With Nothing Underneath, 47 Elizabeth Street, SW1W 9PP
Pip Durrell of WNU opened her first shop yesterday Wednesday 25th May and we went to have a look. We are big fans of her shirts (along with Megan, Duchess of Sussex and many others), particularly the boyfriend cut. They are well made, can be worn tucked in or untucked and get better and better with each wash. With the opening of the new shop, WNU are launching a new High Summer 2022 collection including new shades of ‘The Boyfriend Linen’ shirt in mint, lilac and cornflower stripes, along with ‘The Weekend’, a new style featuring a boxy shape in fresh coloured seersucker fabrics, as well as a sustainable hemp fabric. It’s great to see the shirts all in one place and be able to try them on for size and fit. A word of warning though – once you buy one, you’re hooked.
