Simon Jersey launches new collection

December 2006

Simon Jersey, the UK's leading corporate and workwear specialist has launched a new brochure with Spring's latest colours: amethyst, chocolate, oatmeal and silver grey.

The new 48 page brochure showcases a collection of workwear which is perfect for many work environments including hospitality, retail, professional services, domestic cleaning and logistics, with all garments stylish, practical and built for comfort.

There are a raft of new additions to the tunic range, including a new stand collar version with a cut-out key-hole feature at the neck, available in plain black or cherry red, or trimmed with contrasting colours. And the ever-popular asymmetrical tunic is now joined by a version with a concealed zip and feature button, available in five colours.

New styles have been added to the shirting section, with stylish double cuffs now available. Blouses are reflecting catwalk trends, with puffed sleeves, and feminine gathering around the chest, and there are complementary accessories for men and women. The tunic colour palette has expanded to include aubergine and chocolate, with the ever-popular black remaining a best seller. And beauty tunics have expanded to include a new chocolate tunic, asymmetrical tunic with trim, and the pinstripe range now incorporates matching trousers and skirt.

All garments are perfect for personalisation, including embroidery, which portrays a professional edge as well as making staff easily identifiable to customers.

Simon Jersey's managing director Heiko Rees comments: "This new catalogue builds on the success of our newly launched main catalogue, with a wide selection of new products for customers."

"The evidence from customers is overwhelming: smart and comfortable uniforms can play a major part in building team confidence and giving employees a strong sense of corporate identity in every work situation. We believe that this is crucial in today's marketplace, and this new collection offers unrivalled choice at great value."
