An Editorial Journal of Craft, Culture, and the Considered Life
By Stacy Stewart Smith — New York Atelier

It is not how you start, but how you finish, that matters. Couture Reformation opens behind a Wedgwood Blue door on Chicago's South Side — the Sa-Mer Sewing Center, 1970s, where a teenager learned that a gift is only worth having if it is accompanied by dignity. From that beginning, across decades of work, a philosophy was formed. This volume is where it speaks.

Couture Reformation is the second volume of Atelier Quarterly — a 66-page menswear couture magazine written and designed by Stacy Stewart Smith. It makes the argument that couture belongs to men, that the kilt is the last unconquered frontier in formal menswear, and that the well-dressed man is not following fashion. He is reforming it.
