Concept: The signature of Douglas tailoring is a collection of classic, sophisticated cuts. The finest fabric is sourced worldwide and combined in a collection that reflects the uncompromising quality of this distinctive brand. Traditional classics and modern tailoring combine to create a range of key pieces for the modern professional.
Key Colours: The iciness of previous seasons has been replaced by a mixture of tropical pastels and warm autumnal hues creating a freshness for casual lounging. Suitings are demure with subtle designs flashing from the lining, or accents of colour in the stripe that provide city-life with understated style.
Key Fabrics: Mohair and pure merino wools allow a distinct approach to formal-wear. Natural stretch combines luxury and practicality, while designs range from under-stated to cutting-edge. Pure cotton and cotton/nylon blends are key for outer casualwear, whereas washed cotton and linen separates allow ease and coolness for semi-formal occasions. Soft nappas form the basis of a luxurious leather selection, while a new co-ordinating shirt range complete a collection that provides for every occasion.
Key Pieces:
- Suiting; a contemporary silhouette is highlighted by modern design features. Pocket angles and break-points have been refined and perfected to make this season's tailoring the most up-to-the-minute yet.
- Jackets; softer construction adds ease and relaxation. Fabrics are light in weight and casualness is heightened by the use of soft cottons and linens washed out to create a feeling of comfort. A more sculpted, contemporary silhouette updates the Douglas jacket collection and modernises the look.
- Trousers; soft cottons and high-performance wools combine with a range of styles that provide a modern basis for any wardrobe. Plays on yoke details, pocket styles, and leg-width all create effortless stylishness and flair.
- Outerwear; high performance Poly-Cotton-Nylons and soft leathers add to styles that have a clever combination of form and function.
- Shirting; an ultimately modern range in the finest of cottons. Plays on stripe widths is a key look to SP'07. Small and large checks are also evident as are geometric weaves.
- Knitwear; double mercerised cottons, brushed cotton flat back ribs, fine gauge intarsia's and heavier gauge mouline's give the casual knitwear range a luxury feeling in a season that is all about colour.
The Douglas Spring/Summer '07 collection is a complementary mix of luxury and practicality, forming a range of design essentials for the modern professional.
