The Handbook returns, this time for Spring/Summer 26. Requiring a concise and consistent group of garments, it's the season in which I produced our first collection, laying the groundwork for the look we champion today.

I'm accustomed to designing for a British sensibility through an Italian lens, aiming to create a wardrobe suitable for our London home. A city that doesn't stop for Summer: a brief moment that sneaks up on us, occasionally lingers but is too often fleeting.

Our focus therefore is on versatility, with silk and linen tailored sports jackets the jewel in the crown of our warm-weather offering. Our patrons have commissioned garments in this fabric for almost a decade, seeking the material's adaptability and aesthetic, pairing beautifully with washed out selvedge denim and twisted wool trousers alike.

Every year we prepare for the calendar of events during which the city truly blooms, with patrons arriving at 57 Weymouth Street to dress for weddings, Wimbledon and everything in between. Our ambition is for occasion-wear to balance the contemporary with enough classicism to match the centuries-old traditions that are being upheld.

We've worked hard to also imbue this spirit throughout our collection of casual ready-to-wear, putting our handwriting in everything from polo shirts and deck shoes to rugby jerseys and technical outerwear. With a cornucopia of references stretching from our Industrialist and Paninaro heroes to Madras weaving and the sporting culture that surrounds us all, this collection comprises simple, elegant garments made with plenty of character and without gimmicks.
