Upper Cuts Gentlemen's Grooming Place Announces Partnership With Malcolm Staples and Malcolm's Custom Made to Fit
Washington, DC, June 21, 2017 (Newswire.com) - Upper Cuts Gentlemen’s Grooming Place is excited to announce a strategic partnership with the premier bespoke custom clothier, Malcolm Staples of Malcolm’s Custom Made To Fit. The highly acclaimed tailor brings his unique custom service palette to Upper Cuts Gentlemen’s Grooming Place.
“Upper Cuts gets it, leaving no stone unturned for the client,” said Staples. “I believe that providing ultra-luxury services should be the norm and not the exception. Combining our forces trail blazes a path to an amazing bespoke experience found nowhere else. Our partnership solidifies the next step in the continuum of full-service grooming for discerning gentlemen.”
Staples will operate on an appointment only basis out of The Private Room at the Upper Cuts National Harbor and Upper Cuts downtown D.C. location. The new service amenity brings Upper Cuts’ luxury grooming options full-circle. Staples is also offering a Father’s Day discount package of a suit, shirt and tie at over 50 percent off to celebrate the launch month. The special runs the entire month of June.
“The addition of Malcolm Staples to Upper Cuts is revolutionary,” said Helen McIntosh, CEO of Upper Cuts. “Never before have all elements of luxury men’s grooming been paired in this way. Malcolm’s Custom Made To Fit stands alone as a premier bespoke clothier and is the perfect fit for The Private Room at our National Harbor location. Knowing this option is offered by their favorite place to unwind is comforting to our clients.”
Malcolm Staples lives by the old adage “do what you love and it never feels like work.” It was this inspiration that steered him to leave his corporate job to become a custom designer and entrepreneur. Heavily influenced by his grandfather, a man of style whom he describes as the best-dressed man he has ever seen, Staples is a product of the 50s fashion era attributing his very distinctive appeal to his connection to that era.
Known for perfectly tailored suits, Staples has dressed men and women globally. His clients include celebrities, media personalities, professional athletes, clergy and a host of politicians and business professionals. Notable clients include Bishop T.D. Jakes, Basketball Hall of Famer Earvin “Magic” Johnson, and Beauty and Sports icon, Jayne Kennedy. Staples’ work was featured globally during 2013 Miss Universe Pageant in Moscow, Russia on host Thomas Roberts.
In 2010, Staples launched “Malcolm’s Custom Made To Fit.” His first job was designing the custom wardrobe for several athletes in the National Football League including his nephew, LaMarr Woodley of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Staples grew to have football clients on more than seven teams and it was at this embryonic stage where Malcolm’s Custom Made To Fit was solidified.
A native of Saginaw, Michigan now residing in Washington D.C., Staples has garnered a reputation of producing upper echelon garments and an incomparable level of excellence. The self-described “details guru” leaves no stone unturned in providing the ultimate luxury custom experience.
