Checking out the AW16 Diamond G collection by GANT

London is incredible...full stop. For some time now if you follow me on Instagram, you would have noticed that I'm trying to incorporate London's weird and wonderful architecture into my photoshoots, mixing in a little bit of fashion. Often if you just walk around, you'll bump into some incredible architecture, often in random places. During this shoot Ella and I headed off on a quiet Sunday evening to the Barbican when the sunlight is softer leading to these incredible images. During this shoot I was wearing an outfit predominantly made up with pieces from the GANT Diamond G collection for AW16.

Diamond G by GANT is inspired by the cosmopolitan lifestyle and the iconic shirt, this collection gives an effortless and understated confidence to the wearer when going straight from desk to dinner. The GANT Diamond G collection is about versatile tailoring, travel-friendly pieces, and elegant off-duty clothing – creating options for every occasion throughout the week.

Starting off with the GANT clothing, I'm wearing their white classic Oxford Shirt which the fit was quite forgiving, I would say somewhere between a really slim fit design and a classic regular fit. I'm then wearing the Diamond G travel suit in navy. As you can imagine, you want a travel suit to crease as little as possible and this suit is 100% wool, sourced from Italy and features a crease-resistant finish that is ideal for travelling. The leather & nylon hold-all bag is durable, lightweight and stylish, perfect for heading off for a long weekend. My final GANT Diamond G piece are the navy suede gloves, super soft wool lining and a perfect alternative to their leather friends. I've then finished off the outfit with a couple of pieces that I have had for a couple of years which are a pair of black brogues and a lightweight navy trench coat.
