Everyone’s favorite men’s online boutique is striking out on its own. Mr. Porter has launched its very own menswear line, Mr. P.
The pieces in the new collection are designed by their in-house team and is inspired by well-dressed men of the future and from the past. The luxury retailer describes Mr. P as “… a range of clothes that we ourselves have always wanted: stylish, yet understated; simple, but full of the small touches that matter; affordable, but made to the highest standards.”
The collection will be updated five times a year with seasonal staples. Chock full of simple, clean and classic designs, if you had to gut your closet and begin again, Mr P. would be the place to start.
We’ve combed through the sharp and stylish collection and picked our 10 favorite pieces for fall and winter.
