Ben Sherman: Not just a Name…

Ben Sherman
In 1963, Ben Sherman came back from America with the idea of making a button-down shirt. Having noticed the style adopted by polo players of the time who used the button-downs to keep their shirt collars where they should be whilst riding, he set about creating his own. Taking inspiration from his Fathers work as a tailor, he created an icon and this practical, yet stylish garment was soon adopted by a set of style leaders back in England.

                                         Ben Sherman‘s Spring/Summer 2012 collection.
Moving on from AW11’s theme of an Englishman in New York, Ben Sherman’s SS12 collection has been inspired by the journey from Brighton to Tokyo. Combining classic British design with the Japanese sensibility for style and innovation, we’ve produced a collection that fuses east and west to see wardrobe favourites reworked and restyled in original and unexpected fabrications.
