Today's spotlight is a special one for one of our youngest team members (Sierra Vintin) who just hit her 1 year milestone. Coming to us right after graduating from Appalachian State with a degree in Apparel Design and Merchandising, Sierra is multi talented in all facets of the business. On any given day you can find her working custom suiting appointments, managing (and sewing) our alterations, designing custom linings...the list goes on. It has been such a pleasure to have her as part of the team and below is our recent sit down with her so that we could share a little more about her to all of you!

It's summer and we are celebrating the launch of our new summer suiting/jacket fabrics, swimwear and other new seasonal releases with a summer themed soirée you are all invited to! Join us for great music, drinks, some hot dogs curtesy of JJ's Red Hots and King of Pops!

For anyone that has been by the store over the last 3 years, you may have heard us talking about a certain Whiskey Club that we would "soon" be launching. Well, in-spite of my personal procrastination, the day is finally here and we are so excited. This past Friday we held our first official whiskey club event and kickoff, and we had our buddy Trey Wade, also Chief Experience Curator for Blue Run Spirits, on hand doing the tasting. It was a blast, and the best whiskey tasting I have ever been to (fully objective here 😁)!

Today's employee spotlight is Brittany Sease. Coming to us after a career as an attorney, she has been a huge asset for OMJ, and the growth we have seen since her joining! We can't say enough kind things about Brittany, read more for or recent sit down.

One of the most important parts of a custom suit is the fabric. We go deep on all things about selecting your fabric for that perfect custom suit.

In the retail world it can be an interesting thing sometimes, especially with fashion retail. Often times you are chasing two things: selling enough of your product to stay in business AND recognition and respect for what you do by the industry you are in (i.e. other fashion brands / publications etc...). I will be honest, the two don't necessarily go hand in hand, and the lines get even more blurred when you compare it on a national scale vs a regional/local scale. 

If you’ve been by the shop the past couple of weeks, you may have already met OMJ’s newest executive stylist, Cross. Cross joined us last month from Los Angeles and brings years of experience in both the fashion industry and fine suiting. While OMJ is known for great custom suiting, we also have been looking to expand further by offering a next level luxury suiting experience. Think, the finest fabric mills like Loro Piana and Zegna, made in Italy, made completely by hand and specialty fabrics (Vićuna, diamond chipped, gold stripes etc..). Our core offering will not change, and this new line won’t be for everyone, but we are thrilled to expand our capabilities and serve a broader niche. We can finally say we are truly one of the best brands doing custom suiting America!
