Raw Silk Jacket Inspiration

Henley-on-Thames is a town on the River Thames in Oxfordshire, England, which is world-renowned for rowing. Each summer, the town hosts the famous Henley Royal Regatta, which is where Joe draws inspiration from for the 'Paperbark Henley' Raw Silk Jacket.

Taking the vertical lines of the traditional blazer worn at the Henley Royal Regatta, the 'Paperbark Henley' is a classically striking piece. The paperbark element is introduced through the natural tones and texture of the handwoven raw silk. A balanced take on modern and traditional, this wonderful jacket is a strong addition to any wardrobe.
