Puffery

Step into the world where fashion meets ritual. In this episode of Puffery, we unpack the Met Gala as a stage for bespoke values, explore cigars as statement accessories, and examine the role of tobacco in a post-smoking era. We explore the parallels between bespoke suits and hand-rolled cigars—products of meticulous craftsmanship, each telling a personal story, shaped by skilled artisans. By embracing this perspective, the Met Gala highlighted the symbolic power of cigars as artifacts of culture, rebellion, and ritual.
