Witty and self-deprecating, Boris Ejsymont, the Swede badass
with an underlying charm, represents a perfect mix between indisputable
Scandinavian elegance and impeccable Italian style.
He describes his personal style as “timeless
classic with a mix of Patrick Bateman and Tony Montana.”

Yes, Ejsymont always seems to get the details just right
from his sharply tailored gray suits to his navy blazers, paired with his icy
glaze, perfect for sealing the deal. He’s definitely not your typical Tom,
Dick, and Harry. “It is all about work which includes a
lot of travelling, a strict exercise routine along with a balanced diet and of
course, making time for my girlfriend, friends and family,” he added.
Here, he shares with me how having a great eye, a handsome
pair of black suede loafers and personal flair can strike you more than just a
high fives and a free bottle of champagne.
Who
inspires your personal style? Definitely my father who I look up to the
most. Growing up, spending countless summers in Italy and travelling the world the
past 8 years did put it marks on my style without a doubt.
Yay
or Nay? The right color combinations, attention to details, always have
your shirts perfectly crisp and your shoes polished always top my list of Yays!
And thumbs down to big monograms and tacky designs.
Growing
up in Stockholm, Sweden and having lived all over Switzerland, Miami, Dubai and
Manila, how has your style evolved? I basically live out of my suitcase. It
is normal that one would pick up likes and dislikes from each location when it
comes to fashion and trends. Honestly, I always had a liking for “tailored to
perfection” Wall street swank, understated Ivy League and the simplicity of Scandinavian design. I believe I started
building my wardrobe way back in Stockholm at 16. Boarding school in
Switzerland made me appreciate suits, shirts and ties as it was our daily wear.
