Collection One Launch Revisited

James Vincent — Sun, 30 Aug 2009 07:48:23 +0000

Vincent and Vincent’s Collection One released to stores in April 2009. The collection ranged from cropped biker and bomber jackets to decadent tailored eveningwear, and consisted of seven men’s jackets and two women’s jackets. The cuts and jacket accessories (zippers, buttons etc) were inspired by 1970’s vintage objects we found, and the leathers were selected for their natural properties and the way they will take shape over time.

Rich waxy vegetable tanned leathers and cupro linings give a decadent touch to tight-zipped biker jackets, and our wash-treated goat nubuck buffs back to a dull lustre as it wears in. Biker and bomber jackets feature functional details like zipped cuffs and adjustable tabs on the waist that allow the fit to be adjusted to personal preference. Trims like buttons and buckles are carved from buffalo horn, and we used YKK hardware with locking sliders for our zippers.

Finished optionally in dense goat kid suedes brushed to a plush nap or inky black Italian lamb skins trimmed with velvet, the dinner jackets feature slim proportions, with narrowed peak lapels and shawl collars, pinched waists and high sleeves that capture the austerity of classic eveningwear.

We’d like to thank the stockists that picked up our first collection; Fallow, Dirtbox, Never End Gallery, Fat and Tuchuzy, and the customers that helped make the collection such a success - with many stores and styles selling out within the first weeks!
