ALTON LANE BRINGS BESPOKE MENSWEAR TO ATLANTA
/
The premier custom men’s clothier, Alton Lane, will open its eighth retail location, a 2,000-square-foot private showroom in Buckhead, on May 25th, bringing bespoke tailoring, 3D body scanning technology and an unprecedented customer experience to the men of Atlanta.
Alton Lane offers a full collection of custom clothing for business, social events and weddings, including suits, shirts, trousers, blazers, tuxedos, overcoats, and accessories. The appointment-only showroom creates a private, comfortable shopping experience, featuring custom leather couches, a fully-stocked design bar and flat-screen TVs.
“We are extremely excited to introduce the Alton Lane experience to the men of Atlanta,” said Colin Hunter, Alton Lane’s co-founder and CEO. “We look forward to providing top-notch client care and a curated selection of some of the world’s best fabrics in an incredibly comfortable environment.”
Founded by Hunter and Peyton Jenkins in 2009, Alton Lane has showrooms around the country, including a 31 ft. custom-built mobile showroom. They outfit a variety of clients, including top business professionals, former presidents, professional athletes, Emmy award-winning actors and Oscar-nominated directors, all of whom attribute custom fit and the personalized experience as key strengths of the brand.
Alton Lane uses 3D body scanning technology to capture 300 measurements in just 30 seconds, creating a digital avatar for each client. Once all the size specifications are confirmed, the client’s order is submitted directly to the Alton Lane’s partner factories around the world, where the clothes are hand-cut according to the client’s exact specifications and usually arrive within four to six weeks.
With a strong commitment to excellence and quality, Alton Lane offers a wide selection of premium fabrics from the most prestigious textile houses in the world, including Scabal, Dormeuil, Zegna, Vitale Barberis, Thomas Mason and Albini. Custom shirts range from $99 to $500; custom suits range from $595 to $10,000.
The Atlanta showroom, led by new showroom director Calvin Fields, will be open by appointment beginning on May 26th.

The Suitable Man
/
It's party time!
But first, let's rewind...
Many months back,
partnered with
on a pretty ambitious campaign. Together, they hand-picked five men who represented a range of diversity from age to career to ethnicity, orientation and personal style.
I am thrilled to be a part of this group.
Trio Tailoring, an Atlanta based custom suit company met with each one of us, took our measurements and allowed us to choose our fabrics. This was a very detailed, very hands-on experience. Super fine wools and Egyptian cottons were only the beginning. We also chose colors and patterns to suit our personality. Placket, cuffs, collar width, etc , etc??? All choices for us to personalize our suit.
Guys, this is the way to shop!
When the suits were ready, Trio Tailoring scheduled a fitting and a couple weeks later, Eidé Magazine arranged a photo shoot. It was fantastic! We looked so dapper and stylish, classic and modern. The images are featured in Eidé Magazine.
On Thursday, October 25th, celebrate
The Suitable Man
with Eidé Magazine, Trio Tailoring and five of the best dressed men in the city (thanks Trio!) The party starts at 7pm at Park Tavern.
