Sean Crowley is a neckwear designer for a Major Brand (we can’t tell you who, but it’s probably the pre-eminent name in menswear in America). He lives in a Brooklyn apartment crammed floor to ceiling with the accoutrements of a gentleman’s lifestyle, from rowing paddles to cocktail ingredients to neckties. Thousands and thousands of neckties, which hang on a custom rack he built by hand with his father. They serve as inspiration for his designs and for the vintage-styled outfits he wears to work every day.
In this special bonus preview segment for Season Two of Put This On, a web series about dressing like a grownup, he talks about his obsession with collecting (some would say hoarding) ties, and how his style became his style.
Season Two of Put This On premieres on Tuesday, March 13th.
