Icons of Turnbull: 21st Century Turnbull
As we conclude our 140th year and this series celebrating a rich legacy of craftsmanship and cultural influence, we take immense pride in Turnbull & Asser’s continued presence at the forefront of style. Today, we remain a defining name in both cinematic and political spheres, honouring our heritage while evolving with each generation. Our designs continue to be embraced by some of the most influential figures in contemporary fashion, proving that true craftsmanship stands the test of time.
Roberto Menichetti: A Modern Vision

In 2025, Turnbull & Asser welcomed Roberto Menichetti as our new Creative Director, ushering in a chapter that honours tradition while embracing contemporary elegance. With a discerning eye for tailoring and an instinct for subtle innovation, Menichetti has reinterpreted classic silhouettes, layering heritage fabrics with a modern sensibility. Under his guidance, our collections continue to resonate with those who appreciate refinement, proving that even after 140 years, Turnbull & Asser remains a house that adapts without compromise.
Prince William: The Modern Royal

Our longstanding connection to the British royal family continues into the present day, with His Royal Highness Prince William exemplifying the quiet authority of a Turnbull & Asser gentleman. From formal engagements to understated public appearances, the Prince’s sartorial choices reflect a devotion to craftsmanship and timeless style. Each shirt and accessory subtly nods to the heritage of Jermyn Street, demonstrating that true elegance is measured not in fashion’s passing whims, but in enduring quality and thoughtful detail.
Colin Firth & Taron Egerton, Kingsman (2014)

Our legacy of dressing the British spy films continued with the 2014 blockbuster Kingsman, starring Colin Firth and Taron Egerton. This collaboration reinforced Turnbull & Asser’s rstanding in contemporary cinema, ensuring our craftsmanship remains as integral to modern film as it has been for decades.
Ralph Fiennes & Uma Thurman, The Avengers (1998)

In the 1998 film adaptation of The Avengers, Ralph Fiennes and Uma Thurman - like the original John Steed, played by Patrick Macnee - were dressed by Turnbull & Asser. This high-profile collaboration reaffirmed our influence in both cinema and sartorial elegance.
Renée Zellweger, British Vogue & Bridget Jones (2025)

Turnbull & Asser’s legacy in film and fashion continues with Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, where our signature craftsmanship subtly elevates Renée Zellweger’s portrayal of the iconic Bridget Jones. In a Hampstead Heath scene, Bridget wears a Turnbull & Asser shirt beneath a cardigan - a quiet homage to the timeless style of Mark Darcy. As a hidden detail, the costume team monogrammed Darcy’s initials onto the shirt, an element unseen on screen but instrumental Zellweger’s characterisation. Beyond the film, our classic shirting also graced the cover of British Vogue’s February 2025 issue, where Zellweger, styled in a crisp striped Turnbull & Asser shirt beneath a tweed gilet, evokes the enduring elegance of Bridget Jones.
As we draw the curtain on our 140th year, this series has celebrated the enduring influence of Turnbull & Asser – from the silver screen to the royal household, from the hands of master craftsmen to the vision of our new Creative Director. In the 21st century, our name continues to signify character, precision, and timeless style. With each stitch, each collar, and each understated detail, we honour a legacy that bridges past and present, proving that true craftsmanship is not merely preserved – it is ever-evolving.
