We made our way across to Spitalfields yesterday, to check out some deeply fine clothes from Old Town Clothing, who specialise in classic British workwear. They're usually based in Norfolk, but every now and then they move their entire shop down to London, so that us city folk can have a browse.
The clothes are made from British cottons, woollens and linens, are made to order (though not made to measure) and all look mighty fine. As they say on their site:
"Simplicity of line, consistency of detail and durability of construction are the main considerations for our designs. We hope that they have a certain longevity of style which is non-specifically of the past, the intention being to appear chronologically neutral."
Lovely stuff.
