Luxury clothing brands that justify the price
Words: Alex Woodhall
You can’t put a price on world class design, in this sense, from an aesthetic perspective, luxury clothing is worth what you’re willing to pay.
But then, there’s the brands who’s designs don’t differ from decade to decade, years, sometimes centuries, of craftsmanship handed down from generation to generation. These are the rare few brands that can truly justify the cost of their wares, products of distinction that are a genuine privilege to own.
Turnbull & Asser
Established back in 1885 and counting customers from Winston Churchill to James Bond, the London shirtmaker also holds a royal warrant, bestowed in 1980 by regal icon of style Prince Charles.
The shirts are made in England using 34 individual pieces of fine cloth and 13 pristine mother-of-pearl buttons for a cuff and collar to be proud of. The hand-stitched silk ties and equally sumptuous hand-rolled pocket are of the highest order also — a must for all of your sartorial embellishments.
