After nearly 16 years on the Denneweg in The Hague, Vanità will be leaving the current premises as of 1 September.

Not because it’s no longer possible, but because it’s time for a new way of working.

Rising fixed costs, parking policies in the city centre and the changing retail landscape make it less logical to maintain an open shop.

In our new studio at the BINK36 building, I will work by appointment only – allowing me to welcome clients in a calm, focused setting, with full attention to fit, style and quality – and with ample parking right at the door.

The service, craftsmanship and style remain exactly as you know them. Only the location will change.

De Barbour Ashby is korter dan de Beaufort of Bristol, en wordt gezien als de modernere pasvorm van de klassieke Bedale wax jas, De jas is te kort om er een jasje onder te kunnen dragen.

De voorkant van de jas heeft de klassieke layout van zakken, grote opgezette zakken met klep op de heupen en schuine insteekzakken voor uw handen met moleskin voering in de taille. De rug van de jas is afgewerkt met zijsplitten met verborgen drukknopen, zodat u deze kunt sluiten indien nodig.

Alternatieven:
Zelfde lengte, ruimere pasvorm: Barbour Bedale
Langere lengte, zelfde pasvorm: Barbour Bristol
Langere lengte, ruimere pasvorm: Barbour Beaufort

The Barbour Ashby is shorter in length than the Beaufort or Bristol, and considered to be the modern fit version of the classic Bedale waxed jacket. It is too short to wear a suit or sports coat underneath.

The front has the classic layout of pockets; large bellow pockets on the hips and moleskin lined handwarmer pockets in the waist. The back of the coat is plain and has side vents with hidden poppers to keep them shut when needed.

Alternative options:
Same length, wider fit: Barbour Bedale
Longer length, same fit: Barbour Bristol
Longer length, wider fit: Barbour Beaufort

The Bedale waxed jacket has the same classic relaxed and wide fit as the Barbour Beaufort, but is shorter in length. It ends mid-hip and is usually too short to wear over a suit or sports jacket.

The front has the classic layout of pockets; large bellow pockets on the hips and moleskin lined handwarmer pockets in the waist. The back of the coat is plain and has side vents with poppers to keep them shut when needed. The sleeves have ribbed cuffs to keep the wind out.

Alternative options:
Same length, modern fit: Barbour Ashby
Longer length, same fit: Barbour Beaufort
Longer length: modern fit: Barbour Bristol

The Barbour Bristol is the modern fitting younger brother of Barbour's all-time classic waxed coat Beaufort. It has a similar length, over the seat, and fits perfectly over a suit or sports coat. The fit is more trim than the Beaufort, but nowhere near tight or slim. It is still an outerwear garment, meant for layering. The Bristol is the most preferred fit for our clients these days.

The front has the classic layout of pockets; large bellow pockets on the hips and moleskin lined handwarmer pockets in the waist. The back of the coat is plain and without side vents.

Alternative options:
Same length, wider fit: Barbour Beaufort
Shorter length, same fit: Barbour Ashby
Shorter length, wider fit: Barbour Bedale

The Beaufort is the most classic version of all the Barbour jackets. It is long enough to wear over your suit or sports coat and has a classic relaxed and rather wide fit. Perfect if you prefer to layer-up underneath and/or enjoy a classic wide fitting coat.

The front has the classic layout of pockets; large bellow pockets on the hips and moleskin lined handwarmer pockets in the waist. The back of the coat has a large through and through 'game pocket'. Useful for storing a scarf or a news paper for us city folks.

Alternative options:
Same length, modern fit: Barbour Bristol
Shorter length, same fit: Barbour Bedale
Shorter length, modern fit: Barbour Ashby
