Chris Kirubi, a renowned media mogul, has discussed his high-end fashion preferences in a past media interview with a local TV station.
Kirubi reportedly imports his suits from Italian fashion house Brioni, whose clients include former American President George W Bush. He has been a customer of Brioni for 30 years and is known to them personally.
Custom-made Suits ¶
All of Kirubi's suits are custom-made, with prices ranging from Ksh 840,000 to Ksh 2.3 million.
Kirubi has mentioned that one challenge of wearing such expensive suits is finding suitable local dry cleaners. As a result, he accumulates the suits and then sends them to London for dry cleaning.
Other Fashion Preferences ¶
In addition to suits, Kirubi also purchases his t-shirts and shirts from Brioni. The prices for these items are:
- Shirts: Ksh 260,000 to Ksh 460,000
- Polo t-shirts: Ksh 30,000 to Ksh 40,000
