Clé

A small house whose book turns with the seasons

Clé is one of the smaller houses in our cloth library. It comes to us without a founding date or a famous valley, and we would rather leave that page blank than fill it in ourselves. What it brings is cloth, in a book that changes with the seasons.

That turnover is part of its charm. The great houses give us the backbone of the range, cloth we can reorder for years. The smaller houses keep the library moving, and what is on the shelf this season may be gone by the next. If a length catches your eye at a fitting, that is the moment to claim it.

You will not find Clé on our product pages. Its cloth is chosen at the table, held against the brief in front of us.

A small house earns its shelf the same way the famous ones do: the cloth has to make the garment better. Clé goes on earning its place. Ask for the current Clé book when you next come in.

The current book is best seen in person, laid over a shoulder in daylight.
