New York-based custom clothing company Proper Cloth is coming to downtown Washington, DC in 2025.
Washington DC Fashion and Style
Believe it or not, Washington, DC has become a destination for professional men’s clothing in recent years, from high-profile retailers Bonobos and Dutch-based Suit Supply (and the HMX Group’s regrettably short-lived Streets of Georgetown) to custom tailors Alton Lane and Knot Standard.
Add to that home-grown talent from the likes of Hugh & Crye, and you have an emerging community catering to modern professional men.
This new energy builds on a rich history of style in the District, including tailors and retail professionals such as Geoffrey Lewis who have been in the business for decades and who are also well-worth getting to know better.
