Albert

You probably already know it, it's our essential blazer from the Mister k. wardrobe, now among our iconic cuts, I quote: our Albert blazer (almost internationally renowned since 2018).

Let me tell you his story…

As you know, I am a trained stylist ( graduated from Studio Berçot in Paris ) and deep down I have had countless obsessions for many years.

The first one that concerns us today, that of the quest for the perfect blazer... how many shops had I scoured for ages to find the volume, the ideal cut, at a reasonable price (otherwise you can imagine that if my finances allowed me I would have gone straight to a tailor at the time). So a flash back to a few years ago, daring to launch myself by creating my ideal wardrobe, starting by making THE most desirable blazer possible, at the right price, at the same time elegant and at the same time which could be worn without ever getting tired of it.

“Albert had to see the light of day, it was obligatory!”

The cut:
Once my design was complete, it was with Jean Michel, our talented Parisian pattern maker with whom I have worked for 15 years, that we set about this difficult task in October 2018: developing our perfect cut. Months later, after many adjustments, toiles mounted, dismantled, reassembled, Albert was there before our dazzled eyes!

No, you're not dreaming. At Mister K, we develop ALL our models ourselves, from the design to the canvas.

Let's dive into our detailed choices. Our 4-button double-breasted blazer features two piped pockets, giving it a touch of elegance. Its fitted shoulders and slightly flared hem are our secret to a stunning look.

Last but not least, since his design, Albert has come a long way, from woolen cloths, houndstooth, navy crepes, smooth or ribbed velvets, there is however one version that was missing from his list of achievements... the sumptuous BLACK satin-backed crepe, woven in Italy, it will be done on Thursday!

Finally, everything is in the subtle finishes for us; we have chosen a magnificent Italian striped lining, woven in Italy, and timeless tone-on-tone "horn effect" buttons , made in France.

In short, Albert has everything of the greatest, enough to make the dandies of Savile Row pale!

To reserve this new version of Albert in exceptional Italian black crepe, please contact us this Thursday (January 25) at 9 a.m. by email.

Take care of yourself above all and strongly.
