Unfortunately, like most Holly-weird fads it quickly fizzled out, leaving many disgruntled followers (us) reaching for their cobwebbed razors. shaving, however, doesn’t necessarily have to be torturous, especially when you’re using good grooming utensils. The Penhaligon’s brand produces the most decadent shaving sets unique in both purpose and design. The nickelson set is luxuriously hand-finished, featuring a streamlined razor with a Gillette Mach3 blade and a shaving brush made from silky-smooth badger hair. penhaligons.com

high-esteem that when they are given a new lease of life we can feel apprehensive as to whether it will tarnish our much-loved
fashions. Burberry has recently eschewed its traditional print, stepping into a more
iridescent limelight with the Prorsum collection. Christopher Bailey has produced his most stylish collection yet, pushing men to step forward into a more futuristic glossy alternative to plainer design styles. For the fearless we recommend the neon-coloured trench – guaranteed to add a unique finesse to your outfit.mrporter.com
