Ethan Newton on why personal expression is everything | #021
To kick-start Season Three, we could think of few menswear aficionados better suited than Ethan Newton, co-founder of one of Asia’s coolest indie menswear emporiums, Bryceland’s & Co.
Ethan’s reputation within menswear precedes him. Together with his partner, Kenji Cheung, Ethan has created a brand with cult status to indie menswear-heads. Bryceland’s & Co’s diverse collection ranges from mid-century inspired Americana to unique strands of Southern Italian tailoring. Ethan’s passion for clothing is extraordinary, as is his self-assured perspective on what makes menswear special. Tune in for some insight into the founding philosophy of Bryceland’s & Co, Ethan’s own take on where indie menswear’s at, and to hear the two explore Ethan’s own personal mantra: ‘if you like who are, be who you are”. We hope you enjoy.
