Work and battle! Learn the secrets to wearing a suit from a spy

"Kingsman: The Secret Service" (14)

Director: Matthew Vaughn Cast: Taron Egerton, Colin Firth

The Kingsman: The Secret Service, located in Savile Row, the sacred place for men's clothing in Mayfair, London, is actually the world's most powerful spy agency... From this introduction, fashion seems to be the main theme of `` Kingsman: The Secret Service '' (14).

In the actual filming, ``HUNTSMAN'', which has been a store on Savile Row for many years since its establishment in 1849, is used as the setting for the movie. It is a traditional store whose top customers included stars representing Hollywood's golden age, including Gregory Peck, Cary Grant, and Humphrey Bogart.

Harry, a spy played by Colin Firth, takes Eggsy, played by Taron Egerton, a newbie whose regular outfit is a Fred Perry polo shirt, to the fitting room of ``HUNTSMAN,'' which was also used by Humphrey Bogart (also known as Bogie). Thanks to the success of the movie, the craftsmanship of ``HUNTSMAN'' has been rediscovered, and the store is said to be regaining its former status. The PR effect of the movie is tremendous.

The actual costumes that appear in the film are designed by MR.PORTER, a British luxury online shop specializing in men's clothing, and costume designer Arianne Phillips ( from Once Upon a Time in Hollywood). (2019) was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Costume Design).

Eggsy wears a striped suit and regimental tie, Harry wears a black velvet tuxedo with a well-sewn shoulder line and a wide butterfly, a glen check double suit typical of a British gentleman, a striped suit and regimental tie, etc. , a collection of masterpieces that bring together the best of tradition.

By the way, the shirt is from Turnbull & Asser, a purveyor to the British royal family (Sean Connery is also a fan), and the tie is from London's leading high brand, Drakes (now a rare factory brand in the UK), so no corners are cut. ``Kingsman: The Secret Service'' lives up to its reputation as a fashion movie.
