Love the increasing emphasis on English style and culture. The whole preppy business can get pretty tiresome (with apologies). How about a feature on Jermyn Street shirts for men?
ReplyDelete"The whole preppy business" is securely rooted in Anglophilia and in English traditions in the first place.
DeleteUp to a point, Lord Copper.
Delete"Rooted" means "starting point," which is sort of self-explanatory.
DeleteDefinitely, Lord Copper.
DeleteIf you want a British-made shirt from Jermyn Street, your choice is now limited to Budd (made in Sussex), Emma Willis (in Gloucester), Turnbull & Asser (in Gloucestershire) and the garish Grosvenor (in Northern Ireland). There are now more British shoemakers than shirtmakers in Jermyn Street. The foreign made brands (e.g. Thomas Pink, TM Lewin, Hawes & Curtis) are still there but best avoided.
DeleteJust received a couple pair of corduroys that I purchased at Cordings’s fall trouser sale. Beautiful quality, nice thick corduroy, and deeply saturated colors.
ReplyDeleteSartre, you once said "Clothing makes the Man". How true.
DeleteI wear Cordings therefore I am. I took advantage of the trouser offer too. :)
DeleteLooks lovely on you! I especially like photo #1.
ReplyDeleteAnother beautiful bird plate! The shirt is lovely, too.
ReplyDeleteNice whimsey!
ReplyDeleteI've see that shirt on their website, I really like it. I also love those beautiful dishes! --Holly in PA
