One of the greatest dandies, writers, journalists of our time, or anytime, left us today.

He will be missed.

He was loyal to one tailor. Vincent Nicolosi.

'The Kingdom of Speech' is a fantastic read.

I had been in the process of making Tom a suit. Despite his body being in decline, his mind and eyes were of a young man. I last saw him about 3 months ago at his apartment in NYC. It was an honor to spend time with him and to listen to the way his mind works.
