The Gieves & Hawkes Autumn Winter 2024 collection – “Onwards” – is inspired by the timeless tales of Antarctic exploration and adventure, and the rugged beauty of the landscapes traversed by those brave enough to embark upon it.
Drawing particular inspiration from the exceptional spirit of the British explorers Ernest Shackleton and Henry Worsley, this collection serves to honour their unwavering resilience, hope and desire to discover. Details, fabrics, and tones throughout the collection pay homage to these adventurers and the lands they set out to explore.
Subtle elements of cartography, jacquards and textures wind their way across the garments. Warm burgundy accents reminiscent of antique navigational tools add touches of history, whilst deep sea greens, rich browns and stormy greys transport you to the harsh Polar landscape and ever-shifting skies of unchartered territories. Soft, warm woollens evoke the feeling of a warm refuge amongst the wilderness, whilst bonded flannels and durable British cloths provide a sense of protection from the harshness of the Antarctic elements.
The Gieves & Hawkes Autumn Winter Collection tells a story of human resilience, bravery, and desire, encouraging you to find this spirit of adventure within yourself. With each piece you carry the legacy of earlier adventurers, and the reminder of the boundless potential of the world. Whilst the future remains an unknown entity, we all must find the strength to keep moving “Onwards”.
