Together with Tommy Nutter, Sexton revolutionized the Row in 1969 with his rebellious, avant-garde house style: square shoulders, sweeping lapels, nipped waists and long, flared jackets that still impress today. With its structured lines, Sexton\u2019s tailoring is the perfect foil to Budd\u2019s elegant English-made shirts, which represent a timeless Jermyn Street style with a comfortable fit and firm, pointed collars. Each and every Budd shirt is lovingly cut on the top floor of the brand\u2019s quaint, mullion-windowed St. James\u2019s shop.<\/p>\n<p>At 15 years old, Gaziano &amp; Girling\u2014a shoemaker known for its striking designs and dexterous, comfortable lasts\u2014is the youngest brand in the collective.. Co-founders Tony Gaziano and Dean Girling are both Northampton shoemaking stalwarts, with healthy stints at all the best names in Goodyear-welted English footwear behind them. Bringing up the rear is E.B. Meyrowitz, a brand that exudes charm from every bespectacled pore. A bespoke eyewear specialist, Meyrowitz is known for hand-making flattering, well-proportioned opticals and sunglasses inspired by yesteryear\u2019s style icons with a modern fit and finish.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1234645458\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1234645458 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/robbreport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/gaziano.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/robbreport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/gaziano.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/robbreport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/gaziano.jpg?resize=150,84 150w, https:\/\/robbreport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/gaziano.jpg?resize=300,169 300w, https:\/\/robbreport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/gaziano.jpg?resize=768,432 768w, https:\/\/robbreport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/gaziano.jpg?resize=980,551 980w, https:\/\/robbreport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/gaziano.jpg?resize=640,360 640w, https:\/\/robbreport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/gaziano.jpg?resize=320,180 320w, https:\/\/robbreport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/gaziano.jpg?resize=660,371 660w, https:\/\/robbreport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/gaziano.jpg?resize=480,270 480w, https:\/\/robbreport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/gaziano.jpg?resize=960,540 960w, https:\/\/robbreport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/gaziano.jpg?resize=230,129 230w, https:\/\/robbreport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/gaziano.jpg?resize=184,103 184w, https:\/\/robbreport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/gaziano.jpg?resize=170,96 170w, https:\/\/robbreport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/gaziano.jpg?resize=600,338 600w, https:\/\/robbreport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/gaziano.jpg?resize=125,70 125w, https:\/\/robbreport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/gaziano.jpg?resize=110,62 110w, https:\/\/robbreport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/gaziano.jpg?resize=285,160 285w, https:\/\/robbreport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/gaziano.jpg?resize=800,450 800w\" alt=\"A pair of Gaziano &amp; Girling boots.\" width=\"1000\" height=\"563\" data-lazy-loaded=\"true\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">A pair of Gaziano &amp; Girling boots.\u00a0<span class=\"pmc-core-image-credit\">Gaziano &amp; Girling<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cWe all got talking last year about how we wanted to return from two years of no travel with a bang and reconnect with our US clients in a meaningful way,\u201d explains Sexton\u2019s creative director, Dominic Sebag-Montefiore. \u201cAfter such a long time unable to visit our American clients, there\u2019s a huge advantage to having a tailor, shirtmaker, shoemaker and spectacle-maker all in the same room together.
