TW Steel, the brand “Big in oversized watches”, this year has presented its fans with a new concept, the Slim Line models that we already covered here.

To demonstrate how well these slim watches look when paired with a bespoke shirt and suit, TW Steel will partner with up-and-coming suit designers. The first of these relationships is with Amber Doyle, one of the creative influences behind New York-based bespoke menswear atelier Against Nature.

Doyle’s suit for Jordy Cobelens came together over a series of fittings while he was in the city on business in early 2014. He finally debuted his tailored suit in New York in April at an exclusive Slim Line media viewing, hosted fittingly of course in the ‘Against Nature’ store in Manhattan’s Lower East Side which also now proudly retails the 10-strong Slim Line collection.

The partnership with Doyle, together with other tailors set to be associated with the Slim Line Collection, will soon be showcased on a specially designed TW Steel micro-site promoting the new line – launch details to follow.

“I don’t wear a suit on a daily basis but when I do, it’s always to make an impression, whether that’s to be more formal due to the work environment or the status of the social occasion,” Cobelens stated. “Our Slim Line collection was created to meet that demand for a ‘dressier’ TW Steel edition and particularly one that was fitting to shirts and suits representative of high end men’s couture.”
