A Tommy Nutter Thread

A good read. Much like the obit page of the Economist.

this is so sick sweet

Knew how to rock the tweed

Funny, no mention of Sexton there.

seems like a man who was right for his times (w/ a fiitng name). i always liked the n!pple pic of bianca & mick in the limo....

* maybe it was @ the altar?

Yes, I have. I have a Blazer from Nutters around here somewhere as well as a jacket in a brown herringbone tweed. I will long rue passing up a Tommy Nutter sb overcoat, cashmere w/ deep vent. It fit perfectly, but the thrift store wanted fifty bucks for it--which I considered outrageous. I thought it would hang around until the five dollar sale. I was wrong.

btw, am I right to recall that there were at least two incarnations here? The first, Nutters, was the partnership w/ Edward Sexton; Tommy Nutter came later, I think. It also cheers me to see mention of Donaldson, Williams & Ward.

I think I saw a Nutter at Pitti Palace this summer in the men's and women's fashion retrospective. It was very interesting to see it placed in historical context, or any context for that matter.

You should be whipped mercilessly for passing this up...at the thrift store for heaven's sake. Even at today's exchange rates...a bargain

Cool thread. A fitting tribute to a man who made cool threads.

I've sold a couple Nutters.

One was from the classic Nutter/Sexton period.

Even in blue flannel, the silhouette was singular.

Lastly, let us not forget one great, late-career Nutter client:

I'm relieved to know I wasn't making it up. Unfortunately, I think the Nutter was placed in "historical perspective" by sticking it next to an Armani from the '80s as an illustration of the evolution of the men's suit. I guess even in Florence they can't all be Liverano & Liverano.
