Nautical Chic (Thames & Hudson 2015) is the first ever book to track the influence of our seafaring past on the clothing that we love. Nautical Chic traces the relationship between maritime dress and the fashionable wardrobe through 5 chapters each focussing on a different profession: the Officer, Sailor, Fisherman, Sportsman and Pirate. The book weaves together politics, imperialism, war, leisure, trade, sport and seafaring adventure to tell the stories of garments – the duffle coat, the yellow fisherman’s macintosh, the yacht club blazer – loaded with historical and cultural significance, and the designers influenced by these styles, from Coco Chanel to Alexander McQueen, Jean Paul Gaultier, and Malcolm McLaren & Vivienne Westwood.
