The London Lounge

Hi guys,

Im currently working on two lounge linen jackets that I thought I'd share, the Camo and RAF blue.





Thanks

Karl Matthews

Both look great so far. The green looks very good.

I thought you were doing a Camo as a DB? ever happen?

Cheers

Michael

Michael,

You seem to lean a bit toward the green example. I'm curious, what do you look for? Roping? Lapel roll? (Or do you just like green? )

Educate me, please.

Regards,
John

Great work, Mr. Matthews. The camo linen looks surprisingly fresh when made up compared to seeing it as a swatch. I look forward to the finished garments. Your work is decidedly some of the best I've seen coming out of the Row lately. Keep it up!

Hi Michael

I'd love to make one for myself but I just seem to be making them for everyone else at the moment

Well I'll second Mr Groot's comment, you're making some great clothes for everyone else at the moment. Do post your Camo DB , if you ever get around to it. And keep us up to date on your NY trip. I am sure quite a few LLers would like to see you there.

Cheers

John,

Both of these linens come from the LL linen book. I have seen the RAF blue made up many times and it is wonderful. But I had never seen the Camo green made up. And I think the color looks great. So I suppose I do like green but in this case I was just curious about green.

Cheers

Michael

Got it, thank you, Michael.

Best,
John

Camo shade of green looks wonderful. I really like the line of the coats posted by Mr. Matthews.
So Camo next spring

Everything is still running to schedule. We will be at the Kimberley Hotel on the 4th and 5th October and as ever look forward to meeting any LL members who fancy popping in to see us.

Ill be posting the finished linen jackets soon.

Hi All,
