FALL WINTER TAILORING

For  fall nothing beats a tailored suit and we are conditioned that suits should be grey, black or navy especially in the work place but try and be a bit bolder with patterned suits checks such as the window pane for the office...

Ben Sherman Spring Summer 2019 #LFWM

Absolutely love the brand as I used to do their tailoring, made to measure and VIP styling and it's interesting what they are doing now with Henry Holland and if I'm honest he is bringing a new lease of fresh air but there's no tailoring which the following of Ben Sherman like ie the three button suits and two tone etc .... another aspect is are the new styles generating sales? being an insider with the brand I have heard things but this is the second year with Henry so let's be fair and give it time ......



nice collection though very wearable and as always they will do key pieces such as T shirts, polos, jeans and chinos which are the big sellers .... lets hope the seasonal pieces eventually catch on!

Ben Sherman AW 14 campaign - The Original Button Up Since 1963

Buttoning up the top button of your shirt is something that’s been done to Ben Sherman shirts since 1963. It is a deliberate style choice that exudes ‘Britishness’ and personal pride. It’s the final touch that finishes the look.
