I don't need my Pringles in a can.

More and more I find myself more attracted to British Fashion. If I could go to any Fashion week, it would be London's. Every season I browse the list of Fashion Shows on GQ or Style for the season and get myself familiar with that line (I'm young and I do my research-don't judge me). Well, I clicked on Pringle of Scotland and got a pleasant surprise.

"Pringle of Scotland is a luxury knitwear manufacturer and importer. The brand is worn by the likes of Madonna, David Beckham, Nicole Kidman, Sophie Dahl, Claudia Schiffer, the television character Alan Partridge and British bands such as The Kooks, Dirty Pretty ThingsThe Twang. The company has stores in London’s Bond Street, Sloane Street and Bluewater Shopping Centre as well as in Japan and Taiwan and is sold by retailers in New York and Milan."


Men's Fall 2011

The Look: Cashmere, Cable knit, Fur, CHUNKY everything. You should know why I fell in love with it so quickly. The Wool sock with a leather  boot was done to the "T" in this collection as well.

"Robert Pringle established Pringle of Scotland in 1815 in the Scottish Borders and much of the company’s knitwear production still takes place today at their factory in Hawick. However, in common with an increasing number of British brands many products are outsourced to low-cost manufacturing countries overseas. Initially the company simply produced hosiery and underwear but Pringle have been producing cashmere since as early as 1870. Otto Weisz was appointed as the first full-time designer in the knitwear industry in 1934.The twinset and the signature Argyle pattern were designed under Weisz's creative direction, which became very popular with several celebrities and screen stars including Gene Simmons, Brigitte Bardot and Grace Kelly."
