Marks & Spencer showed its AW14 Best of British collection at London Collections:Men in January. In a dramatic show, using models as opposed to the static display they used previously, M&S continued their successful search for British-made menswear style. Again they have raided their archives and the seventies have clearly been a heavy influence. I remember some of this stuff the first time round and I love it. There will even be a brown velvet jacket - groovy!
I look forward to seeing the Autumn/Winter collection more closely. Meanwhile, see the wonderful Spring/Summer Best of British collection, now in the shops and on the M&S website here.
Great looking items, both past and present. I recall seeing clothes very much like these in the pages of In Britain, a magazine my maternal grandmother used to subscribe to in the 1970s. Barring the good flared pants and goofy men's hairstyles, good looking stuff with nice patterns and textures.
