Sinopse

Mr ClassicJeremy HackettJeremy HackettPhotographs by Garda Tang Foreword by Andrew Tuck ‘Cordovan penny loafers, the virtue of wearing pyjamas to bed, the evils of black nylon luggage and the art of monogramming shirts ... Hackett simply relishes dressing well – and helping others to do the same’ – Menswear Today classic English style and tailoring enjoy worldwide adulation. And when it comes to top-drawer tailoring, there is nobody quite like Jeremy Hackett.Hackett takes us on a Grand Tour of an appealing world of Bentleys and polo, bicycles and picnics, bow ties and Sussex Spaniels, top hats and bespoke luggage. Along the way, he muses on sartorial codes: why plus twos beat plus fours, the ideal length of sock, the pros and cons of cufflinks and the art of monogramming.Brimming with anecdotes and observations as sharp as his suits – as well as more than a glancing nostalgia for an age when a chap knew how to dress for an occasion – this is a book for those who appreciate the finer things in life.Jeremy Hackett left school aged 17 and worked his way up from the shop floor until finally starting his own label, Hackett, in 1983. He remains Chairman of Hackett to this day. Jeremy discovered an aptitude for writing when he was commissioned to write for The Independent on Sunday. The Mr Classic column ensued, gathering a loyal following, and ran for three years. Garda Tang is a London-based photographer who studied photography while at the London School of Fashion. His work can be found in leading fashion magazines throughout the world.
