Selectism - monsieur-lacenaire-reversible-sweater-01

If you know anything about Selectism, you should know we’re the Harry Redknapp of menswear. We can’t turn down a 2 for 1 deal, especially when it’s by one of our favourite new brands Monsieur Lacenaire. They’ve made this reversible jumper which, before anyone asks, counts as a 2 for 1 offer. And hey, we’ve all seen the news, if you’re gonna spend money on new stuff it might as well be stuff you can turn inside out and wear on consecutive days. Probably best not to attend any ‘Occupy’ protests with this on though, you might end up looking like the hipster cop. (Mr Porter)

Selectism - lacenaire-01

After discovering the joys of Monsieur Lacenaire during a trip to Copenhagen, we were instantly smitten by the playful joy of knitted varsity jackets and plackets that metamorphose into scarves.

Selectism - monsieur-lacenaire-autumn-2011-01

One of the highlights from our trip to Copenhagen last week was new knitwear brand Monsieur Lacenaire. The designer Garance Broca, who worked at Hermes for three years, took her knowledge to make knitwear that’s classic and subtly subversive. Which means they’ve got knitted varsities’ (like the one you see above), cardigans with plackets that turn into scarves and other little twists that show off a slight edge in knitting know how. Made in the same factories she visited during her time in Hermes, the collection uses Alpaca (both regular and the baby kind) and Italian merino for the wools, making everything in France. Our favourite piece? Has to be that knitted varsity. You can expect to see them in Colette, among other stores, come next winter.
