Old money

Tailored coats, pure cashmere, double faced wool, and loafers in navy, cream and camel.

Old money dressing centers on discreet tailoring, fine natural fabrics and unbranded pieces that signal quality through cut rather than logos. Wool, cotton, linen and cashmere in navy, grey and white keep the focus on the shape of each piece. Fit and balanced proportions count for more than novelty.

The look is a popular tag on TikTok, and its clothes borrow from the preppy dress of Ivy League colleges. Loro Piana, founded by Pietro Loro Piana in Quarona in northern Italy, began as a merchant of cashmere, vicuna, linen and merino cloth. Sunspel began making underwear in Nottingham, England, and its early cotton undershirts were made to stay cool in tropical heat.

Build the look on a tailored coat, pleated trousers, a collared shirt and leather loafers. WDLT117 in Toronto brings RUOHAN coats and jackets, Guidi loafers and derbies, and trousers from UJOH, Litkovska and Sulvam. Due West in Toronto brings Sunspel polos in Sea Island cotton and Mackage double face wool, and Utopia has pre owned Loro Piana.
