Our first foray into ready-to-wear eveningwear collection. It is all about having a good time in full glamour, as we celebrate one of the most important festive seasons of the year. Enjoy the pieces, and build your black tie wardrobe with these as foundation.

Learn about our ideas behind the Caviar corduroy and the Teddy Brown from the Fall/Winter season’s collection. Our thoughts were vivid…

The archetypal American looks through our lens, from traditional school attire to Wall Street power move, and the constant straddle between urban and country.

Breaking down two looks from our Fall/Winter 24 Lookbook ‘Uptown Man’, we take a closer look into the two new Natural Flex Twill jackets and the Penzance Moccasins.

This tale follows a countryman with a curious eye, venturing into the heart of the Big Apple. Throughout his journey, he grapples with an internal resistance to change, holding fast to his organic way of life. The urban lifestyle clashes with his country roots, yet as he explores the city's nooks and crannies, he discovers the hidden charms of each area, ultimately finding a harmonious medium in style.

When men swayed women's fashion choices, women, in turn, left their mark on men's attire. Thus, the evolution of this men’s jacket was shaped by both. Does it still matter?

From this article, you may learn about the influences and individuals that inspired the creation of the Goodman Jacket.

It's amusing how every garment christened with a 'something-man' suffix seems to carry a metaphor or poetic meaning. But for our new Bigman shirt, the name is as basic and straightforward as it gets. It’s simply the most direct and instinctive narrative we could conceive.

Heydays are fleeting. These are the days of abundance. We call this ‘Hay Days,’ not mere heydays, because great style and design are accumulative, and they transcend time.

We had the immense pleasure of having Richard Biedul showcase this year's transeasonal silhouettes. We're keeping the conversation about tailoring going strong.

The 60-inspired beach shirt has carved a distinctive niche in contemporary menswear. Following an extensive search for unique, one-of-a-kind textiles perfect for the Freeman Popovers, we are excited to offer you a new experience under the Artefacts section, where you can discover a curated collection of rare and exceptional objects.

‘Oh shirt, you feel like a second skin.’ A common saying, but not easily done. Crafted from premium, breathable cotton, they provide unbeatable comfort in warmer seasons. It’s worth noting our commitment to synthetic-free or minimal allergen-free high-quality blends. Chime in to see ‘here's why.’

What is elegance today? People seem to be all at sea. It looks like the world has turned topsy-turvy, the balance has gone out of whack, culture appears to be going down the drain, and the discerning eye for quality and style seems to have lost its sparkle. In the mad dash for comfort, many have thrown grace and sophistication out the window. Yet, must it be so? Showcasing various styles and settings for the newly introduced street slippers by Bowhill and Elliot for The Anthology.

If you'd asked us about a good polo shirt a couple of years back, we'd have told you they were meant to be tucked in most of the time, particularly in the context of tailoring. But times have changed - a good vacation polo, which is meant for both leisure and tailoring, can be the best of both worlds. Learn about our new summer knitted polo, with a new blend of linen and cotton, with a considered length suitable for tucked and tucked. 

Marrakesh’s ruins reminded us to learn to cherish, to appreciate asymmetry and flaws that are found in nature. It is the wabi-sabi (侘び寂び) aesthetic, or state of mind. Thoughtful designs would always adhere to an important design philosophy 'form follows function’. A deep dive into our Peak Summer collection, where we learn a little more about our creators’ design philosophy and the season’s highlight.

An ancient town, steadily crumbling and perpetually in decay, offers nothing neatly paved. Its only remnants are a weathered pink facade, barely standing. Check out our Peak Summer lookbook, set in one of our favourite old towns, Medina.

65 London Street. This quaint shop along the cobbled streets of Norwich has been home to shoemaker Bowhill and Elliott for the last 150 years in Great Britain – the premises’ itself, however, has contributed to the shoemaking trade of the East of England even beyond that.

As the sun climbs to its peak, it paints the world in a dazzling array of colours. Picture in your mind a city basking in the warm sunlight. Its ancient cityscapes bathed in golden light, with bustling souks brim with life under the golden glow.

When we consider uniforms, we envision our iconic palette of honey, oatmeal, brown, and sage. Yet, over time, even our most seasoned team members, along with new Anthologists, often return to basics as they navigate their style journey. See how the A team wears the Everyman Suits.

"Beyond An Everyman Suit" presents a captivating series that explores the versatility of garments from the Everyman collection, showcasing various styles and settings for the classic Navy, Charcoal, and Light Grey ensembles.

In recent years, one might say that the ever-reliable and ever-dutiful navy and charcoal suiting options have become judged; thought of as too commonplace, conventional, or for some, a little uninspiring and while, yes, they are a wardrobe staple for most, we believe this doesn’t make them any less beautiful, unique or above all else; desirable.

Lookbook before launch. The Everyman Suits will be going live on Thursday (May 2) at 12pm GMT.

Introducing the sueded linen series, in colours inspired over a coffee chat within the team, with Cappuccino representing the essence of Day, Espresso representing the allure and sophistication of Night.

As the days grow longer, finally sending the winter-sun fading into the reflection of the rear-view mirror, the sun-drenched road ahead will start to come into view, bringing with it a plethora of opportune moments for The Anthologist to indulge themselves in the soft splendour of our new Knitted Cotton Sweaters.

As a textile, cashmere is the embodiment of what we wanted to create the Lazyman Jacket to be within its spirit. One may say then that this combination is a merging of two of the same – the Lazyman Jacket in its truest form.

One of the uppermost and imperative pieces of the season is the ‘A’ Wrap Coat. In a more versatile form to our first proposed coating silhouette, the Polo Coat, this first release of the raglan-sleeved wrap coat has been yearned and anticipated by our Anthologists, ourselves included.

Through dressing and culture, we’ve learnt to find people of similar wavelengths amongst the ocean of people. These are the people that make us whole. Enjoy some highlights of the best dressed Anthologists from Pitti Uomo through Robert’s lens.

A recap of the team spending three days last week at the biannual menswear tradeshow in Florence - Pitti Uomo, the 105th edition, where we connect with industry friends and run through developments, to make more opportunities and possibilities happen at The Anthology.

As we continue to revel in the spirit of our featured colour of the season — black, what better way to conclude the year than by delving into the world of eveningwear to draw 2023 to a close on a resounding note? In this pursuit of eveningwear extravaganza, the name La Bowtique Bowties emerges.

As we head towards the end of the year, we want to take this opportunity to express our heartfelt gratitude to our valued #Anthologists, our source of joy. Your unwavering support has been the driving force behind our journey, and as a token of our appreciation, we've prepared three Christmas crackers filled with a surprise each for all of those who view this.
