This week, Sotheby’s has partnered up with esteemed Savile Row tailor Huntsman & Sons for its first online only luxury lifestyle sale.

Featuring an array of bespoke pieces from Huntsman’s owner Pierre Lagrange, as well as newly commissioned pieces that exemplify the Hunstman lifestyle and appreciation of exquisite objects. Lagrange's pieces have been collected over several years and across many continents. Each item  has been hand-picked from some of the world’s leading companies and artisans, and refects the ultimate Huntsman lifestyle, from a timeless Cartier watch to cashmere- lined cowboy boots, a tweed billiards table to a customised onesie in the Huntsman Burning Man print.

Highlights of the sale include the iconic orange smoking jacket as worn by Kingsman Eggsy, bespoke by Campbell Carey who cut the original prototype, and a pair of 18 carat gold Givenchy cufflinks designed by James de Givenchy and inspired by his uncle Hubert de Givenchy, who frequently graced Huntsman’s fitting rooms. Claret Adidas Stan Smith trainers, watches customised by Huntsman and Sea2See sunglasses embody the full Huntsman aesthetic and will be on offer to complete the look. 

Venturing beyond the tangible, Mr. Lagrange has also curated several ‘bespoke experiences’ including a unique opportunity to experience the Huntsman Kingsman Room Sleepover Experience in their shop. Two cashmere sleeping bags with a monogrammed zipper in your initial from CHAOS, the luxury accessories brand co-founded by Charlotte Stockdale and Katie Lyall, will make you feel right at home, and when you wake up, you will be treated to a breakfast at Isabel, Mayfair. 

From 22 May - 1 June 2018. Find out more at Sotheby’s
