PETER MAX-MULLER From Model to Stylist

Model

Stylist

Peter knows a lot about styling slick good looking guys. He should know, he began his career in fashion modeling looking slick himself. Since then he's moved into styling for Nylon, Details, Interview, Black Book, Lumo Vogue, Elle and a slew of Hollywood's leading men. Peter sent us thoughts about styling...

"My last modeling agent was CLICK Models in LA, NY and Paris. Modeling helped a lot because it exposed me to the world of fashion, and it showed me the different jobs that you could get...I grew up in a place with no fashion or style, and I love the fact that clothes gives people away to express themselves.. 

Its crazy now with the internet how fast that fashion can go from the runway to the streets...So many more people and men are exposed to this stuff...The biggest mistake people make though is to copy things in magazines that dont fit with there personality, they try and do too much and in the end, look a bit silly... If you want to be stylish or cool the number one rule is that you have to be consistent.. Also a good rule of thumb is don't wear clothes with graphics or logos, its never cool to look like a bill board!!!  

I have worked with alot of men. Maroon 5, Dylan Mcdermott, Channing Tatum...I am most excited to work with this new singer Christian TV. We just did his video last week and think he is going to become big in the world of fashion for men..."

We want to thank Peter for leading the charge in bringing some new class and excitement in men's styling which sometimes suffers from being overly casual. Thanks for the tips!

Christian from ENGLISH LAUNDRY by Christopher Wicks

Christian Wicks is the President of ENGLISH LAUNDRY by Christopher Wicks, a slick LA Men's line with a hint of the Manchester roots of the family. (Look for the NEW Scott Weiland Collection for some smart shirt-tie combos) We walked around their huge rock-influenced facilities in Downtown LA where they do all the packaging and catalogue shooting in house. Christian is the brains behind the large apparel and accessories line and still remains stylish and cool with heart. He told us that they donate large amounts of clothing for our wounded soldiers which we think is very very cool and right up our alley. We are happy to make Christian Wicks and LA based ENGLISH LAUNDRY part of the SOMW family.

This is what Scott Weiland said about his new line in April's Issue of Details Magazine.
"There's a sense of history and classiness there. It's very much based in the late-sixties, early-seventies Savile Row style. All of the cloth is vintage from that period. I'm obsessed with fabric. I prefer a three-piece suit myself. Very sixties rock and roll. But they're not too quirky. Businessmen could wear them."
