Suede, Leather and Corduroy

Caught in customary English weather; a true gent fashioning a pair of cord trousers and chocolate suede jacket, topped off with the quintessential derby in tan. Playful yet testing, his mix of suede, leather and corduroy is pulled together and smartened up by his shirt and tie. The overall look has a charmingly traditional feel of the English country character.

Grey and Blue and Brown

October 1, 2009 | Nathan Brown

A great example of how to work with the fundamentals.  Grey raincoat, grey tie, blue trousers, and a vivid pair of old brown Full Brogues.  Don’t be afraid to play with the basics.  The close fit of the trouser leg and the high break of the hem give it a modern feel without while still keeping the look timeless.

Matching purple with Michael Whitby-Grubb

Some serious colour matching going on here, and whatever your tastes with the shoes and scarf, mid-grey does look great with purple.
The gentleman pictured here and captured last week by our roving photographer is Michael Whitby-Grubb, who is launching a luxury shirting and accessories brand, Penrose London. The former Aquascutum international wholesale manager, Michael is starting the company with Duchamp founder Mitchell Jacobs.

The debut range for Autumn 09 is a contemporary take on vintage elegance, with only subtle branding and colour palettes and the focus on subtle but luxurious woven patterns. More pointed Milan collars and higher London collars feature as well as a button or French cuff styles.
