If there was ever a car that left an iconic footprint in history, not only in the automotive industry but in all ranges of socio-cultural aspects, that car was definitely the Mini Cooper. Much more than the trademark aesthetic or technical specifications that turned it into a favourite amongst enthusiasts, the most undeniable feature of the Mini was its inebriating charisma, an alluring appeal that earned it to this day, a most coveted place in every classic car collector’s garage. 

As such, it came to no surprise that when Mini revamped its image through the BMW group, presenting an updated take on the classic model, it caused quite a stir amidst connoisseurs and purists. Tweaking one of the most cherished car models in history is a brave move to say the least, but despite the mixed reviews the truth remains Mini has managed to perpetuate, if not strengthen, the charismatic essence of the original version. Few other brands manage to imbue their clients with such love for the brand and its surrounding universe. However, after getting acquainted with the new Mini Clubman first-hand, it became clear why it gathers such a devoted legion of fans…

Despite the outstanding list of extras on this version, I must say that what stroke me right from the start was the vibrant burgundy shade - it simply hooks you and exudes sophistication, a shared effect when it comes to garments. After losing yourself in this dazzling paint job, stepping in is an experience in itself, with the trademark Mini aesthetic taking over as the car reacts to your every interaction, with ever-adjusting lighting ambience. Getting hands-down with the Clubman provides a unique driving experience where all the technology and specs. smoothly translate to a powerful response and superb handling, especially taking into account it’s a compact shooting-brake. This, of course, is yet another plus since it perfectly merges boundaries between segments, compact enough for the city while spacious enough to throw Boris and a bunch of friends in for the weekend.

Details: Mini Clubman Pure Burgundy Metallic, bespoke jacket by Beckett & Robb, made-to-measure shirt by Deo Veritas, bespoke trousers by El 91, tassel loafers by Herring Shoes, spectacles by Dior, vintage paisley tie, pocket square by Lobo Marinho, braces by Leyva, ring by Progetto Fede and my boy, Boris.

Looking Back: The Lisbon ConnectionWith a somewhat nostalgic feeling taking over as the year comes to an end, I thought it would be appropriate to share one of my favourite editorials of 2015: not only due to Tim Collin’s uncanny eye but also because it sits close to my heart in more ways than one. Shot in Lisbon and featuring creations by Diniz & Cruz, one of the most reputed tailoring ateliers in Portugal, this editorial imbues the city’s blatant beauty with a sartorial universe.Ph: Tim Collins

An Updated BikerFew jackets portray such a strong trademark image as the iconic Biker. Originally a leather jacket descending from the aviator version, the motorcycle jacket experienced a rise in popularity on a variety of channels and subcultures. Be it through Marlon Brando’s characters in numerous films such as “The Wild One”, or its adoption as the go-to uniform for rebellious youngsters during the punk era, the biker jacket quickly became an acclaimed model across several branches of popular culture. Combining the unruly nature of rock ‘n roll and punk culture with the alluring sex appeal of leather, the biker jacket soon crossed boundaries into high fashion territory. This strong link is one that remains to this day…With the wide range of variations now available on the market, namely in terms of fit, materials and details, I wanted to share with you one of the most exclusive and outstanding to this date, courtesy of Norwegian Rain. Reinventing the original biker through the use of its exclusive technical waterproof fabrics, added length and sleek lines, the brand was able to deliver a garment with a much more sophisticated feel to it. Recapturing its aviator origins, a detachable shearling collar has been added, along with an array of subtle pockets spread throughout and the iconic asymmetrical closure, this time around with two-way zippers that result in several silhouettes. Besides the inherent aesthetic appeal, the beauty of it resides in the uncanny versatility, looking just as beautiful paired with denim on a bike, as with more polished attires such as the one depicted here. I love how it contrasts against the vintage bespoke oatmeal flannel trousers and the double denim combination of vest and polo shirt. To top it off, the knitted tie introduces hints of burgundy picked up by the burgundy derby shoes. Details: The Biker by Norwegian Rain, washed denim vest by Fortela, made to order denim polo shirt by Naked - Filippo Matera, vintage oat flannel sartorial trousers by Rota, burgundy derbies by Manuel Gomez Artesanos, silk knit tie by Vandoma and Pleat shades The Bespoke Dude Eyewear.Model and Styling: Miguel Amaral VieiraPh: Filipa AlvesFollow me on Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | Pinterest

Originally a leather jacket descending from the aviator version, the motorcycle jacket experienced a rise in popularity on a variety of channels and subcultures. Be it through Marlon Brando’s characters in numerous films such as “The Wild One”, or its adoption as the go-to uniform for rebellious youngsters during the punk era, the biker jacket quickly became an acclaimed model across several branches of popular culture. Combining the unruly nature of rock ‘n roll and punk culture with the alluring sex appeal of leather, the biker jacket soon crossed boundaries into high fashion territory. This strong link is one that remains to this day…With the wide range of variations now available on the market, namely in terms of fit, materials and details, I wanted to share with you one of the most exclusive and outstanding to this date, courtesy of Norwegian Rain. Reinventing the original biker through the use of its exclusive technical waterproof fabrics, added length and sleek lines, the brand was able to deliver a garment with a much more sophisticated feel to it. Recapturing its aviator origins, a detachable shearling collar has been added, along with an array of subtle pockets spread throughout and the iconic asymmetrical closure, this time around with two-way zippers that result in several silhouettes. Besides the inherent aesthetic appeal, the beauty of it resides in the uncanny versatility, looking just as beautiful paired with denim on a bike, as with more polished attires such as the one depicted here. I love how it contrasts against the vintage bespoke oatmeal flannel trousers and the double denim combination of vest and polo shirt. To top it off, the knitted tie introduces hints of burgundy picked up by the burgundy derby shoes. Details: The Biker by Norwegian Rain, washed denim vest by Fortela, made to order denim polo shirt by Naked - Filippo Matera, vintage oat flannel sartorial trousers by Rota, burgundy derbies by Manuel Gomez Artesanos, silk knit tie by Vandoma and Pleat shades The Bespoke Dude Eyewear.Model and Styling: Miguel Amaral VieiraPh: Filipa AlvesFollow me on Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | Pinterest
