Coats from Left to Right, Top to Bottom; Waugh, White, West, Toklas, Elizabeth I, Elizabeth II, de Beauvoir, Beckett
Eloise Grey’s tweed collection continues the writers’ theme. Style such as the Elizabeths, Beckett and de Beauvoir have been reintroduced. The Elizabeths both look great for every-day use and well as formal occasions.
An absolute favourite is the de Beauvoir. It’s a perfect example of combining a little urban chic with country rusticity so you get full use and feel rather wonderful at the same time. Tweed, rather like denim, is long-lasting, practical and a little amour develops over time.
New to this collection are jackets and skirts. The two skirts combine elegance with rural practicality. They are both cut in a flattering pencil skirt shape which is fitted and feminine, yet have nice large pleats which allow proper movement. Eloise Grey plays homage to Virago Modern Classics writers, Rebecca West and Antonia White with these new skirts.
The new jackets, Toklas and Waugh are both inspired by photographs of these writers in the 1930’s. Neatly fitted and available in all tweeds, though Toklas
is perfectly suited to the Tattersal check, they have fine tailoring details such as bound buttonholes and pockets.
Eloise keeps a number of garments made up in stock so these can be ordered and arrive within a matter of days, alternatively they will be made up in the tweed of your choice and arrive within 28 days. All garments, whether from stock or made to order come with a full 28 day returns policy so consider it a saved journey to town and a sensible way of trying and buying from a small producer.
