| Place of origin |
Daniel Silver and Steven Cox formed American fashion label Duckie Brown in 2001 to challenge the staid appearance of traditional menswear. Their collections are based around tailored jackets and trousers, such as those of this ensemble. While grounded in classic tailoring, Duckie Brown's approach is light-hearted: this ensemble's bold colour palette of yellow, red and turquoise and the oversized clip-on tie illustrates Duckie Brown's whimsical approach.
