For Autumn Winter 2010 famed Savile Row tailor Gieves & Hawkes offers a modern interpretation of a variety of retro looks.
Based upon a dark colour palette especially purple, standout pieces include simplified tuxedo jackets as well as coats and jackets inspired by military uniforms.
Meanwhile the military coat, a signature of the brand, highlights the waist and is made from a variety of high-quality fabrics such as ultra fine camel hair and Scotland cashmere.
Frederik Willems, Head of Design said: “The silhouette of the jackets and suits has a strong shoulder, balanced by an elegant waist line and a slightly longer body length to reflect the mood of the early Eighties; Britain’s golden age for the creation of new music, fresh art…and new traditionalism.”
