Meet Our Team
Lan Barrett, Owner
Lan grew up watching his father run Simon’s Formal Wear. After college, he managed operations under his father and then bought the business outright. Since then, he’s put his own spin on things, most recently including the new building off of Riverwatch Parkway.
Lan and his wife Crissy have three children who like to visit the shop. They play in the backroom and hide in the aisles of clothes, just like Lan did when he was a child.

Notice Regarding COVID-19: We want to confirm our procedures that are always in place for the safety of our customers.
We take great care to always ensure the sanitation and safety of our products and services for both our clients and our staff, and practice the following precautions:
First, all rented clothing items are professionally dry cleaned. It is our policy (and it is required by law) that any clothing that is worn, tried on, on rented must be dry cleaned before it can be used again. The high heat used in this process kills any germs, bacteria, or viruses that are on the clothes.
Second, due to the fact that we handle worn clothing, our staff wears rubber gloves to reduce contact with any germs, bacteria, or viruses present on these clothes and also reduce any transmission of germs they may have.
Third, we use disinfectant spray on both the inside and outside of shoes every time they are worn or tried on.
Fourth, we use disinfectant throughout day on all high-touch surfaces in the retail space of our store and in our back room.
Fifth, Employees must be fever-free for 48 hours without the use of fever-reducing medication before they can return to work after an illness.
Please know that we are committed to a safe and sanitary work space for our employees and our customers. These policies have always been in place due to our high standards. We are going above and beyond our standard protocol due to the pandemic and are happy to discuss any questions you might have.
