Baruc Corazón

His redesign of the classic oxford shirt—pulling off the collar, hiding the buttons, and playing with cuff links, shapes, and sizes—has quickly brought Baruc Corazón fashion-industry fame, and his boutique, opened in spring 2008, is already a hub. But Corazón isn’t just about shirts. His heavy cotton blazer goes from the street to dinner with the king, and his silk kurta, an update of the long, pocketed Indian-style shirtdress, could easily be wedding attire or beach cover-up. His lineage is also impressive: his father is modern artist Alberto Corazón.
