Men's fashion & style
Finally this shirt
is back in stock, and will shortly be winging it’s way over the atlantic to me…
EDIT: I have received it, it’s beautiful. I’ve noticed that Urban Outfitters in Covent Garden have started to stock this and various other Imaginary Foundation t-shirts.
Rather like this t-shirt featuring some Marvin-esque grumpy robots from Zeroboutique. Note to the webmaster of that site: if you need to have 10 point instructions on how to select a shirt – something’s too complicated.
Perusing the shops of Covent Garden on Saturday it seemed that the anorak/cagoule/windcheater is back. Out has gone the high-tech, gore-tex, extreme rambler look, replaced by a more retro, classic style. 6876 have gone for the full blown, yellow, Souwester look (see above) but cut it in a nice causal shape that looks surprisingly smart. Boxfresh have gone for a more, murky, almost camoflague look, however best of all is the ever reliable Penguin. Navy blue with white piping (unfortunately no images online) it’s the kind of thing that would have got you beaten up at school admittedly. Now however, combined with a short-sleeve check shirt, it rocks a preppy Happy Days look. Available in Urban Outfitters, Covent Garden
You probably need to look like our Gallic friend here to pull this off, but Zara have great doublebreasted trenchcoats at the moment for a mere £40 (epaulettes and belt included, Gallois and Jane Birkin not)
After eyeing the Pringle jumpers, I opted for a similar diamond design, but cheaper and in my opinion much better 😉 , an Abercrombie “Algonquin” tank top from EBay.
