Does anyone know who makes them?
I tried on a couple of Drake's new jackets in their Clifford St shop. Style-wise they're slightly unstructured: Not in the slouchy, cardigan-like sense as they're quite neatly tailored at the waist. The shoulders are soft, but more built up than, say, Boglioli's shoulders.
In all, fitting with the "English style interpreted by Italians" aesthetic Drakes says it's aiming for.
There's a lovely soft green tweed which caught my eye, as well as a navy and a grey jacket in similar fabric. The bolder checks are slightly too bold for my wardrobe, though they are beautiful.
I was very impressed. We all have very different ideas of what a "perfect jacket" should be and these are pretty close to what I'm looking for (it helps that the fit suits me very well). They are pricey, starting at £995. I imagine you can get a good MTM or even bespoke for that.
