Barron Trump’s suit stylist has lifted the lid on what the “fascintating” 18-year-old is really like behind closed doors.
Ahead of his father Donald Trump’s inauguration on Monday, the president’s youngest son collaborated with Pearce Bespoke on a collection of high-end outfits to ensure he was suited and booted for the festivities.
The teenager has long been a fan of the ‘mobile custom clothing fashion bar’.
Chief executive officer Nathan Pearce was introduced to Barron by internet personality Justin Waller, who is friends with the teen and also a top client of Pearce’s, according to Women’s Wear Daily (WWD).
The celebrity outfitter had nothing but high praise for the New York University freshman who is “fascinating to talk to”.
Mr Pearce said: “He’s this super-bright kid. He’s well beyond his years in terms of experience, knowledge, history. He’s just very fascinating to talk to.
“You know what is another word I would say? Hospitable. He is down-to-earth, nice as can be and hospitable.
“I’ve thoroughly enjoyed getting to know him over the last one or two years.”
Pearce also revealed that Barron has “a dry sense of humour” with the teen being a “down to earth” guy.
He told WWD: “He’s hilarious. But as I said, he’s super-sharp. You put him in a room with star businessmen and he will hold his own.
“He can talk to them all day because he’s witty, smart and has a dry sense of humour.”
Pearce says Barron visited him in his home state of Louisiana on a solo trip, here Barron selected fabrics, buttons and even linings for his set of custom suits showcasing his eye for high end fashion.
Pearce added: “I recognise that Barron Trump could be choosing from tailors all over the world, and he chose me. I’m super-grateful and super-proud of that.”
And it seems the trip paid off as during Monday’s Inauguration Day festivities, Barron looked every bit his mother Melania’s son in a fashionable dark-coloured coat, a navy blue blazer, a white shirt, a navy blue tie and gold cufflinks.
His hair appeared to be slick-backed with an American flag pin on his lapel.
