The Idealist

Warner Washington
University of Michigan

Retro goes back further than the 1980s; try the 1880s, for example. Warner's look is timeless, which is good because his eye is on the future. "I want to start a foundation to better the situation for Detroit's public schools," he says. "Children are our future." As his duds and words suggest, Warner is quite the old soul. His jacket ($1,895), shirt ($195) and trousers ($1,395) are by Armani Collezioni. His vest ($348) is by Emporio Armani. His belt ($145) is by Best of Class by Robert Talbott. His tie ($135) is by Giorgio Armani. Her: The dress ($129) is by Sisley. Her cap ($25) is by New York Hat & Cap Co.
