During NYFW '21 we got the chance to sit (virtually) with some creatives within the fashion community. We closed out the week with a 1:1 with Ilbert J Sanchez of Garcon Couture:
Q: Have you always loved hats? / A: I revert back to high school so much because that’s when I had the transition of understanding who I really was as far as being a Black man in the South Bronx of New York, so I used to always wear fitted hats with the Yankees or Knicks logos, but I started to really understand hatting with my business partner Gilly who introduced me to Goorin Bros.
Q: Why is style so important? / A: Self-Expression is one of the biggest pieces to who you really are and sometimes we hesitate on expressing who we are from outside. For me, I always have dressed how I’ve felt. You feel the most yourself when you can dress with no limitations.
