The selection combines more refined classic clothing with casual elements and ranges from blue wool blazers and flannel slacks to lambswool cardigans, crewneck sweaters and denim popovers. And snuff suede chukka boots and penny loafers successfully complement the collection. A lot of attention has been given to varying textures and the color scheme features subdued shades from dark blue to shades of brown and olive green. In general the selection - as Drake's usually does - combines best part of Italian, American and British styles.

One of the best features of Drake's London look books in general is the way how the focus to the garments and combinations and how they showcases the characteristic style of the company. And those same elements are once again recognizable with this look book as well.
