This classic gun club check, all wool worsted is a slightly heavier weight than standard suiting weight worsteds, making it ideal for sports jackets and traditional smart country attire. But Winter Landscape - Worsted Alsport (Gun Club Check) has a traditional appeal which can be easily incorporated into quirky Brit style designs that are just as popular now as they were when fabrics like this were first manufactured.
Winter Landscape was woven by a British manufacturer who hold Royal warrants to this day and have associations with the British Royal Family since The Prince of Wales gave his name to that eponymous monochrome district check.
Designer labels don't always guarantee quality, but the finely woven selvedge ribbon on this impeccable wool 'jacketing' is the real deal! (See the last photo for a closeup). The expertly woven twill and gun club checked design boasts a palette of cool blue grey colours like a winter landscape of tall snow topped, misty mountains and rocky rivers with cool blue rushing torrents.
Winter Landscape boasts a medium-light weight, often referred to as jacketing weight. This all wool worsted is stable, closely woven and has a lovely soft yet reassuringly warm drape quality.
Winter Landscape will of course make fabulous winter suits, jackets trousers and skirts but think outside the box and create vintage style pinafore dresses with darted empire waistlines and feminine wiggle skirts ~ team with pretty white peter pan collar blouses for a demure look or closely fitted fine sweaters for a super stylish Mad Men inspired look.
If something a little more edgy is more your style then play around with bias cutting for a 'Viv Westwood' look. This impeccably woven classic may look traditional but classics are just that for a reason.
