English Laundry Clothing Puts a New Spin on British Fashion

By Hannah Charleston


English Laundry is an upscale brand of clothing designed by Christopher Wicks which features a uniquely English style and attitude. The clothing line borrows heavily from traditional English clothing as well as pop culture styles of clothing that have prevailed throughout the past decades. It features men's clothing predominantly, but there is an off shoot brand, English Rose, which is dedicated specifically to women.

Men's Tops include long sleeve woven shirts, short sleeve woven shirts, short sleeve tees, jackets and blazers, vests, long sleeve tees, sweaters, and hoodies. Current designs for the long sleeve woven shirts include Freddie Dreamer, Saint Cross in blue plaid, and White Lion Hall in black. The short sleeve tee designs currently include Smart Tee in off white pigment, Lions Crown in light blue pigment, No One Can Take Us in light grey pigment, and Beware of the Dog in off-white pigment. The extra stylish line of jackets and blazers include Henry Normal Blazer, Pop Cult Blazer, and Lincolnshire Military jacket. The line of vests has designs for both dress and casual wear. These include the Metro Vest, Failsworth Vest in tan, and the Yarmouth Vest in black.

The women's line of English Laundry clothing is called English Rose and features the clothing lines of Long Sleeve Woven Shirts, Jackets and Sweaters, and vests. The Long Sleeve Woven Shirts line contains many different patterns to suit different occasions. There is the dressy Luton in black, the cute Lady Barn in either pink or grey, the country-side themed Virginia in Red plaid, the Kearsley in Black, and the Title II in either pink or grey. There are four designs in the jackets & sweaters department which include the sleeveless Heywod Sweater, the Lord Strange belted and embroidered jacket, the Withington Trench Coat Dress, and the Northended Trench Coat Dress. There are also 5 vests featured in the English Rose line of clothing including the Black Rose Vest and the Burnage Vest.

The English Laundry collection of bottoms for men includes jeans, shorts, and slacks. The jeans feature two designs: the Crest Jeans design or the Red Selvege jeans. The Crest jeans feature an English lion crest on the pant leg, and come in either black wash or vintage wash. The Red Selvege jeans have a skinny, straight leg and come in either dark wash or rinse wash. There are two kinds of shorts offered as well: the Peterloo Cargo Short, and the Tameside Cargo Short. The Peterloo Cargo short comes in either grey plaid or olive, each sporting a striped, plaid design. The Tameside Cargo Short comes in black, brown, or cotton. Both cargo short designs feature large pockets and are made of 100 percent cotton. The two designs of slack available are North Slacker and Hathersage slack.

Besides clothing, English Laundry proudly offers accessories such as wallets, ties, scarves, and belts which display British images such as the Union Jack, royal crown, and lion crest. You are sure to find what you're looking for in this dignified line of clothing. English Laundry has brought British sophistication and luxury to the world of fashion.
