Layering was the name of the game for M.J. Bale at Melbourne Fashion Week. Suits expertly tailored, covered by dandy scarves and professional trench coats, topped off with just the perfect touch, like a quirky bowtie.

Again, we see some of that London inspiration here, in the form of that Savile Row tailoring and suiting up. Suits in various plaids, window panes and pinstripes made for a traditional yet stylish collection.

If it all just seems all little to poised for you, don’t worry–M.J. Bale is the official clothier partner of the Australian Soccer team, Australian cricket team, Australian polo team and local Super rugby sides, the NSW Waratahs, ACT Brumbies and Western Force.

Looks like M.J. Bale is more than just suits, and can appeal to a sporty, more casual man as well.
