A David James Gandy Blog in Vogue

'Pin Collar Shirts' have not only made it onto the back of super model and British fashion ambassador David James Gandy but also got a generous mention in his blog for Vogue. Below is an excerpt of that article:

"One thing I really appreciate about LC:M is the platform it provides for young designers and the opportunities that come with that - and I'm not just talking about those who get to show. I hosted an evening in the Hospital Club for young designers and students and some of the talent was incredible. I was genuinely taken aback by the talent we have - it bodes so well for the future of British design and of LC:M.

I went to personally thank Alice Walsh from Alice Makes This - who was exhibiting at Victoria House - for sending me another wonderful pair of handcrafted cuff links for the week's events. While talking to Alice, I also met Carl Thompson. Carl runs Pin Collar Shirts, something that I was wearing on the second day, along with the suit and overcoat that I designed in collaboration with Neil Fennel. I was highly impressed with the quality of Carl's shirts and the two things he wants to excel in are quality and customer service. He certainly had me sold and I have a few new collar pin shirts being made for me as I write."
