Hawes & Curtis Returns to Its Roots with the 1913 Collection

There aren’t many names in British menswear that carry the weight of Hawes & Curtis. Founded on Jermyn Street in 1913, the label has dressed generations of men who understand the quiet power of a well-cut suit. This autumn, the brand returns to its tailoring roots with the launch of its 1913 Collection for Autumn/Winter 2025 — a line that reaffirms what it does best: timeless British style with a touch of European refinement.

The new collection fuses the rigour of Savile Row precision with the ease of Italian craftsmanship. Suits are constructed using fabrics from some of the most respected mills in Europe — Reda, Vitale Barberis Canonico, and Lanificio Angelico — each bringing a different texture and weight to the range. It’s an approach that keeps things classic without feeling dated, and luxurious without tipping into excess.

Standout pieces include the Tailored Fit Olive Suit in Super 120s flannel wool, the kind of quietly confident option that works as well with a merino roll-neck as it does under a camel overcoat. The Dark Blue Stripe Suit channels heritage businesswear through a modern lens — sharp but not stiff — while the Double-Breasted Taupe Herringbone is pure understated elegance, the kind of piece that feels as right in the boardroom as it does at a dinner party.

While the Italian fabrics bring sophistication, there’s still plenty of British grit in the mix. The brand has sourced materials from Abraham Moon & Sons, one of Yorkshire’s most storied mills, as well as authentic Harris Tweed from the Outer Hebrides. It’s a reminder that Hawes & Curtis isn’t chasing trends — it’s refining what already works.

More than a revival, the 1913 Collection is a statement of purpose. After more than a century of shirt-making and tailoring, the brand continues to evolve by focusing on what matters: impeccable fit, fabric integrity, and a sense of polish that never shouts. For men who appreciate subtlety and craft, Hawes & Curtis is once again making a strong case for the suit.

The 1913 Collection is available now in-store and online at hawesandcurtis.co.uk, with prices starting from £449.
