In 1939 when Martin was 10 years old he started to notice a discrimination between people. That's when things started to go downhill for his and his immediate family members. Once his and his family were all liberated to Auschwitz, his two sisters, baby brother and grandparents were immediately sent to the gas chamber. Martin's mother was sent to go with Martin and his father to work but she couldn't let go over her baby boy. Therefore she was sent to the gas chamber with the rest of her family leaving Martin and his father left behind. With Martin and his father being the only ones left, Martin's father thought they had a better chance of survival if they were to separate, so that's what they did. Once they separated, a week before Martin was liberated, his father had died. At the age of fifteen Martin was working in a concentration camp. Of the time being there Martin learned the power behind clothing. He was beaten for accidentally ripping a Nazis shirt. After getting beaten by the Nazi he later had stolen the shirt that he had accidentally tore. Martin’s first tailoring session started with the shirt that he repaired. Once it was repaired he wore it under his uniform all throughout his time working at concentration camps. Wearing the shirt made him realize that clothes possess power, this became an inspiration to Martin and helped him survive the Holocaust. This experience was a contributing factor to how he became one of the most successful and famous men’s tailors of America.
