Today and tomorrow afternoon, Barneys New York customers in Manhattan can get their Band of Outsiders suits made to measure by legendary tailor Martin Greenfield, who has been supplying hand-tailored garments to elite retailers and personages (several former presidents are customers) for more than six decades. "Scott [Sternberg] works harder than any designer I've ever met," says Greenfield. (He should know—he's also been piecing together all of Band of Outsiders' off-the-rack suiting—with Sternberg's signature shirt lining and vintage wools—since the former CAA agent broke into tailored wear. "He's a very talented guy, he's very quality-conscious, and quality is the key to everything you do." Can't make it? Greenfield will be hitting the store's L.A. outpost next month.
