Get comfortable with bespoke casualwear
It’s summer, and in Australia we’re free to roam, socialise and live life once again. And what better way to do it than in comfortable bespoke luxury?
Think about it this way. We like to invest in luxury for special occasions. But after the times we’ve been having, doesn’t every day out feel like a special occasion? How you feel in your clothes every day is the very definition of luxury.
Our bespoke craftsmanship is all about creating individual garments for one person and one person only. And this summer is all about bespoke casualwear: luxurious and one-of-a-kind.
But before we introduce you to some equally stylish and comfortable options, let’s address the elephant in the room: bespoke casualwear?
It’s true, bespoke tailoring has come to be synonymous with suits and tuxedos, but it’s always been much more than that. In the olden days, bespoke casualwear, whether you went for a hunt, a game of tennis, or a safari, was what gentlemen wore. Garments that fitted their bodies, their personalities and their activities of choice to perfection.
Come this way, we have some great bespoke luxury ideas for you this summer.
The polo shirt
First up, the bespoke polo shirt. Nothing says I’m winning at being relaxed like a polo shirt. We make ours from Japanese cotton pique or jersey from Loro. There is no floppy collar with our bespoke shirts, because we use a higher stand collar, just like we would for a regular bespoke shirt. So when you throw a bespoke jacket over your polo, the whole ensemble will stand the test of crisp elegance.
The drawstring trousers
Let’s be honest, over the last year or so, we’ve probably all worn our fair share of tracksuit pants. They’re comfortable and, but not exactly elegant; great for Netflix marathons and take away dinner at home, but they’re never going to work with being out and about.
But they're so comfortable...Don’t worry, we heard you, and we’ve designed the incredibly comfortable drawstring linen trousers, with deep pockets to remind you of your beloved tracksuit pants, but with the elegance only a bespoke garment can pull off. With a pair of these, you’re going to slip right into the post-lockdown lifestyle. There’s no better choice than linen for these trousers. Go with the creases.
The pop-over shirt
Not quite a shirt, but not a pullover either, the pop-over shirt is probably not something you’ve seen before. Roll the sleeves, leave the two top buttons open, and you’ll be a breath of fresh air in any situation. Linen is the fabric of choice again for this one, because there's no other fabric that looks as good when it’s creased, no fabric as suitable for summer breeze and heat tan linen. And don’t you agree that linen creases have a whole monologue of their own. They say: I am comfortable with who I am, I am having a good time, life is good. Join me.
The unstructured jacket
Word on the style street is that you simply can’t do summer without one of these in your wardrobe. Unstructured bespoke jackets, all comfort and style, are a summer staple in our wardrobes. For cooler days or occasions that require a jacket, there’s no better option than an elegant unstructured jacket. That means you get all the superior craftsmanship of a bespoke jacket, with minimal canvas or lining, so you look elegant, yet casual, and best of all, you're comfortable over the warmer months.
So there you go, four great garment types to take your wardrobe out of lockdown and into socialite again.
These are only a few suggestions. The world of bespoke is your oyster when it comes to casualwear. With incredible craftsmen guiding you, you’ll be able to give your wardrobe the post-Covid lift that it desperately needs.
Go ahead and book an appointment now, so you can spend the rest of your summer in clothes that suit your body and your lifestyle now, and make you feel good.
