Hackett @ Spitalfields

Last night myself and Mr. Tee managed to get down to the opening of the new Hackett shop at Spitalfields, hosted by Individualism.

During the live music and merriment we managed to get a few shots of the store and what appears to be a new concept for the brand, adopting a country aesthetic to the already existent gentrified persona. Kudos on the mustachioed mannequins chaps.

The theme is pretty well established and the lodge-esque vibe is something most of us consumers have experienced in some form however, with a pool table on the lower ground floor you could easily be distracted from the Christmas shopping.




There's different direction on the clothing front from Hackett here too. The juxtaposition of established formal dress you would expect such as a midnight blue dinner jacket and grey flannel suits, with tattersall shirts, tweeds, corduroys and a wonderful selection of tartan strides. (What did I say about tartan!)

Meanwhile on the shop floor you can treat yourself to a new haircut to accompany the suitably smart attire. We had the pleasure of meeting Alex from Murdock London who was kind enough to impart a few tips for the best keep face fuzz this winter.


Below is what myself and Mr. Tee wore on the night, and the Hackett boys fully decked out and looking suitably spiffing!



We've kindly been invited back so look out for a more in-depth peak at the brand and concept in the new year!
