Rubato

Rubato is a Stockholm fashion house started in 2018 by friends Oliver Dannefalk and Carl Pers. It's a label that looks to the past for its ideas, then gives classic menswear a contemporary reading. The starting point is the functional elegance of 1920s to 1960s workwear and tailoring. From there, Rubato aims for garments that are understated and refined, with close attention to proportion, structure and ease. The brand puts an emphasis on quality, meticulous construction and comfort, and its clothes are wearable and full of character. Rubato talks about a quiet world of style, where garments are not just worn but lived in. It's a good label to look at if you like traditional shapes without the costume feel. You can buy it at Nitty Gritty.
