In this week’s episode of The Chazz Palminteri Show, I’m joined once again by my good friend and legendary menswear designer Joseph Abboud — one of the most influential figures in American fashion. Together, we explore the timeless style and symbolism of the black leather jacket — how it became an icon of rebellion, confidence, and classic cool.

We talk about:

The evolution of men’s fashion and how the leather jacket became a cultural statement 🧥

Why dressing well still matters and what today’s trends say about society

How fashion connects to storytelling, character, and identity — both on and off screen

Our shared love for craftsmanship, tradition, and confidence through presentation

Whether you’re passionate about fashion, film, or life lessons, this episode is full of insight, nostalgia, and humor from two men who have lived through the art of expression.
