Husbands Paris
I am currently developing a very dangerous and unhealthy (because stuff is expensive) obsession over Husbands Paris, so I needed a place where I can shout my obsession into the void, aka the internet.

This jacket is perfect, I love it so much, I want one
(for clarity, I don't have any of their stuff, so far it is desiring their stuff from afar)
link no work
Ah
second
this one
Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately) the only RTW Jacket they currently have in that pattern (I think this jacket is single breasted) is in a fabric that I find very unappealing
Husbands World Wide
SINGLE-BREASTED JACKET IN TWEED - TARTAN ECCLES CHECK
Straight 2 button jacket, scottish tweed, eccles check, 12 cm peak lapels, natural horn button, milanese button hole
also the photos on their website are a bit peculiar lol
This is top inspo for me
Standing pic btw
ah
so it is single breasted
Yep!
I just realized something:
Ive been lightly planning on getting a jacket made based on this once i have the money to do so
this is my "we have husbands at home" fit lol. I never noticed xD
same! Paris is only a few hours by train away from me to begin with
every time I see Images of that man I have to stare respectfully
That being said i am considerably more widely built so I am unsure how that fit would look on me.
husbands is so cool idt i can handle it
their flares are perfection
they are
unfortunately most of them only go up to a size 34 waist
cries in 36
Uhh. They are holding another Archive Sale soon. Gonna be interesting to see what did not make the cut.
how does their blazer fit? Should I size up for them?
Only way to know is to go by measurements. Its a very narrow fit in the shoulders so theres a good chance youll need to get what fits there and tailor down the rest.
Oh wow
Yes, you are right, the shoulders are really narrow
What is really annoying is that they have finished Buttonholes on their jackets. So you also have to be careful not to take anything too long or that is going to be a pain.
I think I am not brave enough to order a suit jacket from them online. At least not during the archive sale where I can't return it.
searching for "husbands paris" on ebay with no additional filter is a bad idea 0/10 do not recommend
will die a happy man if i can find a boy scout shirt (not really my life is good and i do not need more clothes in all honesty)
Yeah just font do it at work lol
Thansk for turning me on to Husbands. Love this.
Does anyone have a collection of husbands pics?
Like lookbooks and stuff
Honestly their instagram is just non-stop fits going back years
They dont tend to do straight-up lookbooks
Do you think one could do a "we have husbands at home" fit with this?
Definitely
Seller gave me measurements. Its too small
Went through the last three years of husbands fits rn. Trying to better understand how their stuff works.
I think Husbands is really good at doing tailoring but adding just the right amount of edgyness/drama to it
Also I like that a lot of their stuff feels really androgynous in a way that tickles my gender senses
Yeah i think of husbands as like the coolest a classic suit can be without being overly fashiony
The flared/wide legs, strong shoulders, and wide lapels are really sharp and elegant details
You should also look at edward sexton! He was the business partner of tommy nutter back in the 70s. He passed last year but his tailoring house is still alive and strong.
i like the styling choices they do (horse bit loafers, boots, repp stripe ties, mismatched leathers) - it feels like a conscious departure from being straight 70s inspo
I will check them out. Perhaps even in person when im in London next Week. Some good old window-shopping ^^
I am pretty fascinated by the Tennis stripe Jacket + Jeans combination for morbid reasons. @Charweeg's theme waywt ist excellent inspo in this regard I think
Super upset this suit is not in my size

You can always return any online purchase if French law applies (unless it’s made to order)
True, true
Now spend your money
Once my tax returns are back I might think about it
God damn it. The new flared corduroy trousers are perfect. But 500 for a pair of trousers?!? Oof

holy moly
I really like this one. Though im propably just gonna hunt for a navy milsurp greatcoat instead.
I just discovered they have the boy scout shirt in black cotton gauze and my wallet is already quaking in fear
Its cheaper than the brycelands black sawtooth would be my only justification lol
i found an analog to the boy scout shirt at a flea market (vintage inc brand by macys)...such a good shirt
Nice!
Also jelly asf
I hate that I can’t get their flared jeans out of my head like…they’re just jeans but 🥵 husbands knows their way around a flare
You know what I hate?
Half of their flares ending on a 34'' waist
But yeah, they are hot

Listening rn
I think when I eventually get something from them I really want to make it a pilgrimage and buy it in store.
Husbands FW24 is live
this is a fun jacket
Ooh I love the horsebits,
Was not expecting trucker jackets haha
i think these are still of the last summer collection
but yeah
i appreciate that they have a bit of a higher heel than usual
You know what I really hate about their rtw jackets? the friggin functional buttonholes...

so close to copping this rn and justifying it as a neccessary funeral attire purchase
Husbands World Wide
DOUBLE-BREASTED SUIT IN FLANNEL - BLACK WITH CHALK STRIPES
jacket fully canvased and lined, roman shoulders • Parisian notch lapel, 11 cm, back length 77 cm (size 48 EU) • straight pockets with flaps
Oh great. I emailed them to ask about some measurements and they told me they have stopped producing jeans in width larger than W34
oh well
propably much better for my bank account
yeah it sucks how exclusive their sizing is but my wallet isn't complaining lol
if their jackets didn't fit like 2 or 3 sizes small in the shoulders i'd almost be able to justify buying a suit from them
it's honestly kinda wild that they say to take your normal size
yeah
its a thin-people brand
which I hold against them
Damn topping out a 34 is wild. That’s like barely M in some brands.
I picked up a wide collar dress shirt during a recent Ssense sale. Been styling it with some non Husbands stuff for “we have Husbands Paris at home” vibe
The jeans are great!
(The entire outfits are tbh!)
Anyway, their customer support said they would talk to production and see if they can produce some W36 stuff.
Their stated reason for only producing up to W36 was "we have trouble selling these" - which sounds completely wild to me.
that is crazy
I guess if all the models wearing your stuff in the product photos are very thin you might not appeal to not super-thin ppl
Just a thought
Anyway
Better for my bank account anyway
Thank you! The jeans are actually Levi’s women’s Middy Flare. Wanted a cheap alternative that still had a nice wide flare
Any price range on their MTM / MTO? V tempted by one of their DB numbers but there's nothing in stock.
Finally someone who actually considers buying their tailoring so I can get firsthand reports on the fit!
Hah. Not encouraged by your experience though. I’m neither tall or thin so they might not welcome my custom.
I would be honestly quite interested to see how their stuff works on ppl outside of that specific range.
As in I want them to beat my allegations
Ebay post I found via styleforum for MTO prices:
found this on styleforum as well, although it's probably higher since 2022
for some reason the number $3000 also came to mind but I honestly can't remember where I heard that
yeah, figured it would be around 2k - their rtw suits hover at around 1,650
Resurrecting this very old comment but also look at Michael Browne or Davide Taub for a modern tailor doing a similarly architectural style
Yes!
Chittleborough and morgan as well
Both of whom came up under tommy nutter and edward sexton
I've been to the store a bunch of times to look at things. it's always a good time, definitely recommend going there as well when you are in paris
What's the vibe with the staff like?
They are Parisians so your experience may vary but if you show genuine interest they are very nice
