Tooling, as the name implies, is the garment that the laborer wears. This style gives people a feeling of roughness and deep love for the audience.
When one talks about tooling, many people's minds come out of American tooling. American-style tooling is just like Americans. It is free and unrestrained. It is mainly magnanimous on the type. Due to the influence of American culture, many people only know the American style when they mention tooling.
In fact, tooling in many countries has its own version and style. In addition to American, the most famous is the British style. The uncle who appeared in today’s article is based on English-style work clothes. His favorite is to travel around and collect ancient costumes from all ages to enjoy the original taste of clothing.
He is Nigel Cabourn.
Nigel Cabourn is already 69 years old this year and is a costume designer. His design style is "New vintage", which is inspired by vintage and restores the taste of clothing. His famous brand Nigel Cabourn is deeply loved by the old players.
His brand was founded in 1970, the last year of his college years. One thing he did all his life was to design and run the Nigel Cabourn brand. It was all his efforts.
There are three series of his brand, Authentic line, Main line, Lybro. Authentic line is produced in the United Kingdom. Production standards and materials are the highest standards, and strive to restore the most authentic British style. The main line is made in Japan. It is an affirmation of Japanese craftsmanship and production technology. The design is still responsible. It is only replaced by Japanese production. Lybro is a British brand and has now been acquired by Cabourn. It is made from fabrics from the United Kingdom and Japan. It is produced in Hong Kong and the price is relatively close to the people.
Well, the above is about the introduction of his brand, and then go on to become a brand introduction, we still say back to his collocation.
As a designer based on ancient style, the usual style is of course retro style. His retro mix does not have a fixed set of framed frames. For example, if the original cow wants to curl up and wear boots, he will not notice that these phenomena will appear on his body. His collocation will add his own understanding and he will be more inclined to leisure. a little.
Bib
Retro style continues to rise, many clothes will re-enter everyone's attention, bib is one of them. But bib pants have a very fatal drawback, that is, it will be very short, and dress up will definitely become a hobbit, not to mention all kinds of inconvenience when going to the toilet.
Nigel Cabourn particularly likes to wear bib pants. On his instagram, he can see the figure of bibs everywhere, and his mix does not have a flavor.
Bibs have their own retro attributes. Because of their unique shape, they are a favorite of retro lovers. Compared with trousers, bibs cover most of them and the exaggerated tops also become embellishments in the match.
Gently fold your trousers, and it seems to be very sensuous as you look.
If you put a coat on the outside, you will be able to bring out a good sense of depth and add extra points to your style.
No matter what the weather is, you can see him wearing a pair of trousers. It shows how much he loves bib.
canvas shoes
In addition to bib pants, Nigel Cabourn's favorite is canvas shoes. Also, canvas shoes do match the style of the tooling. A simple shape can give off the rough feeling of the tooling.
A blue dress like this, using different depths to wear out a different sense of hierarchy. Carefully processed trousers are a good contrast to canvas shoes, which is why I like to use wide leg pants with high-top canvas shoes.
If you have carefully observed the canvas shoes he wears, you will find that most of the color combinations he chooses are based on dark colors. In the tooling style, dark colors can give people a rough feeling, even if the upper body is replaced by khaki, dark canvas shoes can also be matched with this partial retro color.
One of my favorite things is that he has a good match. It feels great. The color that appears on the body is dominated by green, and the white T is on the bottom with a blue shirt. The contrast between the two is in stark contrast. The most important thing is the cut of the shorts. The loose trousers and neat canvas shoes formed a visual sense of falling, which broke the shortsighted view of my shorts.
We can also use the shoes and the upper body as a response, with the white base and the pants as a whole, the color looks very comfortable.
Blue tooling
Out of military green, khakis and navy are common colors. France's tooling blue is known as the romance in the tooling. Compared to the military green, the navy blue is more calm and connotative, and in combination with a certain wash fades, that feeling is not comparable to the military green.
It's best not to dress in full color. If it is just the same color, we can use some spliced ​​clothes to break it. Second, we can also start with accessories to add more visual effects.
The details of a person who knows how to mix even socks are never missed.
hat
In fact, a long time ago, I said miki hat. As the traditional hat style of France, it not only has a strong retro sense, but also has a shallow cap. It is also suitable for Asians.
For wool caps, everyone hates wearing the last thing, and it seems that the whole person is very procrastinating. However, miki hat has a lot of improvements in this regard, it looks like not only will be more neat and beautiful, but also warmer will be better, if my words are definitely the preferred hat type.
Do not think that he likes retro style, he will not wear a hat hat, and his wearing method is also very interesting.
He basically does not leave the cap, one is to keep warm, the second is of course to have more possibilities for the match, and finally it may be because of hair loss? Anyway, the hat has always been a plus in his match.
Nigel Cabourn spent a lot of time traveling throughout the year in order to collect more vintages and provide inspiration for his designs.
Each year basically collect more than 100 vintages, or even more. It is understood that he has collected nearly 5,000 different vintages from all over the world, and provided inspiration for his design.
While traveling, he did not forget to keep exercising. He saw such a sentence a few years ago: "If you want to keep your youth, you must keep exercising every week." Every day, he gets up at 5 or 6 o'clock. He stays wherever he is. This habit.
It's a very difficult thing to get a good-looking match without a good figure. What's more, it's a 70-year-old uncle? What I admire most about him is that the love for old age can persist for 50 years, and it also uses it as the goal of life and keeps moving forward.
He also said: "The most important thing for people is to understand what they like. It is a very happy thing to be able to do what they love."
"You can't measure things like money. If you can make money, it's just a bonus. It's a reward for you."
I just want to say: "This uncle is really cool."
