A-Line is a leather jacket brand. After previous ventures in fashion, I decided to create a collection evolving only around one product- leather jackets…an ever-growing love of mine. What inspires me, is that leather jackets last and become more unique and personal the longer you wear it…until it reaches true heritage status. My approach to design is timeless handcraft. A leather jacket should make you fall in love with it each time you wear it. I make the patchwork patterns myself and cut and sew the leather strips before handing everything over to our skilled London based manufacturer. Sourcing and production is entirely in the UK, making the process is a lot less wasteful and allowing me to use off-cuts and reusing leftovers. The leather is 100% lamb nappa, the lining 100% cotton quilting. All styles are open to interpretation, everyone sees a different thing in them. The wearer defines the styles and that is what I love. You wear it, you style it you make it yours.
