Autumn 2026
The campaign
This is a collection for assembling rather than matching. A striped shirt beneath a charcoal jacket. Indigo denim with a navy blazer. A tactile cardigan under tailoring. The pieces are designed to connect, but never to become uniform.

Tailoring
A suit that doesn’t feel like one
No canvassing, and a soft roll to the shoulder, so the jacket drapes rather than holds a shape. Jackets and trousers are sold separately, because a suit that only comes out a handful of times a year is not worth its weight in cloth.
Indigo
Never quite finished
Indigo does not behave like a flat pigment. It sits on and within the fibres in layers, and develops variation as it fades and wears. The result is not deterioration but evolution: a garment gathering character rather than getting older.
This season it runs through Westall denim, Faye herringbone shirting, jersey and soft tailoring.
Seasonal highlights
Trousers
The Utility Trouser
A denim trouser rather than a jean, closer in spirit to a fatigue pant. Indigo-dyed 11oz cotton, lighter than a jean weight, without the stitching that shouts military.
Outerwear
The Lothian Coat
Modelled on a traditional Loden coat. Long and fluid, with a rear dart that lets it move rather than hang. Oli's own is the brown houndstooth.
Outerwear
The Crosby Coat
Shorter than the Lothian and closer to a duster, cut with a raglan sleeve in a rugged cotton twill. The Lothian is elegant. This one carries a bit of attitude.
Knitwear
The Britten Cardigan
Oli's favourite piece in the whole collection, and the one that most feels like the era it came from.
Tailoring
The Leather Westbury
Simple construction, so the hide does the work. A soft shoulder, with room to layer a knit underneath when the weather turns.
Knitwear
The V-neck
A new shape this season. The open front gives you another chance to layer colour and texture underneath.
Trousers
The Morton Pleat
Chalk stripe and pleated, and Oli's own pick this season. A proper pair of trousers does more for a casual outfit than almost anything else.
Accessories
The Travel Bag
Made with Secret Trips, old friends of ours, for the seventy-two hour getaway. Cabin sized at 44 by 22 by 30cm, with a sleeve at the back that slides over a trolley handle, bellowed zip pockets at the front and metal feet underneath. £645.
Footwear and accessories
Finishing touches
Belts, ties, hats, scarves and socks, bags from Porter-Yoshida, and tote bags cut from fabric left over from earlier collections.
