Ep. 185 - Hugh Mo (Artifact New York)

Hugh Mo is the co-founder of Artifact New York, a fashion business renting historical designer fashion pieces to photo shoots, movies and celebrities, including many musicians. With operations situated in NYC and Los Angeles, they are the go-to house for this kind of service as also featured in their early days in none other than Vogue.I met Hugh through the watch scene in New York, and he’s someone with whom I’ve exchanged many a DM’s whether it be about watches, travel, and certainly restaurants. I guess this conversation is best summarized as being more along the lines of a peek into our dialogue. A long-form DM that’s on the record, if you will.Hugh has owned (and owns) some of my favorite watches on the planet, and I’m always stoked to chat fashion with someone who really knows their stuff. Hugh’s knowledge of fashion is funny for me as someone 10+ years his senior since he now knows more about these older pieces than I do, and I was reading about them in GQ & Esquire when he was still in grade school.A man of taste, and one hell of a growing business, please enjoy my conversation with Hugh Mo.
