| Hugh is my favourite person to have photographed, not only for his impeccable style, but for his friendly and charming character. As talkative as he was dapper, we had a conversation on the street corner for more than twenty minutes, from which I learnt that he is a Park Ranger in Croydon, studied biochemistry at university, understands Latin, and (unsurprisingly) values the importance of face-to-face conversation. |

| He wears a Burberry coat, Ben Sherman suit, waistcoat
from Paris, shoes from Foster & Son, shirt from Emma Willis (with collar by Budd), Churchill classic bow tie from Turnbull & Asser, and hat from Bates. He could not tell me where his umbrella originated, however did suggest the best shop for quality umbrellas is 'James Smith & Son' on New Oxford Street. A fashionable and most interesting gentleman; it was a true pleasure to have made his acquaintance one sunny afternoon in London. |
