Where do you buy Michael Portillo's blazers?

[Gathursty]

I'm intrigued by this guy's fashion sense. Does anyone know where he gets his blazers of many, many colours from?

No idea but I just had to look at this thread because of what I took to be a surreal title, there should be an award for the most bizarre thread title of the month.

Does he have a Twitter account? I bet he does, in which case why not send him a tweet?

Rumour is that Adrian Holdsworth of Volpe in Pimlico is the guilty party

I'm sure that since the programme started, his outfits have become more garish - I noticed this week he was wearing pink trousers!

would that be Portillo or salmon pink? Nothing wrong with cutting along, looking dapper, i'd say..

As a brief aside, I am always interested in which particular blazer from his extensive wardrobe that Paul Atterbury will be wearing when "The Antiques Roadshow" is broadcast.

I have to admit, when I saw him on tv today in a rather smart green jacket, my first thought was just like the title of this thread, "I want one, where can I get it". My second thought, about 0.5 seconds later, was "He's going to have bought it somewhere expensive. I probably can't afford it"

Well if I were to hazard a guess...probably more Savile Row than Primark

 

[telstarbox]

He was on the same train as a forum trip once - should have asked him then!

 

[DarloRich]

I assume they will be made to measure

 

[Minilad]

I assume he has no mirrors in his house!

Do you actually want his Blazers, or just ones the same?

 

[Gathursty]

I don't want Michael's actual blazers hahahaha. I just want to know where you could get similar ones from. Every so often, I think it'd brighten Wigan and the whole of Lancashire if I turned out to town in a salmon pink blazer.

Volpe and Richard James, both tailors in London.

Pinky P is renowned on here for his fashion choices - they should paint Thameslink, Great Northern, Greater Anglia and c2c units to match his wardrobe in order to get rid of those dull white liveries.

Oh dear. I just went and looked up both websites. It appears that Richard James suits start at around £400-£500. I don't think I want a brightly coloured suit that much.
