Entry Level.





So. I decided this a couple of months back after much thought.
Just a bit of background - I graduated from university two years ago with a degree in how to be an ‘Ad man’. Spent 6 months in Amsterdam working in an ad agency. Moved back to London and started working in the east-end at a menswear outfitters and am still here at present.
I’ve got a serious thing for vintage menswear dating from the mid 50s through to the early 70s. Not only that, I’m fascinated with the origins of style and the way individuals and sub-cultures take these elements upon themselves in order to form an identity, be it for the first time or with an element of nostalgia. 
I plan to use this blog as personal platform to share the steps I take, right or wrong, in order to start up my own menswear collection in time for a S/S 13. Alongside this I will be sharing some of my inspiration, ideas and thought processes behind what I’m going to be doing.
Feel free to follow, read and maybe even learn something - I know I will.
