Designer of the week is American Designer Sam Shipley. Full of life and inspiration, Shipley started walking the path of fashion. Senior year of college, Shipley launched a men's collection named Trovata with his closest friends John Whitledge, Jeff Halmos, and Josie Egan. After 5 years of working along side his friends, Shipley and Halmos left to start a new chapter which lead them to New York City. New York City became the home of Shipley and Halmos as we know it today. The best way to describe the Shipley and Halmos brand is timeless. The brand designs continuously pays respect to the classic American tradition while remaining true to the vision of Sam Shipley and Jeff Halmos. 
To spark individuality and conversation. View the clothing not as a disguise but as an extension of yourself. With it's attention to detail, fit, quality of the materials and it's approachability over being trendy. This brand continues to be top ranked among the other brands out there. I think what draws me in the most is the determination these two have to sit down each season and come up with their next story. From Fashion to Reality as many like to say. This is a brand worth investing in not to mention going to their shows. It is sad to find out that these two ended up going their separate ways. What that means for the brand, only time will tell.
