Discover the latest collection
The M&S Originals collection offers carefully manufactured, responsible menswear. Each piece is inspired by our archive, reinvented with a focus on considered design. The limited-edition capsule champions innovative materials, such as recycled cotton, responsibly sourced leather, natural tea dyes and plant-based corozo (a material that will naturally biodegrade over time) buttons. The use of textured hopsack weave in the tailored pieces gives a relaxed feel to modern summer suiting.
We redesigned each ARCHIVE piece, respecting its provenance, and created new patterns for a modern style and fit, applying leading innovationsKaren Hall, head of menswear design
Responsible style
The designers worked closely with M&S’s in-house sourcing team to create a collection that reflects the company’s history of quality and use of natural fibres. The range utilises innovative recycled and responsibly sourced fabrics, linings, buttons and threads.
We discussed what the ULTIMATE environmentally responsible approach would be and aimed for thatKaren Hall
The models
Our M&S Originals models are people with stories of their own – creatives, vintage lovers and fashion enthusiasts including Terry Betts of styling service Thread.com; Frank Akinsete, vintage boutique owner and stylist; Moteen, menswear retail manager; and photographer Jake Collins. Showcasing a cross-section of ages, careers and backgrounds, the models demonstrate the wearability and suits-all styling appeal of the range.
I was looking for INDIVIDUALS with a distinct sense of personal style to model the collectionKaren Hall
