WHY HE MATTERS For the press tour of The Apprentice, Stan and Fisher steered clear of his onscreen persona’s power-shouldered suits in favor of such modern interpretations as shrunken Thom Browne and smartly tailored Prada suits and Dolce & Gabbana pinstripes. “Michael’s a movie buff. He watches the films and has a point of view. He’s conscious of who he’s working with: the person’s tastes, characteristics, what kind of actor they are. He’s sensitive to the themes being promoted,” says Stan of Fisher, with whom he first teamed in 2018.

TOP LOOK Fisher is partial to the contrasting piped black Prada mohair coat and trousers that the Different Man Golden Globe winner wore to the ceremony. “Custom looks are always stressful because you don’t really know how it will turn out or how your talent will feel once they try it on,” says Fisher, who has a history with the luxury Italian house. “Instinct told me that the final result would be perfect for the win.” Adds Stan: “There was something timeless and old Hollywood about it that I loved. … I also think I probably always love everything that’s in black. If it was up to me, I would always just be dressing in black.”

“I sought him out,” says Stan (right) of Fisher. “I really loved that at the time he was working with some of my favorite actors, like Michael Shannon, Ethan Hawke and Adam Driver. It seemed that everything on those guys was effortless and felt connected to who they were and their personalities.” Adds Fisher, “Sebastian’s passion, generosity and sense of adventure always make my job easy.”
