You may have spotted from some of my Instagram posts that I was working on some exclusive designs for Dutch Online store, Dutch Dandy...well the 3 Sets of Suspenders/Bretels and Bow Ties have officially launched on their website and are available to buy now.
Each set was designed around the Dutch Dandy customer's aesthetic and then given a W&W twist - quite literally in some cases!
I designed 3 Suspenders and 3 Bow Ties to be sold as sets and I am very excited to share imagery of them with you here.
Bow Tie: Light Blue Cotton with a Navy Cotton back
Bretels: Navy Blue Front Straps and a Light Blue Y stem.
Bow Tie: Navy and Light Blue Cotton Print Pattern
Bretels: Light Blue Front Straps and a contrasting Navy Blue Y stem
Which is your favourite?
We were so lucky with the weather for the little photoshoot, it was the first sunny day of the year and I chose a typical Amsterdam location, the Bloemengracht, a beautiful canal bridge right in the Jordaan neighbourhood.
Dutch Dandy provided the dapper models, Jorgen and Joost and they were awesome, patient, dandy and gents. My very own Joe shot the images as I tweaked and fitted and I am delighted with how they came out. You can see more detail shots on the Dutch Dandy website listings.
As with all W&W designs, there will only be 25 made of each one so they are all limited edition items and each set is available to buy now exclusively here
It's my very first brand collaboration so I'd love to know what you think.
