EP213: Style & Legacy ft. Nico Lazaro of The Bengal Stripe

In today’s episode, we sit down with Nico Lazaro stylist, brand consultant, and the writer behind The Bengal Stripe, a thoughtful newsletter that explores menswear, culture, and identity. Nico shares the story of how his love for clothing started, rooted deeply in the influence of his grandfather, whose style and presence left a lasting impression. But the conversation doesn’t stop at personal history. We also unpack Nico’s professional journey how he approaches working with brands, what draws him to certain aesthetics, and the key things to think about when building or growing a brand today. Whether you're a designer, entrepreneur, creative, or just someone who appreciates good style, there’s something in this episode for you.

It’s a rich and layered conversation that weaves together heritage, storytelling, brand strategy, and what it means to build something authentic in today’s landscape.
