The Rivington

The namesake for the address of the first Mr Start store, The Rivington epitomises the very essence of Mr Start style icons. Designed in 2007 as a contemporary alternative to the more traditional suit. Slim fitting with narrow lapels, a slightly shorter jacket and slimmer sleeves creating modernity making this the ideal suit for the contemporary man. Paired with a waistcoat or with dresswear for a more formal feel, the Rivington is one of our most versatile blocks.

The Pitfield

The Pitfield is based on the Rivington but designed to be a more casual, relaxed suit. The unstructured, soft shoulders and slightly more generous fit, coupled with the Rivington which has wider lapels gives an effortless contemporary feel making this a superb every day suit to style. Ideal for a more casually themed wedding, yet still smart enough.

The Hoxton

Now, the Hoxton is a similar fit to the Pitfield, but has a much wider lapel and is available with a soft shoulder or a more elevated shoulder which creates an ideal semi formal feel. Pair with a waistcoat and mix and match fabrics to play with its styling.

The Leonard

The most different one of the four is the Leonard with its stronger, more defined structured lines, it is our most classical suit and yet maintains an unapologetic modern vibe, especially if it's in the one button fastening. With a structured shoulder, wide classic lapel or peak lapel coupled with a curved sleeve for a sleek shape The 'Leonard' provides a strong silhouette.This is most definitely the nearest to a classic Savile Row suit. This shape has come back in fashion.

04. The Lining

There are three options when it comes to linings.

• Fully-lined; the whole inside of the jacket is lined
• Part-lined; the sleeves, jacket sides and the upper back area is lined, looks great and makes it a bit lighter to wear.
• Deconstruct; no lining except for the sleeves in our deconstructed model, which gives a very soft handle

The style and design of the trouser can dramatically change your look. Here is a quick synopsis of what to consider when selecting your trouser:

• Flat front, with slim hems which is our most popular style
