Our Story
Since 2013, Sharpe Suiting has been helping brave individuals showcase exactly who they are. We know being yourself isn’t easy, so we’ve streamlined a process to help you feel like you.
Our trademarked formula “Andropometrics” is used to design a look that will not only fit you but also match your unique style and identity.
Our design consultations began with friends, and through word of mouth, our queer-owned company grew to become a premiere suiting label in Hollywood. Sharpe Suiting has since been featured in Huffington Post, LA Times, Forbes.com, VICE, Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Vanity Fair, Teen Vogue, BuzzFeed, and Fashionista. Our designs finessed NY and LA Fashion Week catwalks and have made appearances on red carpets at the Oscars, Emmys, and Cannes Film Festival. Through our successes and continued passion to serve the community who initially inspired us, we’ve been able to donate hundreds of suits to LGBTQ youth centers, non-profit fundraisers, colleges, and queer prom students across the country.
We are continually expanding to new cities, always evolving, always learning. Just like you. We’ve had the privilege and honor to see our clients elevate in all aspects of their lives through our bespoke experience. From picking individual buttons to finding the perfect blazer, we want everything to feel like you.
You on your wedding day, you at work, or you just having fun.
At Sharpe, We Fit You.
Our Stylists
Korrigan Burton (They/Them) – CHICAGO, IL
I'm a vibrant, ambitious, sleepy genderqueer human working on making the world a better place one stitch at a time. I strongly believe it is everyone's right to feel good in their bodies and feeling good in your clothing is a big step towards that. Working for Sharpe has given me a chance to make so many people's suit dreams come true.
Nikki Eason (She/Her) – CHARLOTTE, NC
I am a confident, innovative, spiritual, androgynous woman here to inspire, motivate and empower others through confidence and fashion. I believe you were born to be you and you should never be afraid to stand in the truth of who you are. I am a social entrepreneur who creates platforms that promote change, self-love and awareness for all.
Tony Soto (He/Him) – LOS ANGELES, CA
Sharpe is important because we promote visual activism, help clients project how they want to present themselves to the world and although 'we fit you' is our motto because we are make gender-neutral suiting for anyone, we are inspired by the LGBTQI community and we were born out of meeting the needs of that community first and foremost. We at Sharpe are doing our part in the world to promote self-love and acceptance because nothing looks better on anyone than confidence and visibility.
Mindy Friedman (They/She) - ATLANTA, GA
I believe in living my life out loud with passion, compassion, flair, and an open heart and mind. My gender expression is masculine of center/gender non-conforming and is both authentic and purposeful. As a Visual Activist I dress in a manner that inspires me and stirs onlookers to engage in dialogue in order to drive visibility, awareness and social change. My message of love, protection, unity, and equality is intersectional by nature and action. #TheRevolutionIsDapper #StaySharpe
Kathleen (K.) Short (She/Her) – SAN DIEGO, CA
As a playful and timeless tomboi with a smaller stature, it's an adventure finding clothes that fit you. I've realized that we shouldn't have to fit the clothes, but that they should fit us! I'm delighted to be your helper and guide to navigate the creation of your next favorite article of clothing. So much so that you find any reason to wear it over and over again. Let it be date night, your wedding day, work or play, your unique design will be a reflection of who you are and how you move through the world. I believe we're the ones we've been waiting for, so let's look Sharpe while enjoying our precious moments or pursuing our greatest endeavors.
Damien Willis (He/Him) – SEATTLE, WA
I am the kind of person who likes to try everything once. When I put on a suit for the first time, exploring my gender and sexual identity, I felt euphoric—confident and classy! Now, it is my goal to help everyone else feel comfortable and confident in their skin, no matter the context. My fashion experiences have led me to Sharpe, which strives for the very same goal: to help you show more of yourself!
Kaparah Simmons (He/Him) – PORTLAND, OR
I have always been driven to dress for success. I’m a firm believer that how you look on the outside is a reflection of how you feel internally. Not only did key family members serve as fashion influences, but also artists such as Joan Crawford, Dorothy Dandridge, The Supremes and Leon Andre Talley have been instrumental in terms of my perspective on fashion, style and glamour. As a gay man of color, my intention is to create a unique experience for my clients that not only makes them feel beautiful externally, but reflects who they are on the inside. After spending 15 years in corporate America at Fortune 100 companies and earning both a B.A. in Communications and EMBA in Business Administration, I have finally found my heart's desire in styling and I feel so fortunate to partner with Sharpe Suiting to provide superior styling services to our clients.Featured On
