To make their mark at LCM this season, esteemed gentlemen’s tailor Chester Barrie took over the Private Room at The Ivy for an altogether exquisite showcase of their latest collection. Dashing models played the ideal man to Barrie’s ideal new seasonal wardrobe and allowed audiences to indulge in all the minute details their new suits, in classic forms, have to show for themselves. This interactive setting was flanked by mannequins donning the fine cuts for SS16 which ranged from lounge suits for garden parties to slick city looks that remain cool in the heat of the moment.
In debonair Prince of Wales check and pinstripe in sumptuous blues that centred on a right royal shade, this season meant clothing comes outfitted with an almost regal air. In addition, Barrie balances a stylish suit accompanied by all the appropriate accoutrements, from pocket square to boutonniere and a killer pair of shades, marvellously. It takes a suiter with a lot of prestige to style an outfit with all the finest components without venturing into fussy or cluttered territory.
When it it came to the whole package, this, amongst many other casually luxurious details, ticked all the right boxes for Chester Barrie this season. This Savile Row resident knows how to please and engage with its consumers, and thus, seamlessly allows them to live the kind of life they aspire to.
