Reiss

When it comes to our little black book of trusted British brands, Reiss is one name we continuously return to. Starting as a men's outfitters in Bishopsgate in 1971, this business is the golden child of owner-founder David Reiss, whose commitment to the brand is such that he remains at the helm to this day. Over the past fifty years, Reiss has established itself as a strong contender in the world of design-led attire, gaining a following that includes eminent public figures. The label draws on five decades of tailoring expertise to create exceptional garments in modern and versatile styles. Neat lines dominate Reiss's offering and accentuate the striking silhouettes and textures, such as smooth leather and soft merino wool. This selection is accented with subtle details like keyhole necks, contrasting cuffs and cleverly placed pleats. The consistent union of clean-cut design and impeccable quality makes combining Reiss's fashion pieces pleasingly straightforward. Try dressing up a relaxed-fit sweatshirt with sharply tapered cigarette trousers, or pair a silk-spun blazer with Italian leather trainers for an air of confident nonchalance. Reiss's accessories will bring the final flourish - a classic wool scarf or woven belt are timeless investments, after all.
