London Collections: Men – Turnbull & Asser S/S 2015 presentation

Turnbull & Asser are the eternal givers of class with a twist. Wide ties and double-breasted blazers, these guys have been nailing it to the wall since 1885, and their S/S 2015 collection, recently unveiled at London Collections: Men, is no exception.

The eccentric Brit look is one that will never go out of fashion, yet one that is difficult to achieve. There are only so many pairs of mustard coloured corduroys one can handle. Turnbull & Asser’s latest is brimming with luxurious fabrics, careful colour co-ordinations and, of course, an abundance of  perfect pocket squares.

Turnbull & Asser have also announced the opening of their new headquarters in Mayfair, London, so anyone can stroll in and soak up four glorious floors of perfect tailoring and mahogany, from lounge wear to full blown three-piece suits. All, it must be said, with truly bold and beautiful linings.

Silks, velvets and heaven’s knows what other tasty fabrics have been sourced for the new collection, so it’s definitely worth checking out despite the price tag. There’s nothing quite as satisfying as impeccable men’s tailoring with just a dash of the bizarre, especially when it is so perfectly executed.
