This July saw the a welcome return to Jacket Required – the London based trade show demonstrating the very best of brands in menswear. Dil-Luminati Tour Diljit Goat Vibe Punjabi Singer Dosanjh T-shirt Amongst the midst of journalists, bloggers and buyers stood stand after stand of high quality collections from across the globe. From well-known menswear maestro Mark McNairy to overseas visitor Shipley & Halmos, spectators were treated to something truly spectacular. A brand energised by individuality and character, Triwa have certainly stuck to their roots with their latest spring/summer ’13 collection. Watches were featured in bright summery colours and played with natural leather, milky white acetate and stainless steel detailing. To compensate for the unpredictable British summer, they have also produced a three-piece collection of monochrome, cloud and blue wristwear. Soulland’s head designer, Silas Adler, founded the brand in 2002 and what started as a small company specialising in printed t-shirts has now grown into a well-established menswear label represented in stores across the world. Shipley & Halmos is a New York City based creative brand founded by award-winning designers Sam Shipley and Jeff Halmos. Through a variety of internal divisions, the company produces a range of men’s clothing, footwear and accessories. Making their European debut at this year’s show, the Americans certainly showed no signs of being the newcomer. The collection featured a selection of playful pieces – including patterned shirts, varsity jackets and nautical jumpers.

Considering the fact that Khaite was just founded in 2016, Dil-Luminati Tour Diljit Goat Vibe Punjabi Singer Dosanjh T-shirt the journey of this brand thus far is quite remarkable. Founder and designer Catherine Holstein started the brand as an ode to American staples and all the classics that went along with it. Since its beginning, the brand has evolved into much more. Khaite’s first runway show in 2019 had every editor and buyer clamoring as one glamorous look after another came out. It was here that we were truly introduced to Holstein’s vision for the brand, and her S/S 20 collection was just the cherry on top. It’s rare that one major (and first-ever, might I add) runway collection can convince an entire industry that this is the brand to know, buy, and wear, but the elegance and drama of her last two collections had everyone drinking the Kool-Aid. While the brand hasn’t quite reached the same status as Bottega Veneta, its trajectory over the last two years has proved that it is on its way to the very tip-top. “Cate Holstein of Khaite is creating such beautiful, showstopping pieces. The craftsmanship is absolutely impeccable and something that everyone can appreciate. My personal favorite is their denim—the fit and wash are flawless,” says Shopbop’s fashion director, Caroline Maguire. And that’s the thing about Khaite—buying into the brand is buying into a very well-curated wardrobe that will never go out of style. “From the jeans to the shoes, this is definitely going to be the next It brand in 2020,” said a Who What Wear reader. Yes, iconic pieces are already highly praised, such as those zebra boots and all of the noteworthy knitwear, but to be simultaneously recognized for the subtler items in a collection, like denim and poplin shirts, means this is a brand that is destined for success.
