Gerard doesn’t just pick a handkerchief… he curates the moment. Color, fold, texture, attitude… all dialed in.

Moral of the story: the outfit isn’t complete without the detail that makes people look twice.

If you don’t know what you’re doing with a pocket square… good. Go see Gerard.

My hot take on performance polos ☠️

Don’t get me wrong-we all love a well dressed man on the golf course…but those polos aren’t supposed to be worn all the time.

Avant has a huge selection of outfits that belong on the course BUT there are certain events that you should be reconsidering that highlighter yellow shiny polo. Avant is here to help you elevate their versatile & colorful polos to fit every occasion with fun combinations, high quality fabrics and accessories.

When the world’s best bartender gets ready for Hollywood’s biggest night, the fit has to be just as sharp as the cocktails.

On March 15, Global Bartender Champion and renowned mixologist Charles Joly will step onto the red carpet wearing a custom Avant jacket designed specifically for the occasion.

The Avant team worked closely with Charles, guiding every detail from fabric and style to fit and function, creating a one-of-a-kind bespoke jacket built for shaking his curated cocktails crafted just for this award show. The result is a timeless piece that will live in his wardrobe for years to come.

Because having your own signature style is just as important as having a signature drink.

Let Avant help you create a custom jacket that’s uniquely yours.

Spring forward Sunday!
Longer days, a little more sun, and the perfect excuse to refresh your wardrobe.

Chicago’s “false spring” season is officially here. One day it’s 65°, the next it’s coat weather again. That’s where smart, versatile pieces make all the difference.

At Avant for Men, we focus on styles that move with the season. Lightweight layers, polished essentials, and pieces that work now and carry you straight into summer.

Refresh your look with clothing that fits your life.

Stop in and shop in-store to find the pieces that work for you.

Let’s clear something up.

There is a time and a place for the blue shirt.
Court date. Jury duty. Maybe a half day in the office.

But your engagement party?
Your best friend’s wedding?
A date night?
The promotion you’ve been chasing for three years?

That’s not “default settings” territory.

Most of the time, you should be doing something else. Texture. Pattern. A subtle clash that works because it’s intentional. Pattern on pattern if you’re ready to graduate from safe to sharp.

You are not wallpaper. Stop dressing like it.

The guys at Avant will help you layer your life properly. Jackets that frame you. Shirts with personality. Combinations that make people look twice in a good way.

Keep the blue shirt in rotation.
Just don’t let it run your whole life.
