The Dapper Villains Podcast episodes
- Thomas Benjamin Wild Esq
What do you get when you blend vintage menswear, an amazing beard, brilliant lyrics, and some sweet banjolele strumming? The performer known as Thomas Benjamin Wild Esq.
In this episode, we dive into the backstory of Thomas and his character and explore the worlds he transitions between and the role that vintage menswear has played along the way.
Thomas has taken a great deal of inspiration from a British genre of music known as Chap Hop, melded it with his own love of vintage menswear style and the sweet stylings of the banjolele all to come up with some very clever and enjoyable music.

1 hr 33 min - Peak Vs Notch Lapel
Peak Vs Notch lapel, that is a conversation many of us have had with each other and even more of us have had internally. When you have you have your first suit made it might even be a question that comes up with your tailor. If you don't know the answer beforehand you are taking a crapshoot on your style.
It just so happens that dana is strongly in the notch lapel camp and Jai is firmly planted in the peak lapel camp. Of course, the two of them wear both lapels at different times but they are 90% in one camp of peak vs notch lapels.
The notch lapel, which can also be called a step lapel or step collar is much more of a classic look, especially in American tailoring, it creates a clear notched appearance in the lapel. It is widely considered to be a much more casual lapel than peak or shawl which is why it's almost always the standard on a single-breasted suit. and can on rare occasions be seen on a double-breasted suit.
The peak lapel, also referred to as the peaked lapel and pointed lapel is a far more formal variant of a suit and is the default for a double-breasted jacket and even a single-breasted tuxedo. When a single-breasted jacket is fitted with a peak lapel it's considered to be a more formal jacket.

1 hr 30 min - The Art of Menswear: Sunflowerman
In the world of menswear, the focus is often on the designer, the tailor, the cutter, but very rarely do we think about it from the view of an artist, today that is what we do when we talk with renowned menswear artist Matt Miller aka Sunflowerman. He grew up in Michigan and from an early age was drawn to art. This attraction led him to art school, but the constraints of art school did not sit well with him and he soon parted ways with institutional education to strike out on his own path.
It was that path that fueled his passion for capturing a new perspective of menswear. And it wouldn't take long before his perspective of menswear, men's style and accessories would find an audience in the more sartorial world. That audience has lead to him being commissioned by major brands and publications to help them express and artistic vision of their work.
Sunflowerman has also produced a series of books, which are linked below.

1 hr 14 min - Justin Hunte on Hip Hop and Menswear
In this episode, we talk with hip hop journalist and former editor in chief of Hip Hop DX Justine Hunte. Justin has been telling the story of life through the lens of hip hop for years, but oddly enough journalism wasn't his first career, Justin began his career in the world of finance and wore a suit to work every single day.
Though he left the suit and tie behind when he crossed the rubicon to hip hop journalism, he has always taken notice of the way style and fashion interweave with the art and culture of hip hop. From JayZ and Puffy with their sartorial menswear approach, Black Thought and Kendrick Lamar with their effortless style, or A$AP Rocky and Future with their more fashion-forward wears, even Jidenna with his sartorial elegance, menswear and hip-hop are tied at the hip.
Justin takes the time to dive in with us and explore how the two worlds come together.
