Turn it up on the inside


Hunt & Winterbotham have sent through a bunch book of Linings to complement their range of classic wool fabrics. 

The following is taken from the introduction of the bunch book.

"One of the unique characteristics that sets a bespoke garment apart form an off-the peg alternative, is your choice of lining fabric. Inside the jacket or on the back of a waistcoat, it's a little secret between you and your tailor; an opportunity to add a striking flash of colour or a perfectly co-ordinated print."








The linings are all woven in Italy in either Rayon Curpo, Viscose or a Viscose/Acetate blend.
