Dave Welch founded b.spoke in Costa Mesa with the idea that dressing well is all about collaboration. Welch and his team, who work with men from all industries, concentrate more on individual style rather than buying into trends. His clients range from jet-setting pro athletes to tie-averse tech company CEOs to dapper businessmen. “I have one guy who told me, ‘I never want to wear a tie ever again.’ So we created a wardrobe based off of that one desire,” says Welch. :: bspokestyle.com

“Fewer men wear ties these days,” says b.spoke Chief Visionary Officer Dave Welch. “Now they show off personality and a pop of color with socks and pocket squares.” Alexander McQueen’s skull socks ($80) and Tom Ford’s floating-circle-print pocket square ($175) offer a touch of pizazz without stealing the show. Available at Neiman Marcus, Fashion Island. :: neimanmarcus.com
