'It is a wonderful book written by a guy whose attention to detail is obviously paramount.' -Dr John Cooper Clarke Poet and Wordsmith Jason Disley, with zeal and attention to detail, like any good connoisseur, embarks upon a journey with his latest work, The Desired Article: A Concise Look At Style. A book delves into the origin and history of men's fashion, be it Sta-Prest trousers, Pea Coats, The Harrington Jacket, Pork Pie Hats, Bermuda Shorts, and more. Emphasising on garments that are often taken for granted and manufactured out of necessity and particularity, not style. Yet in The Desired Article: A Concise Look At Style, Disley describes how these apparels have been adopted, adapted, and in most cases improved, from the Ivy League Students on campuses in the USA in the 1960s to the original Suede heads on the football terraces in the 1970s. Whatever subculture, each has made a declaration and dedication to fashion. With the ideology that looking stylish with a confident attitude is a must in a hectic world. An attitude is still going strong today. A must for everyone who loves their clobber and a lust for counterculture.
