Leonard Logsdail has got in on the MTM/RTW market...

Russell Plaid (R.P) is his signature cloth this season, apparently.
The ol' Russell (that's Plaid, not Street ) seems to be everywhere at the mo. I saw a R.P covert style coat in Crombie. I have also seen a rather dandified R.P 3 piece suit, complete with double breasted waistcoat and velvet trimmed throat latch in Gieves & Hawkes.
We seem to be entering, or have entered a new age of dandyism...
Good stuff...
I was less than impressed with LL's work. This is a much easier way to make a buck, which is his primary interest.
Crombie has offered Russell Plaid jackets as part of its standard range for a few years.
A lot of these houses you just cant compare with each other, I don't think tailoring is like a sport. Comparing them in this way is a bit like "the worlds deadliest warrior" which is a stupid show.
