What to know about Percival
Shirts and knitwear carry the range
Printed and embroidered camp-collar shirts and patterned knitwear are the core buys, with overshirts, tailored-casual trousers and outerwear filling out the rest.
Graphics instead of logos
The look comes from hand-drawn artwork, jacquards and unusual fabrics in bold colour, not visible branding, with regular illustrator and cultural licensing collaborations.
British references, played for humour
Founded in London in 2014, it reworks British design cues with wit at contemporary mid-tier prices, selling direct through its own site as well as stockists.
