Who is Tony Mac?

 

I always get the question who is Tony Mac? If you are Alex, where is Tony? Well Tony is in all of us. Tony is the feeling you get when putting a clean outfit on before going to your special event. Feeling the confidence of knowing you have a flawless fit. 
This all started when I was a consultant at the Men's Wearhouse and some co- workers and I starting acting like the cast from Goodfellas. 

GoodFellas

We had Johnny Farfalle, Ronny Manicotti, Tommy Ravioli, and me Tony Macaroni. This name stuck ever since, after a couple weeks I made business cards and my customers remembered the name better than Alex. Tony Macaroni just has a nice ring to it. Over time I also realized the term "Macaroni"  was used to describe a fashionable fellow of mid-18th-century England. Stereotypically, men in the macaroni subculture dressed, spoke, and behaved in androgynously manner

Macaroni

 

For men Macaroni is a term of being yourself and embracing the uniqueness. Whether it be you're a louder gentlemen, and want bold colors in your outfit and unique patterns. Or conservative and want more subtle tones and patterns. These elements will go a far way in your outfits and will make you not only look better, but feel better and when you feel better, you'll do better. 
 
I really hope this has helped you see my journey into this profession. And help you understand why i chose to keep this name over the years. Tony Macaroni is not just me but you also. And it is within us when we try our best, and be ourselves. 
Be you
