He has incredible taste and tone—and he’s a friend.”\u003cbr\u003e“What makes Mark’s vision work is that he is, at his core, classic. He understands the rules, protocol, and tradition. Then he turns it all on its ear. That, for me, is the hallmark of a genius.”\u003cbr\u003e“I’ve long admired Mark for his subversive take on preppy.
