London Classic
Quintessentially British, no one does formal more or better than the brits!
Throughout history Britain was known for it’s formal lifestyle and fashion.
​
The most Classic and Formal style city of them all, London baby! You no longer have to apologise for feeling overdressed. However, time is seeing a more modern London evolve with a ‘Smart Casual’ street style that embodies a formal style with a comfortable on the ego twist. You don’t see many running for the tube in pointy court shoes today.
​
Everything about LONDON screams quintessentially British and is such a great representation for this Classic and Timeless approach to style with the ultimate Classics being born of this city such as The Burberry Trench coat, LK Bennet courts and Mulberry Bayswater.
​
Being a London Classic is all about owning your simple and timeless Style by adding in modern, polished looking casual essentials to create that ‘dressed down up’ look for comfort on the go. Smart casual to smart is your game. Looking put together, clean and simple is your top priority followed by practicality and comfort on the go.

Luxe and lavish MILAN OR the most common LONDON-LA which is best described as classic and casual.
