Whether he’s dashing in and out of board meetings, travelling to the countryside for a getaway or attending dinner parties, a modern gentleman’s fast-paced life always keeps him on the move. The changing scenarios from day to night require a wardrobe that matches with the same pace. Therefore being impeccably dressed no matter what the occasion is a prerequisite at all times. With Hackett London’s autumn/winter 2019 collection that mixes timeless elegance with contemporary British design, men can build a wardrobe with autumn wardrobe essentials that keep up with the pace of their lives.

Simple layering is a strong foundation in Hackett’s collections. Therefore, classics are given a contemporary twist in the form of traditional overcoats, modern outerwear, bold checked suiting, and updated knitwear. The collection adopts a muted, autumnal tone in line with the season’s changing colours and the concept of getting one’s wardrobe organised ahead of returning to work after the summer. A softened tweed jacket or a lightweight down parka are such classics that have been reinterpreted in line with the urban gentleman’s needs. One can easily mix and match these outerwear pieces with other items in a wardrobe.

In Hackett’s New Country line, the brand DNA of traditional Old England comes together with a modern, everyday twist. A patchwork shawl cardigan made from 55% wool and 45% cotton, is an upgrade on the traditional British cardigan and will work perfectly for rural excursions and urban settings alike. Similarly, the Hybrid Holborn jacket with its flannel and wax exterior, is the perfect piece for both city dwellers and countrymen. Choose from a range of wool and cashmere crewnecks, V-necks and Fair Isle jumpers for the colder months. Try these with a tattersall check shirt and Kensington or Sanderson chinos for a refined autumnal look.

There’s a renewed confidence to business suiting with Hackett Mayfair collection. The hooded quilt parka, the hybrid suede blouson jacket, cashmere-blend trousers and a double-breasted Glencheck suit whose wider lapels create an authentic British fit take you from the boardroom to lunch with clients effortlessly. There’s a full complement of dress shirts in blue, crimson and white too. Ties come in understated prints or club stripes.The entire Autumn Winter 2019 collection by Hackett features strong, seasonal updates that are guaranteed to take the Hackett gentleman on a stylish journey – whether he resides in the countryside or the city.
