Century-Old Craft, Reimagined: dunhill’s SS25 Collection
After over 130 years, dunhill continues to craft some of the finest-quality, most thoughtfully designed menswear around. This has never been truer than in the maison's SS25 collection — the second under the creative direction of Simon Holloway. With a rich legacy in elegant, classically British menswear, Holloway's influence is on full display in this collection.
dunhill’s SS25 offering is a discerning fusion of function and form, featuring luxuriously soft suede Trail jackets and tailored pieces that perfectly balance drape and structure. Drawing on heritage silhouettes, the collection feels entirely fitting for the dressier, more classically inclined moment menswear is finding itself in as we move into the new year. This heritage-leaning but contemporary approach is especially clear in the reinventions of classic pieces, such as louche trench coats crafted from fine merino wool and topcoats made with innovative weaving techniques for enhanced weatherproofing.
For over a century, dunhill has refined its ability to deliver clothing that helped cement Britain as a pioneer in tailoring design. Rooted in craftsmanship and a deep dedication to fine leather goods — a legacy started by the brand's eponymous founder, Alfred Dunhill — the brand has consistently innovated upon the foundations of his work, first in leather saddles and later in the burgeoning motor industry. This commitment to excellence remains a cornerstone of the house’s DNA. In SS25, this legacy takes form in Century, a collection of smooth calfskin leather goods, which the brand describes as “the ultimate imagining of past, present, and future.”
