British workwear has featured on the fashion landscape for some time.

John Lewis & Co has gone one step further with a waistcoat cut from cloth woven by Abraham Moon (established 1837) – one of the UK’s most historic wool mills. It is crafted from 100 per cent wool and looks perfect with loose-fit crumpled work pants, chambray shirts and unstructured lightweight blazers.
