the duke of london
merlin mccormack
Duke of London is a family-run classic and supercar hub in West London founded in 2015 by Merlin McCormack, one of the capital's youngest and brightest entrepreneurs. His flair for business and commerce is matched only by his unique style and taste.
His company offers sales, restoration, storage, servicing, detailing, and everything in between.
Duke of London is also home to The Brewery Tap Pub and Plonkers Wine Bar, and host regular events throughout the year including their renowned 'Classics & Cake' monthly classic and supercar meet.
Dugdale Bros & Co
Linen suit
Linen is a fabric that is known for beating the heat, and Merlin selected the cloth to keep his cool in the U.S. during a summer trip.
The suit was tailored in quite a formal way - double breasted in style and conventional construction with roped sleeve-head, but the patch pockets offered a casual touch.
Boot-cut trousers completed the look together with appropriate footwear and headgear.
Fratelli Tallia di Delfino
rainbow suit
The Super 130s Rainbow collection offers a wide range of vibrant colours, and makes the perfect summer suit for both formal and relaxed occasions.
Given Merlin's reputation for being safe on two-wheels, he selected the white pattern from the Rainbow collection, confident that neither he nor the suit would come to any harm whilst riding his Vespa.
Darker colours are available for those who are accident prone.

HOPSACK blazer
Merlin clearly knows how to make his wardrobe work - pairing the white trousers from his Rainbow suit with a midnight blue Hopsack blazer.
The white mother-of-pearl buttons are a nice touch, to make this classic blazer a stand-out piece.
Hopsack tailors beautifully into any style, whether traditionally tailored or unstructured, with the open weave and natural ease make it supremely comfortable.
Fratelli Tallia di Delfino
rainbow suit
Colourful characters are naturally drawn to Delfino's Rainbow collection.
The kaleidoscopic range of vibrant shades has something for everyone, and the versatility of the cloth allows it to be worn in both formal and relaxed environments.
The Super 130s yarn creates a soft, luxurious fabric, that tailors well and performs admirably. Both Merlin and brother Algy, together with the rest of the family are great fans.
