Gentleman’s Closet
A gentleman’s closet will be split according to attire, giving choice to the occasion, with a variety of watches, ties, cufflinks, shoes and of course wallets. I have always liked the shape of the dress wallet and have fond memories of classic British movies with gentlemen pulling out those wonderful old large banknotes, with that slightly affected but still dramatic snapping of fingers over the note to make sure you are giving not 2 and to hear that crisp sound of a new banknote.
Be creative with your look
My feeling is that a gentleman can have great joy and creativity in adding some individuality to their accessories and for me I adore the colour pink, and yes not only do men look great in pink there is precedent and history of gentlemen wearing the colour, and you never know ladies may not only notice you more but see you in a new light.
My choice was to mix the colours pink and grey in a two-tone style combining the elegance of tradition with the modernity and frivolity of colour.
My suggestion would be to create a modern version of a dance card you can keep in them to use at opportune or amusing moments.
Gentlemen can wear pink
There is an assumption that pink is a feminine colour, but there are references throughout time to the link with gentlemen from The Great Gatsby to Dandies to Victoriana to those out an about boating in Henley, gentleman of class have used the colour pink in the wardrobe and their home.

On a personal level it was a joy to meet the team and valued their courtesy and warmth and had a smile ear to ear when I saw the finished wallet.
