This is pretty damn cool. Peter Buck, guitarist and founding member of R.E.M., on stage in Amsterdam this week wearing our Blake Mill Dark Bloom shirt. No paid placement. A customer who knows Peter gave him one because she thought he’d like it. Her report: “He loves it.” Apparently so. 🎸

Chief Rogue, @priceken on … ironing

A customer once told us he buys two sizes of the same Blake Mill shirt before every cruise. One for the start of the trip. One for the flight home. Which feels like the sort of planning that only comes from experience. He’s probably not alone either. Certain shirts seem to earn repeat appearances very quickly. The one you wear to dinner once… then suddenly find yourself packing for every decent restaurant, late bar and anything with a reservation attached to it. Anyway. We are making room for new shirts arriving next week. Selected styles are now up to 20% off. Useful information if there’s one you’ve been hovering over for a while.

After a Def Leppard show and a glass of wine, Ken (CEO) cold-emailed Joe Elliott pitching him Blake Mill shirts. A week later his stylist replied. Joe had forwarded it. Ken ended up backstage at Madison Square Garden, steaming shirts for Joe Elliott, Vivian Campbell and Steve Smith. Joe picked up the Skulls & Roses. Asked quietly for an XL. "Don't tell anyone." He wore them because he liked them. We never paid a penny. Ask anyway. Win tickets to the Manchester gig on July 6: lnkd.in/ev8C6W-v

A portion of a great interview with @johnrobb77 discussing how he scored the first ever interview with Nirvana. Check out John's new book - Punk Rock Ruined My Life.

Half the run sold before a single shirt shipped. The Japanese Flowers Limited Edition is now in stock and once it's gone, it's gone. No reprints. No "we might bring it back." Deep indigo. Japanese florals. Very few left. → blakemill.co.uk/products/jap… #BlakeMill #LimitedEdition #Menswear

Who'd have thought eyewear stying was a thing? Blake Mill partnered up with @Eyewear_Stylist in Manchester last week. Dan Scott captured everyone's attention while he walked through what you must look for in eyewear (and how to co-ordinate it with your Blake Mill shirt!). Next stop: London in September.
