Re: suits, there are hundreds of different types of suits, but the most common cuts are british, american and italian. I could see Lando (aka would love to see) most likely in an italian cut (slim tailoring on trousers and jacket, unstructured shoulders, light cloth (not colour but fabric) also looks very nice with an open collar and no tie...). Typical big brand names here are Zegna, Armani or Attolini, I personally love Kiton and Brioni as well, but just googling itlian cut suits should show some good results.

For Oscar, I would adore a (for once) properly tailored brutish cut suit (higher waistline for the trousers, more structure in the shoulders, tapered waist, thicker fabrics). Maybe even make it a proper three-piece bc ever since the wetsuit pics from Australia, I think we all agree that those curves need to be shown more often. Examples here are Ted Baker, Dunhill and ofc everything Savile row.

Tho if we keep with the Mclaren sponsors, Reiss does some great work as well. There's a double-breasted tuxedo jacket in this year's collection that I would love to see Lando in (then again tuxedos are a whole nother topic ...)

This got very long and is probably not very helpful but I love infodumping about fashion lol <3

i know you were self conscious about writing at length about this but all i have to say is: yes. here is some additional photographic evidence from my POV;

lando in snazzy italian tailoring, but to take the stylised vector a bit further:

exhibit a: asymmetric waistcoat with steampunk details

exhibit b: italian but with a fun pattern

exhibit c: open collar a step further, he could so rock a 70s suit. also just really need him to rock the gucci glasses with some shiny loafers like he’s sooooo got that vibe. im thinking how bruno mars and harry styles wear that kind of suiting sometimes

now to our elusive chanteuse f1 driver oscar jack. i feel like it’s, like what you described, about a classic style but with really fine details. good fabrics, simple cuts, plain colourways. below is pretty stylised but also this is rpf and it’s my playground and if we were claiming realism we should just put the rpf toys down full stop and i am not doing that!!

if taking a costume designer’s perspective too, there could be soooo much you could say with layering and pattern and contrast depending where we are in the story or plot. the idea of fic!oscar in a classic brit cut suit with tiny revealing details like a handkerchief (lando’s) or a button (a nod to a family member or a friend) is very dear to me.

the other option i like is a classic tux jacket with tails and crisp shirt and a a sky blue handkerchief, like idk that image also tickles me for some reason.

anyway so i had been thinking about a tailor AU- *loud scuffling noise as i try to put wayward au ideas back in their box*

p.s. oscar in dunhill... like u were cooking but u especially cooked w that one....

and tagging the people who might be interested in this conversation i invite y’all to weigh in!! @cx-boxbox @kichona-s and @jusst-you-race

MR PORTER Sale is Now Up to 60% Off and Actually Feels Kinda Manageable

MR PORTER kicked off their massive spring/summer sale a couple weeks ago, and have now made their first round of further discounts, adding more merchandise to the sale and further reducing price to as low as 60% off.

I’ve previously written about how the scale of the sale makes it overwhelming to sort through. And although the current iteration includes over 7,000 products (down from 13,000 when the sale went live—sorry, guys) from hundreds of designers, to me it somehow feels more manageable than in past years.

A helpful change at this point of the sale is the addition of two new pages.

New to Sale merchandise is from a pretty short list of designers (Acne, Berluti, Brunello Cucinelli, Dunhill, Jacquemus, MR P., Nike, and Serapian).

Further Reductions, including the merchandise that’s now up to 60% off, features a much longer and more interesting list. Here are a bunch of my favorites:

A.P.C. - Parisian casual staples.

Albam - London casual staples.

Alex Mill - American casual staples (is there a theme here?) Founded by Alex Drexler (son of famed J. Crew CEO Mickey Drexler) and J. Crew/Madewell design director Somsack Sikhounmuong.

AMI Paris - More Parisian casual staples.

Aspesi - Italian label best known for their outerwear. I like this navy cotton A-1 bomber jacket.

Baracuta - I’m liking the classic G9 Harrington jackets made up in alternative fabrics like suede and wool tweed

Barena - Laidback Italian tailoring.

Bigi - Handcrafted Milanese ties, often with interesting textures.

Blue Blue Japan - everything is blue (they’re known for their use of indigo dyes) and it’s designed and made in Japan, so the name is apropos. I love the texture and detailing on this shirt jacket. All sizes are still available, a rarity this late in Mr. Porter’s sale.

Boglioli - Unstructured Italian tailoring. My Boglioli cotton jacket has been a casual spring/summer staple for nearly a decade.

Brooks England - English cycling accessories, including some lovely leather backpacks.

Caruso - My favorite ready-to-wear Italian tailoring brand.

Chimala - Japanese label inspired by mid-century American workwear.

Common Projects - Iconic Italian sneakers. Of course the white Achilles Low isn’t on sale, but other models are.

De Bonne Facture - I dare you to read Derek’s recent piece on the brand and not be inspired by their approach to sustainable, ethical fashion.

Drake’s - Iconic accessories brand that’s expanded to a complete wardrobe. Tip: Drake’s collaboration pieces also available through Aimé Leon Dore and Mr. Porter’s house brand Kingsman.

E. Marinella - Handmade Neapolitan ties from a third-generation family business. 

George Cleverley - Goodyear-welted English shoes.

Gitman Vintage - Well-made American shirts based on archival designs.

Golden Bear - San Francisco brand specializing in quality outerwear.

Howlin’ - Knitwear designed in Antwerp and knit in Scotland.

Inis Meáin - Luxurious knitwear from the namesake Irish Aran isle.

John Smedley - Fine (as in, not chunky) English knitwear.

Johnstons of Elgin - Scottish cashmere accessories.

Kingsman - Mr. Porter house label with a focus on luxury tailoring. Great collaboration pieces from Drake’s (ties and pocket squares) and George Cleverley (shoes).

Lock & Co. Hatters - Well-made flat caps and trilbys.

MR P. - Mr. Porter’s “citified casual” house label. I’m really liking their suede trucker jacket.

Officine Générale - Accessible yet still interesting French style.

Outerknown - Casualwear label founded by surfer Kelly Slater. 

Private White V.C. - Fantastic English outerwear.

RRL - Ralph Lauren’s vintage/workwear/Western line. I’ve been eyeing this cotton/wool/linen rollneck sweater.

S.N.S. Herning - Scandinavian knitwear. I’m loving this chunky shawl cardigan.

Sid Mashburn - Best known for their American-Italian tailoring with a Southern flair, but I’m liking a lot of the knitwear in this sale.

Valstar - Famed for their suede A-1 bombers, but don’t sleep on their overshirts and trucker jackets.

Vetements - I honestly don’t “get” Vetements, but I want to point out that their Hug Me Bear shearling slippers are still available.

William Lockie - Well-made Scottish cashmere accessories.

There are many, many more brands both in Further Reductions and in the general sale section that haven’t got additional cuts yet. I’ve also left off a few favorites that only have one or two items left. It’s definitely worth taking a moment to browse your favorites on the All Sale Designers page.

  Mr. Porter: Did you enjoy dressing like the Duke of Windsor?         

 James D’Arcy:  A lot of the clothes in the film were made for me by Martin Nicholls, a tailor, for Dunhill. I had a lot of fittings for these suits and I'm left with far too much knowledge about how to make a great suit. I very much enjoyed the day I got to wear a kilt, but the plus fours I wasn't fussed about. And there was a Prince of Wales check suit that was spectacular.     

Mr. Porter: What was your favourite outfit?          

James D’Arcy: The thing I most enjoyed wearing was a pair of midnight-blue tails. They made me stand differently, they made me feel very debonair; they were incredibly beautiful.                                             

Mr. Porter:  Did you get to keep the clothes?           

James D’Arcy: Dunhill paid for them, so it kept them. It's not as if I'm fat now but I was incredibly thin when I made the film - I was under instruction because he [the Duke of Windsor] was really thin - so now I'd have to breathe in to put them on. I couldn't do anything about my height [Mr Darcy is, at 6'2", more than half a foot taller than the duke] but I could make sure that on the day I wore the swimming trunks I didn't bulge over the top of them. I'm not quite in that shape now.                                                 

Mr. Porter:  Did the film affect your personal style?       

James D’Arcy:  In some indirect way, because I got a very strong sense of how wearing great clothes alters your mood and makes you feel good about yourself, which I'd never really considered before. In terms of directly influencing what I wear, not at all.
