Relaxing between shows

Relaxing between shows
Posted May 3rd, 2010 at 6:04 PM by Steve Cohen in How The World Works, Luxury

I own four tuxedos. Most people who meet me at a performance will see me dressed up in one.

Here’s a photo of me, in between shows at the Waldorf, wearing my plush bathrobe. I was practicing a card trick.

I’ve never released casual photos like this one before. It feels somewhat obscene.

For those who are interested in formalwear, two of my tuxedos are actually morning coat ensembles from Gieves & Hawkes, the British tailor located at No. 1, Saville Row, London. (In modern American English, morning coats are known as cutaway coats.) I bought both of my morning coats during trips to London. I’m eager to return, for another shopping spree.

This is the ensemble that I often wear:

The third tux is a standard black dinner jacket combination, and the fourth is a Scottish black watch dinner jacket.

I don’t wear this plaid dinner jacket very much anymore, since it’s a little gaudy. And that’s coming from a guy who prances around in a tailcoat.

You can buy the same bathrobe that I wear at the Waldorf, by clicking HERE. Warning: it’s so comfortable, it’s addictive.

Steve – I don’t think a picture taken in a W-A room wearing a W-A robe could ever be considered obscene.

Of course I was being playfully sarcastic, Sean. Maybe I could have shown a little more leg.

Thanks for your note — I’m glad you are reading this blog, and appreciate your feedback.

That dinner jacket is pretty amazing, though. Dare I ask where you acquired it?

And thanks for the tip-off on where you get your morning coats: we can all be the next Steve Cohen now, just by purchasing one of those ensembles. After all, the clothes make the man, right? :-)

Keep up the great work,

~ Peter

Peter, all my suits (and tuxedos) are custom-tailored. If you’re interested, contact Trinity Apparel. Ask for Bill in their Connecticut office. They do a marvelous job, and have for years.
