A Glimpse Into Kent & Curwen’s Rich History

Kent & Curwen began its journey nearly a century ago, producing ties for British elite schools like Eton and sporting kits for rowing teams and cricket clubs. By the 1930s, the brand expanded to Hollywood’s cricket scene, dressing icons like Errol Flynn. The royal family’s admiration and David Beckham’s 2016 collaboration brought global attention to the brand, cementing its reputation for quintessential British style.

After navigating financial turbulence, the brand has relaunched under Biem. L. Fdlkk Garment Group, reigniting its vision for timeless yet modern designs.
