Turnbull & Asser are widely regarded as the worlds leading shirtmakers. Established in 1885, they have been operating from around Jermyn Street since 1903 to the present day. In a collaboration with Billionaire Boys Club, both brands pay tribute to one of the great style icons of the 20th Century, Gianni Agnelli, Itallian industrialist and head of Fiat. He was especially famous for wearing his wristwatch over his shirt sleeve, and on occasion his suit. The shirt is made with classic Thomas Mason cloth, in a classic Blue & white stripe, with the Billionaire Boys Club Jet logo on the breast, and a Pop art style wristwatch printed on the left sleeve. The Billionaire Boys Club x Turnbull & Asser shirt will be released exclusively online in Europe through Billionaire Boys Club on March 24th and shortly afterwards through the following stockists: Harvey Nichols, Selfridges, John Antony, Wellgosh, Storm, Dee Cee Style and colette.
