HAL LANSKY, owner of Lansky Bros. in Memphis, talks about family, fashion, and ELVIS with us!

Hal Lansky, the current owner of the ICONIC “Clothier to the King” store Lanksy Brothers, talks with us! What an absolute honor! Hal is the son of Bernard Lansky, who dressed Elvis throughout his career and showed the world how fashionable Memphis could be! The ‘Lansky Look’ helped Elvis grow into the superstar he eventually became, and SO many of Elvis’s iconic outfits are from Lanksy’s.
Hal tells us stories about growing up at the store with his dad, what it was like to be the delivery boy taking Elvis’s clothing orders to Graceland, and some other cool moments with celebrities even to this day. So cool and special!
“Bernard Lansky held the honor of being Elvis Presley's preferred tailor after meeting the singer, pre-fame, outside of the store during the summer of 1952. These days, Hal Lansky is the second-generation owner of Lansky Bros. at The Peabody. The way Hal Lansky tells it, his father developed a friendship with "the greatest entertainer of all time." - Lanksy Bros. website
Today, the Lanksy Brothers clothing store is located in the lobby of the Peabody Hotel but you can still walk by its original location on Beale Street. Hal runs the store with his daughter, Julie.
Hal - THANK YOU THANK YOU for your time with us! We are so grateful! Cannot wait to see you in Memphis soon!!
