As we say hello to the cooler mornings, we also say hello to some new brands here at O&C Butcher.

Founded in 1978 Pennyblack is one of Italy’s most popular women’s fashion brands and part of the Max Mara Group. The collection has a sophisticated but easy-to-wear style offering high quality fabrics and accurate finishing. The coat shown below for example is reversible and plush on one side and smooth velvet on the other – perfect for the first chills of winter with a definite air of the luxurious about it.

Fairfax & Favor is a young British fashion brand that since 2013 has been shaking up the luxury footwear market and includes a beautiful collection of accessories too. An extremely popular lifestyle brand with a very dedicated following they definitely tick the country chic box. If you’re after laid-back elegance with high quality materials then look no further than the Fairfax & Favor range.

The Anna Lascata collection of tweed coats and jackets sits perfectly alongside Fairfax & Favor. They do have a very traditional feel yet with a modern cut, very popular with our customers (and staff!) but do note that we find they come up quite small so it’s worth going up a size.

And finally…something for the men! Based in Amsterdam, Barts pride themselves in keeping you warm in winter and cool in summer. They bring O&C menswear an extensive range of hats, gloves and scarves. We know the beanies will be particularly popular for the winter with their soft fleece linings and below are just a few of our favourites. Ladies, don’t worry – if you’re in Aldeburgh you can find the women’s Barts collection over the road at Fleur but also online here at O&C Butcher.
