I never really scope brands way out of my price/size range. But it is fun to fantasize. So f as up, if you were a zillionaire, what brands would fill your closet.

My staples would absolutely come from Akris: https://us.akris.com/collections/akris-architectural

Not a staple, but this skirt is awesome: https://us.akris.com/products/pencil...appa-leather-1

And I’d definitely get shoes from here:
https://www.fredasalvador.com/
And here:
https://shop.alumnae.nyc/

And I still need to think about the non staples.

I would probably hire a personal style assistant from Neiman Marcus or one of those type stores. I don't require expensive clothing as it doesn't fit my lifestyle right now but I do love fashion.

This is the route I'd go too. The only benefit for me of having an unlimited budget would be to be able to hire someone to dress me nicely.

Problem is that many higher end brands run too small in an XXL that I would have to go to their big & tall collections. Two brands that I have good experience with are IZOD and Nautica. I really love IZOD's styles, especially their Spring collections. Spring 2018 was probably my all-time favorite.

I would wear Tadashi Shoji gowns all day, every day. Or Christian Siriano.

Pretend money is no object - what brand would you get?


I wouldn't. Sorry, I know that's not what you wanted to hear, but ......

If I was really that rich I'd create my own brands and provide employment for many other highly talented people who would design and produce magnificent creations from the practical and utilitarian all the way up to fantastical and utterly useless. Better to be letting my money generate a lot more business and money for me and my employees rather than to be spending it on other people's brands and making them richer.

My shoes would come from Crockett & Jones, Edward Green and John Lobb, but only bespoke/custom made.
