STYLE FOR MILES: eric ellis.

Meet Eric. he is my coworker. he has mad style.
(… sort of Chasing IVY meets Royal Tannenbaums meets Madmen meets JCrew-esque.)
ive decided to do a drive by every day for the next 5 days to make him stand still for 2 seconds so i can shoot + post him.
likely annoying for him, but it would be selfish to not share his wardrobe with others, yes?
he’s our very own MR.PORTER here @ Ogilvy.
oh, and hes not just a fashion plate of inspiration for everyone, hes also a pretty talented designer.
