a fan of hats & hat etiquette for many years. I've noticed more men seem to be sporting hats these days. I hope it's a sign of a return of the hat. I myself wear fedoras and have a small collection. Like Hugo I am a believer in suspenders. Thank you both for all you do. Sonya, you look stunning in your suits & ties. Thanks to both of you.
Always a pleasure to hear you talking about tailoring in both french and english.
Also forever grateful for having me pushed into this way, making me discover an unexpected and fantastic world! I've started wearing what you'd call "proper suits" -unfortunately not bespoke suits yet- approximately a year ago and it's changed my life. No matter where I am (in France or abroad), I can genuinely feel that people don't look at me the same (or maybe it's only my own perception of myself...or both!?). Whatever, thank you so much Hugo (and Sonya!), I sincerely hope I'll get the chance to meet you someday and tell you how much you've helped me!
Merci encore !
Thank you so much for your wonderful message. This kind of messages gives a meaning to our work and a lot of energy to our team. And you can be sure people don't look at you the same way. Congratulations, Hugo & Sonya
Double, triple and so on tumbs up for this episode! I love this concept. As everytime inspiring!
Merci Norbert ! Hugo & Sonya
This is a fun format. Definitely keep having these sorts of chats.
Thank you Lilith, we'll continuer then! Hugo & Sonya
Always a breath of joy and passion to hear you two!!! Merci Sonya & Hugo!
Merci Marc ! Hugo & Sonya
Like this episode. You two are fantastic and born for each other.
I absolutely love and appreciate your presentations on CZcams. They are a wonderful,relevant, and necessary departure from this difficult time we’re living through. Keep it up. I’m watching.

It means a lot, Dwight. Thank you and greetings from Bourgogne. Hugo and Sonya
Absolutely loved this conversation, Mr. Hugo and Ms Sonia .... I enjoy each one of your episodes...
So nice to read. Thank you, Hugo and Sonya
What an amazing channel, love from Brazil!
The more I listen to this impressive couple, the more I like them. I'm very impressive by how articulate Hugo is in english. Bravo !
Hello Hugo and Sonya, I just discovered your channel recently and I can’t tell you how glad I’m to hear your soothing voices in every video/podcast. I’m just about to start my sartorial jurney and your content is amazing to learn from. Keep up the great work, stay safe and greetings from Croatia!
I listen to your podcasts every day on my commute to and from work, on wlaks with my dog etc. and you keep a smile on my face, you provide such a great quality content. I just love your work!
We are happy you are here and are starting your own sartorial path! Hugo and Sonya
Hey Tin, We're always really glad to get Podcast feedback. Thanks ! ~Sonya
I recently have discovered this channel. I love it very much, and must admit that I appreciate this unscripted format of conversation very deeply.
It allows for a certain purity to come through. Perhaps it is only the honest expression of thought and emotion, but that alone is so powerful.
This raw, natural quality is something that I seek in every art form, no matter how sophisticated or refined. (Perhaps a different form of what the Japanese would call wabi sabi?)
After all, even conversation is an art form. What are "conversation" and "art" if not expressions of oneself?
So i say let us all be exclamations of existence!!! From our fashion to our voice.
Whether expressing pleasure or pain, celebrating style or mourning the loss of maestros, such is the art of living.
I sincerely appreciate your passion. Thank you both for doing what you do.
Sartoria La Montagna (based in Napoli) is fantastic; her pieces are truly works of art; Pino Peluso should also be in the top tier of anyone's list. I'm glad you mentioned Dalcuore - another pure artist.
I could listen to both of you for hours... wait, I already do.
Thanks, I love your work.
Merci David! Pino (Peluso) is indeed a great tailor (and a good friend of us). We don't know anything about la Montagna, but we'll take a look for sure. Hugo & Sonya
Thanks for the transparency.
The two of you are awesome! I've said this before but you both make my day brighter. Sonya looks clean, clean, clean in those photos. I wish more women wore suits and looked good in them. I do so appreciate your contributions to this world. I look forward to more of your talks.
Thank you so much Rob for your words of encouragement. Very much appreciated here. Hugo & Sonya
I really enjoyed the format of this episode, more of this off the cuff style would be great!
Let's go then! Hugo & Sonya
U and your wife have changed my Life completely. I feel like a new person thank you for everything you do 🙏🏿🙏🏿🌟🌟
I love watching you discuss some of the finer details of style. Keep this up Hugo/Sonya.
Many thanks Alexander! Hugo & Sonya
Hi ! Always a pleasure to listen to you
Merci MD ! Hugo and Sonya
Hugo and Sonya! do this again! Your passion drives this channel!
Thanks for your encouragements! Hugo & Sonya
Superb! Love the free, flowing style!
Thanks for this energy, Cheers! ~Sonya & Hugo
This was good. I really like seeing all of the pictures and instagrams to follow too!
Thank you Caleb! Hugo & Sonya
Another great chat. So good to listen in to you guys. And I absolutely love the POW overcoat Sonya was wearing in that B&W shot. I’d love to get something similar. And I love the eloquent explanation that Sonya’s way of dressing is tailored clothing not men’s clothes.
Many thanks Ryan. Sonya's POW overcoat is a unique garment, made with a Zegna vintage cashmere of the late 1950s. This piece of tailoring is an incredible piece with more than 20 hand mande Milanese buttonholes. Gianni made us promise to donate it to a museum later (so that has work could be remembered). Cheers, Hugo & Sonya
@@SARTORIALTALKS So interesting. That explains why it’s so beautiful.
Very lovely casual chat between you both. A bit of a privilege for all of us here to join you in a candid conversation!
Its our privilege that you have chosen to watch. Cheers! Hugo and Sonya
Hugo seems so relaxed in this video, maybe because he's tired from the previous session? I kinda like it. To be honest I've always liked this channel more than any other channels about men's style on CZcams. Hugo is all about bespoke tailoring and craftsmanship but always very creative and free in idea about forming one's own style. Something that other channels are quite stiff and thus boring in idea. Here I really feel like I've learned so much in forming and refining my own style. So I love the channel's free and creative nature yet sharing a great appreciation in craftsmanship. Beautiful, creative, fun yet extremely elegant!
Humbled, thank you very much. And yes as the day winds down, my mind finally calms. Cheers ! Hugo
I love the talk about the sartorial lifestyle. I'd say at least 3 years ago having ignorance about craftmanship my wardrobe was full of fashion "etiquette" clothes. Guess what? I tossed away half of them and give them to other people keeping only a few. Thanks to channels like Sartorial talks I started looking for fabrics from Loro Piana or Vitale Barberis Canonico, learning more about the wool, looking for shoes with full-grain leather, and good stitching etc. I end up liking navy blue and charcoal colors and I start building my wardrobe again little by little. I don't spend money on clothes as I used to. In fact, I buy once a year or two but the quality of the product rewards me.
We are always grateful to read a personal story like yours, a story which a growing number of people relate to, directly. Did you have a "defining moment" maybe---the same question Hugo asked me here? Would be interesting to know if there was one specific moment when everything clicked in you mind and you said "THIS is the (sartorial) way for me"! Cheers! ~Sonya
@@SARTORIALTALKS I cannot think of a definitive moment but definitely, i can name a friend of my father who's style was elegant and I always admired. Perhaps my conversations with him about man principles and how these are reflecting on your daily dressing and behavior start to affect my choices and my manners. You can say i had a good mentor :)
Enjoined very much this episode
Dressing well is one of the greatest pleasures in life and can drastically improve your mood and self-esteem. Bravo!
"It's just wearing tailored clothes." Perfect answer.
Yes, she answered perfectly indeed David. Hugo
Hugo, you and Sonya create perfect videos. They are exactly what i’ve been looking for. As you already know the world of being a gentleman is vast and can be overwhelming. Could you please create some more content around mens accessories specifically leather briefcases?
Thank you that was great, much enjoyed.
Our pleasure. Hugo & Sonya
You spoke to my heart with this one. I'm with you. Beauty from craftsmanship and works of art are appreciated by everyone, yet I found amongst many contemporary intellectuals, an insidious doubt creeps into the mind and seems to de-value it and doubt it's purpose. They say they like it, but few are compelled to act to preserve our cultural artefacts. As an artist, I try to create beauty that will outlast trends, yet it's difficult to find people with the taste to appreciate it. You shine a light on the sartorial domain to preserve it.
Thank you for for all your videos, I love this unscripted one.
DZ
Dear David, You raise a sociological conundrum regarding how perceptions shift and brains have been washed for the worse, I'm afraid. But there are those who perceive well, beauty and depth of meaning. Hopefully we can find places to gather together (as we have tried to create a place here). ~Sonya & Hugo
Biggest surprise.. Hugo still alive after that first question . 😅😅😅. Love both you guys. 👍❤️
Hahaha
Hahaha yes, I just wanted to try this question "live" and see how she'll answer. And she did great !! Hugo
Sonya looks incredible 🤩😅
I find women in suits rather intimidating. Probably because I usually see them in court though 🤣
Hi D3V, I would never intimidate you and sorry for causing flashbacks. Ha ! Thank you, ~Sonya
I actually noticing all small tailor shops are here in Bologna ..since I started watching your videos. Thanks again , there's such a homeness upon watching you guys ..in a way a coming back in our humanity the way you channel the values of human relations through craftsmanship.. in this era of made who knows where
Yes David, thank you for translating so well what we want to say. Cheers, Hugo & Sonya
I like this format. I like the psychological stuff, all very true. Maybe the next episode can talk about your favorite travel spots/funny stories etc, let teh audience get to know you a lil bit (of course if you're comfortable with it).
We can do this, but we don't want to become the subject of the show. The subject is elegance and the sartorial lifestyle. All our best! Hugo & Sonya
Très ravi encore une fois d’assister à vos excellentes vidéos. Thank you both....Abdou from Oslo..
Merci Abdou ! Hugo & Sonya
Hugo & Sonya....
Thank you for your time and taste !!
I see 100k subscribers around the corner.
Awesome
Hope you are right, it is a significant symbol for us. Thank you for watching. Hugo and Sonya
Wow Sonya, you are positively glowing in your photos!
She's fantastic! Hugo
"Beauty is one of the most underrated values on this planet". I like to understand the value of everything (as an exponent of Charlie Munger flavoured value investing). Been trying to articulate this fascination and concentration on sartorial exploits along with painting, sculpture, music, poems, philosophy etc. And he just nailed it. "Beauty is one of the most underrated 'values' on this planet".
Thank you so much my friend. Cheers, Hugo
A bit different from your usual conversations, but I do have to say it was very enjoyable, keep up the good work.
You guys dress so elegantly! Have to say though, Sonya dress with so much personality. I really like the combination and textures. Keep up with your good work!
Best couple ever! How can you remember so many names? Absolutely amazing. Thank you for your work. Regards from Puerto Rico.
Hi H, We make a lot of repeat visits to get to know people we suspect to be gifted artisans or great curators of style---and suppose the better memory is a result of the repetition. Welcom and thank you, Hugo and Sonya
I happened upon this channel in search of how to adjust my clothes. The content and style is impressive, elegant toward transcendent. It will take me some time to review what lovely video there is here. I had spent some time when I worked for the USA in Lyon but only in passing in Paris. Thank you for producing some work in English. If you have the chance to visit my little town of Port Washington, Wisconsin USA I would be very pleased to show you my little port and the Allen Edmunds factory. That company is moving away from sartorial direction to meet the domestic market. Best, AWB.
Hugo I agree I get happy seeing a man in a suit.
Great show this why I love you two and very glad to be apart of this sartorial lifestyle
Merci Aireney! Hugo & Sonya
Excellent Talk. It was amazing. Merci beaucoup 👌. Greetings from The Doc Mentor
Many thanks Doc! Hugo & Sonya
Thanku dear Hugo. Fantastic content as usual. Thanku somuch. Just ignore jealous & scruffy(badly dressed)people. They are the once who say things like, better things to worry. You both are super elegant. We love to see and hear of you. Please keep it coming. We learning
I take your advice. Cheers ! Hugo
Piece of the action! Heck ya. Great answer
Piece of action is always always a great answer ! haha ~Sonya
I like very much Sartorial Talks! Congratulations to Hugo and Sônia! Regards from Brazil
Merci Antonio! Hugo & Sonya
@@SARTORIALTALKS you are very welcome
so true. sometimes, all you need is to dress well (not necessarily dressing expensive), not medication or vacation. dressing well has a positive impact on mental health, boosts self confidence and its a good way of self discipline and commanding respect!
I always enjoy your thoughts and perspective on life Sonya and Hugo. Your CZcams channel has inspired me to upgrade my garments. I totally agree with Hugo's point of view (not from this video) - he said (I'm paraphrasing) that I can decide to spend my money on a quality pair of shoes instead of several cheap and poor quality ones, or on another Ikea piece of furniture.
This type of remark is why we do what we do. Thanks for making us a small part of your life. Cheers, Hugo and Sonya
Still greatful for the recommendation of TLB Mallorca. I bought a fantastic pair of balmoral boots after I saw the brand in one of your videos and I absolutely love them! Great material that feels incredible soft, a awesome design and unbelieveable comfort for an absolutely fair price, especially if you consider the quality. For everybody who is reading this: Have a look, it's definitely worth it.
Thank you Julius. We think TLB can indeed be among the best value for money these days. Cheers, Hugo
Very nice episode...
Merci Ali. Hugo & Sonya
Sending this now to.... everyone!
The comment about beauty applies to so much else in life. Appreciating beauty in one area always makes me more open/receptive and aware of it in others.
Well said and I agree. Cheers, Hugo
@@SARTORIALTALKS On a slightly unrelated topic...I watched your episode on "Sprezzatura". I understand the concept of calculated nonchalance in dress, but is there a dimension related to manners and etiquette when it comes to Sprezzatura?
I love what you Guys are doing, and definitely I fallen in love with sartorial world, although on the daily basis I don't have many opportunities to wear suits, but jackets and more casual trousers are my best friends.
About this question for "more important issues in the world".
Lets leave them for specialist and not try to push the propaganda into every bit of our lives.
Keep good work :)
Best wishes to you both ❤️
Thank you very much Piotr for your message. Best wishes to you, Hugo & Sonya
un très beau couple on ne s’en lasse jamais merci pour cette chronique chapeau les Amoureux.
Merci beaucoup ! Hugo & Sonya
Very impressed by G.H. Boyer’s style, also the “girl from Australia” and of course Sonya too.
Sonya, I *really* like the fun and classy look shown in the middle image at 21:01. It’s perfect.
It's a bespoke suit by Dalcuore (in an oversized check pattern). Cheers, Hugo
Very nice! And it’s good you become sentimental, it’s more personal,. 👏👏👏
Beauty is so important, Hugo. Thank you for saying that. Our ancestors (especially your French ancestors ;)) understood this very well
This is therapeutic!
Ha, your comment is therapeutic (and encouraging) for us. Cheers, Hugo
Entirely in agreement with you. Being well dressed gives one confidence and lifts his mood tremendously.
Yes Omar! All the best, Hugo & Sonya
After watching most of your videos I just had to give bespoke a try. Honestly, I feel like after trying out bespoke once, I find it life-changing. When I was a student I would get off the rack suits and my parents will tell me bespoke is too expensive. I use to think suits were uncomfortable because of the way it fitted but I've always liked the clothing style. But once I got my first bespoke suit it just feels better and more comfortable and now that I have tried bespoke I just can't go back to off the rack suits and I even try to convince my father and friends to try bespoke. I guess most of the time they think the only place you can get nice quality suits are from big fashion brands and bespoke tailors are just more expensive than the big fashion brands. Sometimes my father thinks I'm crazy to wear a suit in 30 celsius.
Lovely conversation. And for the person who said "There are more important things in the world"... I quote Hugo, change the channel. Amen to that.
I agree with Hugo though... Worldwide, it's quite rare to see someone who is wearing a suit and wants to make it look great because they want to. Even in New York City. Very rare. With my day jobs in retail, I always compliment people who put in the time to dress themselves. And it looks like they never get tired of the compliments as they are so thankful for them.
Yes, beauty is underrated but important in the world.
Hi Sonya and Hugo you are looking like a champion fashion team as always. I enjoyed the video. Take care
Thank you Khoder. Hugo & Sonya
Amazing Again
nice.. I enjoyed it
Happy to know. Cheers to you, Hugo and Sonya
