SCOTLAND'S TOP INDEPENDENT FASHION ... - Xile Clothing

Diesel consistently come up with the
goods and A/W ‘11 is no exception. The
European denim giants have produced
an outstanding collection which draws
influence from rock n’ roll imagery and
military themes to great effect.
Their Fall collection, entitled “No Guns, No
Roses”, is ideal for aspiring rockers. The
roughly hewn military overshirts laden with
detail, checked shirts and leather edged
jackets which characterise this collection all
have the swagger and style of true rock n’
rollers. We’ve pulled together four key looks
overleaf – from heavy duty cardigans to bold
shirts and simple tailored jackets – there’s
something for every style. Diesel’s denim
collection can’t be faulted either, we’ve picked
four key fits overleaf but there’s lots more
to choose from instore. Get yourself down
to your local Xile and let the staff talk you
through the best fits, fades and washes. It is a
testament to the creative team at Diesel that
every collection they produce feels so fresh
and different. Despite being a major player
in the fashion world for over twenty years,
the label continues to develop exciting new
concepts and looks. This seminal Italian label
has been a mainstay of the Xile collection
since the earliest days and remains one of our
top brands; with amazing collections like this
you can see why!
Sgatsye Shirt £140 (12077) Jallos Jacket £185 (10848)
Smale Sweat £110 (12095)
Shento Shirt £160 (12087)
Woda jacket £250 (12234)
The Woda jacket is a great addition to
any wardrobe. The classic grey colourway
benefits hugely from rich brown leather
detailing while the thick lining and durable
material will keep you warm over the winter
months. Dressy enough to impress without
being difficult to wear - this key jacket is a
great example of well designed technical
outerwear. Team it with chinos or skinny
jeans for a smart look that will hold up
against the elements.
The Shento shirt is a standout piece from this
season’s collection. The muted black and
red colourway is offset by corduroy detailing
at the collar and cuffs and the fit is sublime.
Wear it as a standard shirt or unbutton it over
a simple white tee for a layered look. The
subtle branding and distinctive zip detailing
make this a cut above the rest. Team it with
a heavy parka and battered denims for great
effect.
