URBANE SOPHISTICATION
Dunhill
Launched under the name Compendium, the Fall Winter 2021 collection features objects of both provenance and purpose. It is a play between the homespun and urbane, of utility and formality, brought together with an easeful, almost slovenly sophistication. In many ways, it is a reflection on how we live now, together with a summation of Dunhill’s past, present and future. “This is something that seems more appropriate when a collection is looked at in detail rather than shown and seen at a distance. Last season was about stopping and assessing; it was about the rigour of the process.” said Mark Weston, Creative Director of Dunhill. “This collection, for one, is an inquisitive exploration of the expertise of tailoring. But there is also the joyful immediacy of found objects as well as the domestic and homespun, personal and playful moments underpinned by the rigour of formality and utility.” he continued. Dunhill has ultimately ticked off all the essentials of a luxurious Londoner. Subtle cap to be thrown on, functional and fancy outerwear, and even fancier things to be worn underneath. The split-cuff trouser is the perfect piece to show you’re a little bit ahead of the curve.
