3. AMI

Created in and inspired by Paris, AMI offers stylish and comprehensive wardrobes for men and women, playing with the boundaries between casual and chic. AMI captures a particular type of the French capital’s nonchalance: relaxed, authentic, and friendly. The name AMI, the French word for friend, plays with the initials of the designer and founder Alexandre Mattiussi. 

4. Saint Laurent

From grunge to glam rock, music subcultures are a constant in YSL designs regardless of which designer is at the helm. From skinny jeans and plaid button-down shirts to Chelsea boots, the Parisian label’s core pieces operated as stylish essentials in the real world. If you are looking for designer street cred, this is your brand. 

5. Husbands

For founder Nicolas Gabard there is no such thing as weekend wear. He created Husbands because he wasn’t able to find the clothing for the man he wanted to be. He became a lawyer to please his father but spent his free time hunting through flea markets for vintage clothing.

Most of the time, he couldn’t find what he was looking for, even when he started using a tailor. Husbands fills the gap between mass-produced and bespoke suits. His catalog changes little from season to season and contains the basic components of an elegant man’s wardrobe, including double-breasted suits, tweed jackets, blazers, trench coats, Chelsea boots, silk ties, and scarves.
