Why our coats have no lining
Double-face wool, explained: two cloths woven as one, split by hand, sewn edge to edge.
A lining hides the inside of a coat. Double-face cloth has no inside: both faces are finished, so there is nothing to hide.
The cloth is woven as two layers joined by a binding thread. At the edges, our tailors cut that thread and fold each layer inward, then sew them together by hand.
The result is a coat that weighs a third less than a lined one and drapes like a blanket on the shoulders.
“Take the lining away and a coat stops being armour and starts being a blanket.”
It takes twice as long to make. Every seam is visible, so every seam has to be perfect.
We make three coats this way every season: camel, ink and rust. Look 08 on the runway is the camel.
Care is simple: brush after wearing, hang on a wide hanger, steam — never press.
