Farrell

In-built authority

Born out of a desire to immortalise the legacy of his late grandad, Jack Farrell, Robbie Williams’ new clothing range represents the Stoke native's first foray into the fickle world of fashion. And from what we’ve seen so far, the man (who’s aliases included ‘Jack the Giant Killer’) would have been mighty proud.

Harnessing values and ideals embodied by his working class grandad, a notable dresser but, above all, a widely respected grafter in the Potteries community – Robbie’s created a range designed to corner the market as ‘quality clothes for the everyman’.

With no branding whatsoever on the outside of any of the garms, the collection prides itself on an in-built authority – something the Take That crooner himself commands on the music scene. Williams maintains the clothing ‘says something without being noticed’ , a parallel you wouldn’t always associate with the man himself.

Ranging from mod-influenced polos to sharply cut trousers and overcoats (topped off with a spotted silk scarf, of course) here lies a timeless range suitable for any occasion the week throws in your direction, from football stadium to snooker hall, Saturday night restaurant to Sunday morning market.

Have a glance at some of the pieces in our gallery; the collection is available now - starting at a very modest 35 quid.
