Designed by British Icon Bill Nighy in collaboration with our in-house design team, these cashmere and silk long johns are a nod to both John Smedley’s history as the rumoured creator of these garments and Bill’s desire to solve the endless dilemma of being frequently cold on long days filming on location. They offer a luxury knitwear alternative to the merino base layers also within the Bill Nighy collection.
The perfect base layer, these knitted long johns can also be styled with the merino round neck jumper within the range for a complete set.
Featuring Bill’s signature bird doodle (drawn on every script for decades) these long johns also have a distinctive wider rib detail to the placket and cuffs.
As the Creative Design team have control over the product specification, they can incorporate sustainability criteria in concept development and design stages. The team are already working on best practice derived from London College of Fashion and Kering knowledge.
