Q: Ah, the tweed, the fabric of aristocratic fox hunting and stuffy professors. And now, suddenly so fashionable in the urban jungle of Asia as it is in country houses of Europe. But how can you incorporate the fabric into a modern male wardrobe?
A: In addition to paintings, other traditional outdoor fabrics associated with colder climates, tweed has a strong presence in this season, both jackets and pants. However, you are cautious, even trepidatious, to take him out of fear of becoming, well, tweed?
Nonsense. First, we tweed fabric today is not the stern of years past. A little softer and finer, the modern version of wool is not itchy fabric that our ancestors used. Even tweediest makers ─ Tweed Harris Tweed Scotland Ltd., one of the three mills that Harris Tweed is certified by the UK government launched a tweed ─ light in September. Within the first two weeks, within the company than 5,000 vests in the new tissue is sold out.
Scottish tweed manufacturer is surprised that his first need is now the height of fashion. "We see now, walking down the street, so many people in tweed," said Lydia Walton, public relations director at Harris Tweed Scotland. "It was a snowball for a couple of years, but this year has been enormous. I really do not know why."
The point is to match the tweed for the occasion. If you go to time outside the country or spending, choose tweed in earthy tones, such as the design of green and brown Hamish controls. Wearing a white shirt, jeans and a pair of sandals or brown boots. For urban areas, which are better with darker colors, like a herringbone check black and white. This style jacket goes well with gray flannel trousers and a dark shirt.
Of course, these are just guidlines. Tweed fashion, like all fashion, it differs in various parts of the world. "In Italy, Hamish design will be used with pencil pants and pointy shoes ─ I do not see here in the UK," said Mrs. Walton.
If there is a rule to play, it would be this: Never pair of tweed jacket with tweed pants, especially if they match. A tweed suit? Even the driest of academic conferences. "Once you wear a tweed suit, looks a little crazy," he said. We tend to agree.
