CABINET: Menswear pop-up at Luna & Curious

Cabinet comes to Luna & Curious tomorrow for three whole weeks.

Cabinet is a new online menswear store based in Shoreditch created by Tim Yates. The store originally started with an obsession with finding the perfect fitting shirt in London and not being able to do so.

Cabinet stocks own label pieces along with a growing number of niche independent labels that are clean, simple and contemporary to suit the modern style conscious man.

A pop-up store will be opening in Shoreditch to launch the label and will showcase all of the pieces that are sold online. Key to the collection are simple, slim-fitting shirts from Italian shirt-maker Mastai Ferretti. Predominantly with semi-cutaway and cutaway collars the shirts come in crisp whites, blues, gingham checks and stripes. Seasonal pieces include linen shirts with rounded collars and casual striped button-downs.

Also stocked are canvas bags from American brand Makr. These heavyweight tote and

weekender bags come in khaki, grey and navy.

The latest addition to the range are Cabinet’s own casual trousers, which are designed with an English feel and an Italian fit. Made entirely in England the trousers are lightweight and slim with a tapered leg and come in bright olive green, french navy and neutral.
