CHARLIE PORTER
AGE: 36
LOCATION: Work London W1, Live And Garden E2
ABOUT: Journalist who works on British GQ and GQ Style, interested in plowing a new furrow for menswear that acknowledges and celebrates its difference from women’s fashion, both in the actual design and the way that men themselves respond to it.
EXPERTISE: Underplanting as a way of life, geraniums, nasturtiums, lavender, the RHS, Peter Beales Roses, Gardener’s Question Time (Sunday repeat), the gardening section of the Saturday Telegraph, Columbia Road flower market and the books The Well Tempered Garden by the late Christopher Lloyd and The Small Garden by CE Lucas Phillips. I am intensely jealous of gardeners in California who grow walls of purple sage. Oh and it brings me great satisfaction to be a customer of B Store and Dover Street Market, to wear the clothes of Rick Owens, Bernard Willhelm and Ann Demeulemeester, and to be acquainted with Thom Browne.
