Street Moda English Laundry Video

English Laundry is the Wickedly Arrogant Line of Elegant yet Street Savvy Mens Shirts designed by the incredibly charming Christopher Wicks of Manchester England. Mr. Wicks says (tongue in cheek - we think) that Manchester England is the Center of the Universe. We can say that Manchester did give the design world a fabulous gift in the form of Christopher Wicks. His first full-time design opportunity came at the age of 22, when he became a designer of men's formal shirts for one of England's largest gentlemen's shirt manufacturers. The passion for stripes, collar shapes, pearl buttons and French cuffs that he gained during these early years has stayed with him throughout his career, which eventually led him away from gentlemen's apparel to the more in-demand realm of sportswear. His English Laundry brand is a collection of Vintage Inspired shirts unlike any other Mens Line. "Dead Smart" as Christopher calls the line - the whole concept behind English Laundry is Elegance, ARROGANGE and totally English! Each shirt is hand tailored and hand laundered for a gorgeous look and a fabulous fit. They are well know for their style, fit, comfort and durability. The fabrics used in the line are from Mr. Wicks personal collection of fine fabrics that he has been hoarding since the mid 1960's. The fabrics are all circa 1965 - 1978. European Influences and Tattoo Designs have become part of the inspiration for the recent introductions into the English Laundry Collection.. With English Laundry a man can have a new hand tailored shirt made of luxury vintage fabric without paying a personal shirt maker - the work is done and the style is Dead On! Wicks' passion for design was recently recognized by the Fashion Industry Guild of Cedars Sinai Medical Center as their 2010 "Man of the Year", an award that has previously been given to design luminaries such as Maurice Marciano of Guess and Dov Charney of American Apparel. Mr. Wicks also joined the board of trustees for Otis College of design and has been awarded the designer of choice by Otis for the year 2012 at a gala event on May 7, 2012.
