Dunhill Releases Engineering Inspired Radial Collection

Influenced by automotive engineering developments from the 20th century, British luxury menswear label Dunhill releases its Radial collection. Incorporating various design engineering motifs, including silver hardware embellishments and straps made from repurposed car webbing, each piece from the bag and accessories collection is constructed with nylon, maximizing a utilitarian design and function. This technical concept approach ensures the items will last for years.

The Radial collection is available at Dunhill stores and online now.

dunhill Develops Digital Presence

Image: dunhill.

Following a complete overhaul of its website, British luxury house dunhill relaunches its e-commerce platform, hoping to reach more customers around the globe. To recreate the feel of its iconic brick and mortar locations, the website includes a digital platform, which allows visitors to immerse themselves in over 120 years of the brand’s rich history. Specifically highlighting the unique legacy of founder Alfred Dunhill, the website includes his biography and a timeline that details the brand’s transformation from a small motor goods store to a luxury powerhouse.

Perhaps the most interesting, The Club is a newly-dedicated editorial site, which features a slew of writers—like Nick Foulkes and Simon de Burton—and lifestyle bloggers creating content that personifies the dunhill lifestyle. Along with The Club, The Homes section provides customers an opportunity to explore the incredible dunhill flagships that were once private houses: Bourdon House in London and Twin Villas in Shanghai. A video series showcases the amenities each location offers, including made-to-measure and bespoke services, screening rooms, barbershop, and much more.

The new online shop—stocked with the latest goods from the designer, including bags, accessories, and ready-to-wear collections—will even receive some items before they make their way to the physical stores. With the recent departure of creative director John Ray, perhaps this is the first step in a new direction for the London-based brand.

The new dunhill.com is live now.

British luxury label dunhill releases a boldly evolved representation of its Autumn/Winter 2015 collection in a stylishly suave new ad campaign. Shot by fashion-favorite photographer Peter Lindbergh, the premise of the shoot encapsulates the contemporary interpretation of the British fraternal codes of fashion. The campaign showcases its claim to London culture by featuring actor Max Irons and models Jack Guinness and Andrew Cooper for an intensely British lineup. The collection, which lives up to the elite sophistication upon which dunhill prides itself, is a stylistic take on the classic gentleman’s clubs that populate British culture. With wide pea coats and loose-fitted jackets, all bearing the same brown/blue color scheme, the label brings a historic edge to an updated fashion market.

LCM: Backstage dunhill Autumn/Winter 2015

08_Dunhill Image: Ieva Blazeviciute.

In a sense artistically holistic, John Ray’s Autumn/Winter 2015 collection for dunhill draws from the late 1950s to the early 1960s of London’s Soho, specifically focusing on the creative spirit of all the types of men that put it on the map. Navigating through the historic district’s creative patchwork of music, craftmanship, and after hours clubs, the collection directly references notable resident Francis Bacon, by not only weaving the famous painter into the show’s soundtrack, but also in its color palette. This season’s collection—a mix of prep school attire, aristocratic outfits, and painter’s trousers—echo the multi-colored leftover paints found in Bacon’s studio, whereas the fabric itself was exclusively developed by heritage British mills to secure a series of classic menswear patterns.

Cheeky humor and self-assured sophistication radiates off dunhill‘s newly-appointed creative director John Ray’s first campaign for the luxury British brand. Ray, who joined the house this past February after leaving Gucci in 2006, began his first creative tenure with a bang, recruiting famed photographer Annie Leibovitz to shoot a five series campaign highlighting the different facets of the reinvented dunhill man. Starring models Tara Ferry, Andrew Cooper, and Norbert Michalke, the campaign features dunhill’s AW14 offering: an international collection inspired by the luxury of traveling. See how Leibovitz’s interpreted Ray’s vision in the behind the scenes video below. Leather accessories (unfortunately) not included.
