Pitti Uomo: Grey Fox to be a Guest of Ettinger

Tuesday, 5 June 2018

Next week I will be travelling to Florence to visit Pitti Uomo as a guest of Ettinger, who manufacture luxury leather goods in Walsall here in the UK. It was The Sartorialist's images of stylish older men at Pitti that got me started in the early days of this blog, giving me inspiration and hope that dressing well in older age is not an impossible task. 

This is my second visit and I'm very excited to be again travelling as a guest of a British brand. While there I will be taking over Ettinger's Instagram account for a period, but I'm pleased to say that I'm also free to feature many of the British brands that will be present at Pitti. There are quite a few, so I won't cover them all, but I intend to see as many as I can while there.

Ettinger are also hosting a dinner next Wednesday to celebrate the British presence in Florence and some prestigious names will be there from the manufacturing and fashion worlds.

I hope to wear and use clothing and accessories from British brands (many will be manufactured here as well) and have been putting together some outfits for the warmth of Florence (all that eludes me are sunglasses from a British company - let me know if you can help).

Please follow both GreyFoxBlog and Ettinger on Instagram next week to see more about Pitti Uomo and some of the British brands that will be there.

    Hi David, maybe try Cubitts (near Borough Market and in Soho) for British made sunglasses for your trip to Florence
