Freeman Popover - Mauve





Freeman Popover - Mauve
90% Linen 10% Wool
As part of The Anthology’s resortwear series, this is the long-sleeve popover based on the 1960s beach shirt with our modified twists. An expressive throw-on-and-go piece, this piece is uniquely proportioned to pivot between a standalone statement and a stylish layering piece. The design comes with an enlarged pocket and a specially designed collar with horn buttons where need be.
The essence of the design comes in the fit. The loose fit of this popover allows for unrestricted movement and comfort. The fabric gently skims the body, creating a flattering and relaxed look. With the loose-fitting flowingness, the design oozes an air of elegance, with effortless drape and graceful silhouette lending a touch of at-ease sophistication. Curved hem with raised side slits, the bottom forms a dynamic opening, taking the whole fluid form to another level.
Widely distinctive from usual shirting cloth, this design comes in a specially-sourced wool linen blend, accompanied by excellent drape and hang, faintly textured with an abundance of herringbone weaves.
Pair this with: Khaki, honey, cream, green and brown. Perfect for the beach paired with shorts or swimming trunks. Finish off the look with your Panama hat, French espadrilles and your favourite pair of sunnies.
Care tips: Cold wash (below 30°C) by hand or machine, hang dry only

55% Linen 45% Cotton
Our sartorial manifestation of the archetypal Anthology garment for the spring summer season, an articulation of the house’s core identity.
This is a double-breasted suit jacket in specially-developed Japanese cotton/linen that can live on its own or pair with its amicable bottoms to complete a set. Extracting the best of both worlds, this exclusive blend borrows the moisture-wicking properties and neat drape of linen, while expressing the soft-handed feel of cotton, a fine example of casual tailoring. Woven up in a twill construction, it brings an extra coat of sartorial elegance by elevating the style with faint textures, also brings the spirit of rarity to the table.
Our jacket features an unpadded shoulder with our signature lapel buttonhole, with higher armholes giving the garment an exceptional range of motion. We’ve also extended the shoulders slightly to complement the spalla camicia, also described as the waterfall shoulders for a more laid-back aesthetic.
Complete the set with: Linen/Cotton Twill Pleated Trousers - Cream
Pair this with: sky blue, rust, khaki, olive, navy and brown.

100% Supima Cotton
Our interpretation of a casual t-shirt that frames a clean and smart look. An idea inspired by 1950s sportswear, it is the culmination of contemporary and ‘high vintage’.
The style features a simple design with specific proportions — a higher neck, ribbed sleeve and collar, shorter body and longer ribbed hem. This allows the t-shirt to hug around your trousers’ waistband without going too long or needing to be tucked in, maintaining good overall proportions even when paired with mid to high-rise trousers and sport coats.
This product is made of fine-gauge organic cotton, handpicked and sustainably farmed. (Please read our Ethical Sourcing and Production Statement) Incorporating full knitted construction, this breathable summer knitwear gives a defined body and contour. To enhance the luxurious silken finish and soft hand, the garment has gone through a tumble washing procedure in a final step unique to The Anthology.
Pair this with: practically anything in your wardrobe, be it a suit, sport jacket or Lazyman jacket. Colour-wise we suggest blue, brown, grey and white. Sneakers and espadrilles are also suitable.
Care tips: Cold wash (below 30°C) by hand or machine, hang dry only

Long, but right before your knees, keeping your proportions right, also exemplifying pleated perfection.
If a pair of shorts go too long, covering one's knees, it makes one looks short. If the shorts are done too short and timid, it would look more like a pair of swim trunks, or worse, boxers. This artefact is all about striking the perfect balance, and we managed to find the unrivalled solution.
As part of The Anthology’s resortwear series, this is a ‘modern-vintage’ design made in a cotton/linen blend as a quintessential item, suitable to wear on the beach, the city, or even an excursion.
The form of the shorts is the true essence — it embodies chic and comfort. With practicality in mind, the design comes with slight volume around the thigh and the opening, ensuring the piece to be generous around the thigh part, allows ventilation.
The use of cloth is also the highlight. Cotton as the major constituent upholds a supple and moist look to the general garment, smoothens up linen’s characteristically dry and crisp handle. It also offers a more structural body, making creases look less wrinkly. The appeal is reminiscent of traditional preppy or English country chinos, just with an extra touch of linen for a sense of modernity and practicalism.
Linen also serves a functional purpose as it possesses a quick-dry effect and ventilating property due to its looser weaving structure, allowing wearers to enjoy their best under the heat. It is also traditionally perceived as a luxurious fabrication.
(We recommend the shorts hem to end right before your knees, otherwise, bring it to your alteration tailor for a simple alteration for the best result.)
