A Somerset story
The Shearling coat is the 2022 ultimate winter staple and a classic to last a lifetime.
Last month, I was given the amazing opportunity to restyle a 75 year old Somerset family brand Owen Barry. Cindi, Chas and her team run their family business in Street near Glastonbury designing hand crafted coats, accessories and outerwear hand made in their factory downstairs.
The brand sells direct to consumers but also produces for high end brands you see online. They are beautiful sheepskin and leather coats and gilets.
They have a new swanky website on the way, but I wanted to share my styling shots from the shoot - set in the wonderful location of Middlewick Farm just under Glastonbury Tor.
Many products are new, available to buy now - see links. Some have not hit the website yet - If you are interested in investing please contact Chas or Cindi at Owen Barry.
I loved styling these coats (there are mens ones too) and working with this family brand near my home.
You’ll find lots of inspiration on how to style but please drop me an email if you are need more advice - these are investment coats to last a lifetime.
Owen Barry is having a big sale this TODAY at its HQ in Street for all coats, gilets, accessories and homeware collection.
