Fun fact: when we decided to visit New York for this season of HandCut Radio, one name came up time and again: “you’ve gotta speak to Ouigi”, “oh, you’re headed to NYC, well then, make sure you speak to Ouigi…” So, we did.Ouigi Theodore is a pillar of the NYC style scene, and the founder of much-loved store, The Brooklyn Circus. He speaks to Aleks about his pre-menswear career as a party promoter, explains why he’s building a community-driven “100 Year Plan”, and he talks about why life is all about how you dress to show up. ---HandCut Radio is produced by Birch, the London based creative office of James Allen. Our theme music is by Joe Boyd.HandCut Radio is proud to be sponsored by Thomas Mason, an historic mill that’s been supplying famous designers, shirtmakers and tailors with world class shirting fabrics since 1796.---Show Notes:Ouigi Theodore — Instagram | Website[01:28] The Brooklyn Circus[03:36] Stevie Wonder[03:39] Earth, Wind & Fire[04:07] Brian Davis on HandCut Radio[04:58] Stony Brook University[11:46] PROJECT, New York[13:38] Fabolous (rapper)[14:12] Evisu[17:37] Opening Ceremony[29:11] Mobb Deep[29:56] Black Ivy: A Revolt in Style (book)[30:02] Street Etiquette[35:13] Andre 3000[47:32] Jason Jules
