These are our new Varsity jackets. They are fully reversible and feature the outer suiting fabric of your choice on one side combined with your choice of lining on the other. The sleeves are made from 100% Melton Wool on the "outer" side, satin on the "inner", and come in red or black.
We're once again taking part in Diptrics' Sales Week in Japan. Their beautiful showroom is set up at their premises in Aoyama, Tokyo's fashion centre. Here are some pics for you to check out. If you're eagle-eyed you may well spot a new House of Billiam garment. We'll give you an official look at that soon. For now, do enjoy the pics.
Skins series 4 is set to start this week and House of Billiam will once again be sported by the compelling JJ. We're obviously not experts on what is cool as weren't not teenagers, but we're reliably told by some teenagers that Skins is cool. JJ seems to like his enormous polka dots, and he wore them for the official Skins series 4 promo shoot.
We've got some new pictures on the site. Huge thanks to Anaïs Barelli our photographer and of course Pierre, Manu, Jean-Phillipe and Stella for modelling.
We've been working with the wonderful people at Diptrics who are taking care of our sales in Japan. We participated in their S/S 2010 Menswear showroom in August, and here are a few pics. You'll see House of Billiam in Tokyo stores before the end of October - details of which soon.
It's Autumn now so you might want to start wearing some fabrics around your neck to keep it warm. You could wear some really nice British suiting fabrics there if you bought one of our lovely scarves. For info just email us.
Tom likes getting up really early, which is as laudable as it is annoying when you have to get up at 5.30am on a Saturday to meet him cos he's not averse to an overnight coach to Paris.
While most people have been enjoying the sun we have been cowering away in our hovel in East London due to severe allergies... don't worry though, we like being pasty. We have not been feeling sorry for ourselves, instead we have been working on some new things for you to give us money for and soon you will be able to order your hoodie and choose from not only our standard cut but also this: the Eyles cut...
So, having been invited to donate to a cause, we find it difficult to say no. It was all a bit strange in the bottom of Shoreditch Town Hall with art from people I had heard of.
Have you seen our business cards? They look like this. They were designed by us on moo.com, which we highly recommend. Anyway, yes, these are our business cards.
