How would you compare style on the streets in Italy to that of New York City? Fashion lives in Europe - Italy and France especially - but New York is a very international city so you see absolutely every type of style everywhere you look. People wear what they feel like wearing, whatever their mood is, without a care of what others think. That's a very exciting part of New York - you see such different people all mingled together.
New York
Name: Franco Loropiana
What do you do? I'm a buyer for Bergdorf Goodman.
Where are you from? I'm from Torino, Italy but I've lived in New York for 2 years.
Who are your favorite menwear designers? For myself, I like very classical style, so rather than turning to a specific designer, I wear suits that are custom made and tailored for me. But in terms of who is driving the trends in the fashion world, I respect the work of Tom Ford and Thom Browne.
What do you wear when you're not in a suit? Usually basic jeans and a T-shirt.

What most inspires you? Music, definitely. I'm also very inspired by photography, beautiful light, nature...
What's your favorite type of music? Reggae.
