New Argyll Jacket for Warm Climates !

**Ancienne Alliance** · 19th February 11, 06:56 AM

Lady Chrystel was recently approached by a gentleman who wished a lighter version of the Argyll jacket for summer.

Here are the pictures of the construction of a light summer Argyll and waistcoat for warmer climates. Ideal for California, Texas, Florida, etc.

Best,

Robert

Wow! Wow! and thrice Wow! To my non fashion eye it looks to have an Edwardian look to it, with its high cut waistcoat and the three button jacket. Well done!

Very nice looking jacket! I especially lime the collars.

Fabulous! Not much else to say. Simply fabulous.

That is stunning... Love the lift in the lapels. Unique I think.

(I love the picture with the spectacles and thimble. You have a great eye for a good photograph Robert.)

Excellent tailoring!

What type of fabric is it? Lightweight, I'm assuming...

Splendide !

The fabric is a polyester-viscose-wool blend, but we are looking for even lighter fabric like linen-silk...

The lapels will naturally settle down in a few weeks and have a more conventional look. I took the garments straight from Chrystel's working table and just didn't want to flatten them down myself... I'll leave that to the happy customer.

Best, and thank you all for your kind words.
