Neil Barrett

Neil Barrett’s approach to menswear grew out of a family tailoring business established in 1895. A fourth-generation tailor, he studied at Central Saint Martins and the Royal College of Art before developing the precise, pared-back clothing associated with his career. His work at Prada helped shape that house’s modern menswear language. In his own label, British tailoring heritage meets an interest in innovation, with particular attention to cut and finish.
