Henri Lloyd

Recently, I was introduced to Henri Lloyd, a clothing label from Manchester, England.

At a glance, Henri Lloyd is for the girl who spends more time with her horses or sailing her boat than she does on her fashion blog, but those two girls can both admire what Henri Lloyd has to offer-practicality, functionality, and longevity. The brand offers classic pieces that will stick with you throughout the years.

I took the time to create outfits around 4 different items from Henri Lloyd that are translatable into any style and could be found in any closet.

Now, that is just the way I would wear it.



About Henri-Lloyd
Henri-Lloyd, a British Sailing Heritage brand since 1963, founded by Henri Strzelecki MBE has established over five decades a formidable global reputation for innovative design and quality in sailing clothing. From the early days working from a converted chapel in Manchester, England the company pioneered technologies such as; the wonder material of the 1960’s Bri-Nylon, the hand taping of seams for waterproof integrity and strength, the first integral safety harness, use of Velcro in clothing and with the Swiss based company Riri® the worlds first non-corrosive zips. The early pioneers of circumnavigation such as Sir Francis Chichester, Sir Robin Knox-Johnson and Sir Ranulph Feines were all adopters of this revolutionary gear.

In the early 1980’s the Henri Lloyd world changed forever when the über cool Milanese scooter society the “Paninari” adopted the Henri-Lloyd Consort jacket as part of their uniform, the very jacket that Sir Francis Chichester had worn on his record breaking circumnavigation of the world.

Today, Henri-Lloyd is the choice of modern champions such as Ben Ainslie CBE, Shirley Roberson OBE, Team Origin – British America’s Cup Team, Round The World Yacht Race crews, as well as Brawn GP, MERCEDES GP PETRONAS and many current music bands, sports and media personalities.
