Brad Habansky, co-owner of Guise I Chic, is the epitome of a modern-day man who exemplifies great athleticism and timeless style. Growing up in Muncie, IN, Brad did not initially realize he was destined to be the forerunner of Chicago fashion as he is today. Upon graduating from the University of Dayton with a degree in Finance, Brad worked in the technology industry for 10 years. Realizing that a future in the tech field was not for him, Brad opted to open Guise in 2005 and fill a niche in the marketplace that would soon become a must-stop shop for men.
In 2008, Brad opened a 3800 sq ft store- a one-of-a-kind endeavor, with equal space devoted to apparel and accessories for men and women - and salons for both sexes. Guise I Chic is devoted to everything current and new, blending style and street chic. Whether choosing an entire ensemble, stopping for a quick trim, or in the market for a head-to-toe makeover, Guise I Chic can meet any need. Guise I Chic is a style refuge for both men and women, a place that seamlessly blends modernity and innovation with a welcoming and inviting atmosphere.

The first thing I notice about a woman is…
her overall style, then her skin and of course, her ass.
My favorite place to shop is …
Guise, of course, but if I go anywhere else it is Jil Sander.
I am always searching for …
cool outerwear. Living in Chicago , it is hard to find cool and warm outerwear -- plus you have to wear it 8 months out of the year.
The first thing I do when I wake up is...
try to fool around with my girlfriend. If that doesn't work, I hit the snooze button.
The last thing I do before bed is ...
put on the Sabon foot cream. I know it's a little weird, but I hate the feel of the sheets on dry feet.
I could never live without …
my Tom Ford sunglasses.

I could easily live without …
baseball hats on backwards, like (Dallas Cowboy quarterback) Tony Romo … although, he got Jessica Simpson.
I will splurge on…
watches. I just got a vintage-looking Hamilton and a Mount Blanc that I love.
I won't spend more than $10 on…
a drink.

Hall and Oates.

according to my girlfriend, cigarettes and alcohol.

I would be point guard for the Chicago Bulls.

a facial … best at … Blue Mercury by Betsy.
