• Frank Coat- Black Cotton Drill Drop Shoulder Coat

    £690.00

    The black cotton drill that is used to make this Frank coat is substantial, tough and very hard wearing. The characteristic diagonal lines that run through the fabric give it a light texture on a minimalist design. Cotton drills have been historically used for clothing that took abuse, most prominently older military pieces and workwear.

    This lining is a 100% Viscose Military Twill, an extremely strong and durable lining seen in modern military uniform including the Queen’s Guards. It is made by the 65 year old British lining company, Bernstein & Banleys.

    We offset the black cotton drill with black lip mother of pearl buttons. Taken from the troca shell, these dark buttons occasionally catch the light and harmoniously reflect the cloth they sit on.

    The heavy drill of this coat is offset by the flowing lines of its unstructured style. Instead of a shoulder seam holding an inset sleeve, panels extending from the neck seam make up the sleeve creating a smooth shoulder that follows the body, much like a raglan sleeve. One large pleated pocket sits on the wearer's right hand side acting like an over sized storm pocket. Only the sharp collar remains to remind us of tailored structure giving the coat an injection of formality.

  • Remi Coat- Stone Panama Cotton Coat

    £490.00

    The fabric we chose for this Remi coat is an oatmeal or stone coloured panama cotton. This cloth is very durable and is typically used for creations that need to withstand heavy wear. The tight weave and sturdy construction belie the softness obtained by regular use.

    The lining is a 50/50 viscose cupro twill; a high-quality and robust choice from Bernstein & Banleys, a British lining company founded in 1953.

    We offset the stone panama cotton with black lip mother of pearl buttons. Taken from the troca shell, these dark buttons occasionally catch the light and harmoniously reflect the cloth they sit on.

    This coat is all about ultimate function and simplicity. Fastening high on the neck with an antique brass clasp and in panama cotton it is a seasonless coat suitable for most of the year except high Summer and the coldest Winter days. It is lightweight with the colour particularly suiting Spring and Autumnal outfits. The front pockets are storm pockets where a pocket welt overlaps the natural direction of entry keeping contents and your hands drier and out of the elements. The coat would be better suited to less formal occasions due to the visible weave and the non-traditional colour. But, it would most certainly suit less formal tailoring particularly because of the sharp collar and the inset sleeve.

  • Remi Raincoat- Navy Cotton Gabardine Raincoat

    £490.00

    We chose a navy cotton gabardine for this simple raincoat. Gabardine was created as an alternative to the heavy woollen overcoats worn in WWI trenches because it is lightweight, strong, shower proof opposed to the wool coats that would get waterlogged. Gabardine cottons went from being used in war to being used in early sport's clothing, especially fishing as a fishing hook would never get caught in a gabardine cotton jacket unlike its woolen predecessor where it would snag on the loose fibres

    The lining is a 50/50 viscose cupro twill; a high-quality and robust choice from Bernstein & Banleys, a British lining company founded in 1953.

    We offset the navy cotton gabardine with black lip mother of pearl buttons. Taken from the troca shell, these dark buttons occasionally catch the light and harmoniously reflect the cloth they sit on.

    This coat is all about ultimate function and simplicity. Fastening high on the neck with an antique brass clasp and in cotton gabardine it acts as all year-round protection from light showers and moderate winds. It's light enough to be worn over a t-shirt in warmer temperatures but tough enough to guard you in colder climates. The front pockets are storm pockets where a pocket welt overlaps the natural direction of entry keeping contents and your hands drier and out of the elements. Its sharp cut and softly tailored structure enables it to transition from shielding a suit to accompanying denim and trainers.

  • Caplin Jacket- Hand-Quilted Stone-Green Cotton Jacket

    £890.00

    The fabric used on this Caplin jacket is unique to Jenny Schwarz. The 100% stone green cotton comes to us as any other fabric would. Before cutting the true pattern pieces we quilt over-sized versions using an in-house technique. Once quilted, the true pattern is cut and assembled as usual.

    The lining is a 50/50 viscose cupro twill; a high-quality and robust choice from Bernstein & Banleys, a British lining company founded in 1953.

    We offset the quilted cotton with black lip mother of pearl buttons. Taken from the troca shell, these dark buttons occasionally catch the light and harmoniously reflect the cloth they sit on.

    This Caplin jacket is a balancing act. We pick elements of formality from Dinner Jackets like the lack of vents and the shawl collar but construct them in unfamiliar cotton. Where wool would flow and drape with minimal creasing the cotton performs differently displaying its movement. As a counter balance the quilting gives a soft but rigid structure. The black lip mother of pearl buttons reflect the stone green of the cloth balancing a material often used in work wear.
