becoming longer and hotter and our winters are becoming colder. If last year’s winter is anything to go by, we’re probably in for more of the same - or even worse. The newspapers are predicting four months of snow from November! Whatever’s happening weather wise, though, worry not - we’ve got it covered. From January to April this year, we were very busy collating what we believe to be the best ever autumn/winter collections for you, our loyal customers. Now the weather is turning colder and the days are getting shorter - not to mention darker - we have an amazing selection of beautiful pieces to make the most of the elements during this time of year. Most people agree that the best part of winter is dressing for it; a time when you can cocoon yourself in your favourite cashmere sweater or winter coat, giving you a sense of well-being and comfort. The beauty of shopping at Jules B is that, as an independent, we have the advantage of cherry-picking the best pieces from the best collections, effectively editing everything for you and saving you the time and trouble. We understand our customers and always try to find new and exciting products and brands to make shopping more exciting. Our ethos has always been product first, brand second. Everything we choose has to pass certain criteria of style, quality and, above all, value for money. In September this year we were honoured to receive the prestigious Lifetime Achievement Award at the Drapers Independents Awards - a wonderful ceremony in London, presented in recognition of our services to the fashion industry over the past 33 years. Past recipients have included Joan Bernstein (Browns) and Tom and Ruth Chapman

“You get a feeling from our customers that they have a real love for the brand.,” says Caroline Belhumeur. “You meet people and they’ll tell you about such and such a sweater they’ve lived in for years. That’s the kind of trust that’s very hard for any brand to generate if your customers don’t have it for you [as a result of their experience].” Belhumeur is the creative director of the Los Angeles-based men’s and women’s clothing line Vince. And what’s perhaps remarkable about the enthusiasm she has encountered since joining the company two years ago, to give it a refresh, is that Vince makes what the fashion industry likes to refer to as ‘basics’ - those simple, often plain garments that form the foundation of the way you dress but which, historically at least, are hard to get too excited about. It’s why Vince - which was founded in 2002 by Rea Laccone and Christopher LaPolice - describes itself as product-led rather than aimed at any par ticular shopper. “I think the demand for quality basics has a lot to do with the way we dress now,” says Belhumeur, a Brit who trained at Kingston University before taking a position with Calvin Klein in New York. “The world’s changing - we wear much the same clothing at work as we do at the weekend or when we go out. And we want comfor t. You notice the difference especially in women’s work clothing - we’ve all
“Th e fo cus i s o n ‘n i c e ’ bec a u s e Vince ’s ang l e i s to ma ke basi cs i n an upm arket, eve n l uxu ri ou s way with em pha sis on f i t an d m ate r ials”

stopped wearing suits and trying to be uptight. There’s now a sense that it’s OK to wear a nice sweater and feel put together.” The emphasis here perhaps is on ‘nice’ - because Vince’s angle is to make basics in an upmarket, even luxurious way, with the emphasis on fit and materials - a hoodie is likely to be in cashmere, for example, a blouse in silk or a t-shir t in a super-soft organic cotton; “and there’s so much development in fabrics and yarns now that we have more ways of pushing basics on,” explains Belhumeur. There is clearly some demand for this too. Although the company has remained comparatively less well-known for most of its history - a product of being sold through depar tment stores for much of that time - and hasn’t been without its troubles as it’s grown, Vince’s very first collection garnered $9.5m of orders. At one point in its history, the company was valued at well over $1bn. More recently the brand has begun to create more fashionforward pieces - “in interesting shapes,” as Belhumeur puts it - that can be layered or draped over the basics. If the basics tend towards a neutral colour palette, the fashion pieces play with bolder shades too. “The fact is that you feel more put together if you’re wearing a really good version of a basic garment. But, while

“ These are just the k ind of clothes that we all tend to want to put on every day” we focus on the basics, we’re also about giving customers something more interesting to pair with them,” says Belhumeur. That can be especially impor tant in Vince’s world because it gives customers ideas as to how basics might be dressed up. “But it’s not really about even calling them basics anymore,” she adds. “These are just the kind of clothes that we all tend to want to put on every day if we can now.” That easy way of dressing might be counted as distinctly Californian too - as opposed to the cut and thrust of power playing New York. It might not be skater style or hippie chic - the golden state’s biggest contributions to style. But there is in Vince - which opened its first store in LA in 2008 and now has some 50 across the US - a cer tain mode of relaxation, albeit more upscale than usual for the west coast. The new season women’s collection takes inspiration from the work of Milton Avery and Barbara Hepwor th, with a 70s feel to the choice of colours - sandalwood, rose and copper in par ticular - and fabrics, among them shearling and boucle. Lightweight tur tlenecks, pleated dresses and cropped culottes all feature alongside those essential, cultural boundary-busting, go-anywhere, everywoman, Gapfor-grown-ups t-shir ts, sweats and knitwear pieces. Those are the garments it’s all too tempting to buy multiples of. And people often do. “I do think there’s an interesting story in being a luxury clothing brand from California, which has that coastal lifestyle image, that vision of sunshine and good vibes,” suggests Belhumeur. “LA is very much a creative city - it built its success on making things - movies or music. It’s not built on the finance industry. Fashion design here has been more under the radar but that just adds to the interest. It’s more unexpected, more rebellious. And I love that.”

HA L EY B L A D E S
Wom e n s we a r B u ye r When it comes to choosing a winter wardrobe, as much as I like to stay fashion forward, keeping cosy and warm is always a priority of mine. At the top of my list this season is this luxurious red mid length coat by Froccella. With a lustrous two-toned fur-trim hood and flattering slim fit silhouette, it’s a piece that will keep you snug and stylish all season long. Close second, are the blue ‘Icons’ boyfriend jeans by Tommy Hilfiger. Check out their signature side trim for a flash of sports-luxe! They go perfectly with a punchy pair of white sneakers for a cool day-time look and are ready to be dressed up with some sexy heels for the perfect after work drinks ensemble. As far as essentials go, I can’t get enough of our Rag & Bone basics. Once you try on one of these super soft basics, there’s no going back! The red London turtleneck is a particular favourite of mine. It’s vital to keep skin hydrated in winter and give a nod to the environment, so this stylish water bottle from S’well, that will keep water cool for up to 24hrs and your essential morning coffee warm for up to 12hrs, will be your new best friend. As far as bags go, this season I love the pebbled leather Canteen crossbody from Michael Kors. This perfectly sized bag will fit all the essentials for a winter city break during the colder months. And for tramping the streets in those cities you get the best of both worlds with the cool Pamela fur-trim wedge boots from Kanna. Super snuggly, kind to your feet and pretty smart to step out in.

emancipated and does not require a designer label to give her a sense of identity or belonging, she is more focused on comfor t, wearability, quality and of course style.” Crea Concept is typical of Zen styling, with layering at its hear t: “Layering the look is very much a par t of the style we are promoting - an elegantly casual look that works equally well with a pair of signature trainers as it does a pair of heels or chunky boots. We always say it’s how a woman carries herself as much as the clothes she is wearing, a simple outfit can look ultra luxurious if worn with confidence.”
Pieces introduce edgy innovative styles and these work perfectly with a well-edited wardrobe. The range features slouchy sweaters and comfor table tunics that are easily dressed up with heels, bags and jewellery. Crop sweaters look fabulous layered over tunics and skinnies while abstract-print dresses and tops bring drama to any-day dressing. The brand is timeless and elegant with a Parisian feel – definitely piled high with laid-back luxe appeal. Beautifullycut dresses and culottes can be dressed down with chunky boots for a statement style – and the season’s colour palette is flattering with bold accent pieces. Crea Concept lies at the hear t of the Zen philosophy of dressing which is so perfectly executed by Jules B’s Rhona Blades. She created Zen to satisfy the demand of a very par ticular type of woman who has been shopping at Jules B for many years. As she says, “The Zen woman is quietly confident,

O w n e r & Wo m e n s we a r B u ye r Autumn/winter collections are when clothes really come into their own. They bring statement winter coats, a new pair of boots and a party season that tempts us towards luxurious textures, playful pieces and exciting accessories. I adore this gorgeous High jacket. The lovely fit-and-flare effect adds something of the daring dandy, making it a piece you can really wear with a flourish. It will definitely dress up your denims and flatter the figure with its neat styling. The soft silk blouse is from Vince, a brand making waves with timeless but beautifully crafted pieces that are the ulimate in dress-up-dress-down wardrobe essentials. The Vince colour palette is restful and effortless - pieces will become instant favourites in your wardrobe for their versatility, and pared-back elegance. These skinnies from Annette Gortz are a fun fashion choice and a favourite of mine, literally making a statement with their worldly script from hip to ankle. We have to add in some cashmere this season and this 360 Sweater is perfectly on point with its talking-point design. Finally, to accessorise, I love these striking blue boots from Le Pepe and bold bracelet from Nouv-Elle.

The Drapers Awards reward those businesses that are changing the landscape of fashion, and the Lifetime Achievement Award itself is undoubtedly one of the highest accolades in the industry. For the team at Jules B, it’s not only a reward for hard work, it sets the bar high for another successful year in business. “Gaining this prestigious achievement in the fashion world makes us reflect on the business and how it has grown. A dynamic, design-led brand that has come a long way since its launch - and whilst always keeping one eye on what the future holds, now is a fantastic time to sit back and soak it all up.

“There are plenty of men who think it’s smar t to buy three or four shir ts for £100 - but they’re not nice shir ts and they don’t feel good,” argues Peter Jüriado. “Of course, society has got practical in the way it shops. But I think men who shop with that mindset need a good shir t explained to them. Thankfully, there’s also an opposite reaction. And the people who buy our shir ts understand what we’re doing.” Jüriado is the head of design for Stenströms - not a well-known brand, it’s never theless been a shir tmaker in Sweden since 1899, when it was founded in Helsingborg by August Stenström. It was in the family until the 1970s, when it was sold to what would become another family business - Anders Bengtsson, the current owner, took over from his father. In its homeland, Stenströms, operators of Scandinavia’s largest shir t factory, has two Royal Warrants - from both the king and the queen - and, you could argue, the brand is something akin to the shir ting equivalent of Volvo. “Or perhaps a Mercedes or an Audi,” Jüriado quickly adds. “The point is that we’re at the dependable quality level. It’s not super-luxury - you have to be very careful about how you wash and wear those kind of shir ts. What we make is a shir t that works. It’s one you can wear seven days a week”. That’s not simply to speak to its durability, though the build quality of Stenströms shir ts is undoubted. There are the cloths, made in Italy, including the likes of Supima and Sea Island cottons, because they have a touch that can’t be replicated. The top range shir ts from the 1899 collection have an impressive density of stitching - nine per cm,
“ The buttons alone are a story in themselves” compared with a more industry standard of seven. They have hand-fitted sleeves, split yokes, French seams - so the shir t looks as well-finished from the inside as the outside and Australian mother of pearl buttons. The buttons alone are a story in themselves. The holes hand-made, the button then polished, coated, then sewn on and secured using a machine that melts an elastic around

O w n er & M e n s we a r B u ye r This is the time of year when you can really indulge yourself. These are a few of the pieces I’ll be treating myself to this season: Corduroy is back with a vengeance and this beautiful LBM orange jacket will look fantastic with some Jacob Cohen jeans. If you want to get ahead, get a hat, and there is nothing better than the Stetson Hatteras to give your outfit that touch of style, try one and you’ll be hooked. In my opinion Magnanni produces the finest double monk shoes there are and these elegant tan suede beauties really complement this outfit but look equally as stunning when worn with a grey flannel suit. LBM not only produce the finest tailoring, their knitwear is amazing too and this chunky but very lightweight and incredibly soft luxurious roll neck will finish the outfit off to a T. Oh, and don’t forget this Paul Smith wallet when you’re splashing the cash.

After a lifetime of exploring the art of fragrance, Paolo Vranjes turned his passion for perfume into practice - and his beautiful brand was born. The Dr Vranjes story started in Florence in 1983, when pharmacist, chemist and cosmetologist, Dr Paolo Vranjes, joined forces with his wife Anna Maria, and made their dream a reality by entering into the world of home fragrance. This was far from an overnight idea - his journey into the wonderful world of perfume began at an early age.
