Seeing Led

“Stick with the upper half.” Disappointing thing to hear in the bedroom. But great advice if you’re, say, really good at making shirts.

Hence, Ledbury’s Tailored Collection, a polished new line of Southern-styled blazers and sport coats to compliment the company’s casually refined dress shirts.

Moving from cotton to virgin wool, the Collection’s blazers and sport coats feature fabrics sourced from some of Italy’s finest mulit-generational mills (Loro Piana, Vitale Barberis Canonico, and Fratelli Tallia Di Delfino), with soft shoulders, double vents, and non-boxy fits.

Among the highlights: a blue and brown Hanover check, Huxley coats in muted rust, grey, and brown, a sleek blue Paton, a comfy grey Herringbone, and a luxe cerulean Loro Piana slim-fit.

Starting prices run $595-$795. Pair ‘em with any one of Ledbury’s “short run” line of shirting, a batch of limited-edition tops available for only 30 days at a time that play with different fabric and style templates.

There’s apparently a lot of fun things you can do with the upper half.
