The Collection

The collection.... where do I start? The collection is mainly menswear but ladieswear is available and as the seasons go on more pieces will be available.  It consists of well tailored suits,waistcoats, shirts, lots of separates and all made to the highest quality.

Looking at the pieces and trying them on, the comfort and fit speaks for itself and explains why celebrities love Emmy's designs.  Talking to Emmy he explains that he has mainly two kind of customers, the first one is much like myself cool looking and buys subtle pieces for quality and cut.  The second is the flamboyant one, who loves clothes and loves playing with colour.

"My Demographic is unique any man of any age can wear the collection" Emmy Collins.

Walking around the showroom you see this and more, the flawless tailoring, shirts with the most amazing colour palettes, ties and bow ties in prints that would make any man feel dandy.

The Emmy Collins collection to me is for men who want to make a statement, quintessentially British with an edge! but there are parts that say "Hey I've arrived"....  Emmy Collins you've arrived!!

Great collection can't say that enough, my personal favourite pieces are the Gingham shirt and the tuxedo pants (both pictured).

Double thumbs up from the Clotheshorse!

I recommend you check out the full collection at Emmy Collins
