Eli Russell Linnetz is the sort of person you would love to hate were he not so talented, hardworking, and kind. A multi-hyphenate visual artist, stage designer, photographer, and director, Linnetz began working on his own label, ERL, at the encouragement of Dover Street Market’s Adrian Joffe and Ronnie Cooke Newhouse. Now in its third full season, the collection has expanded; it includes ERL takes on everything from swimwear and long-johns (quickly becoming the It Item of the men’s season) to
Behind the Candelabra tuxedos and silver puffer pants. The big takeaway: There’s nothing Linnetz can’t do.
