Products and Aesthetic
As of 2012, AllSaints Spitalfields sells menswear, womenswear, footwear, and accessories through its department store locations, stand-alone retail stores and its website. Aesthetically, AllSaints is known for offering sharp edge, directional clothing with a muted palette dominated by blacks, browns, whites and grays. In reviews by fashion and style critics, AllSaints' clothes have variously been described as "British chic rock 'n' roll", a "romantically pre-aged look...that evokes the past and a post-apocalyptic future." The company's retail stores are best known for the exposed brick, weathered wood and metal in their interior and the large exterior wall of antique sewing machines that often frame their entrance.

Famous quotes containing the words products and/or aesthetic:
“All that is told of the sea has a fabulous sound to an inhabitant of the land, and all its products have a certain fabulous quality, as if they belonged to another planet, from seaweed to a sailor’s yarn, or a fish story. In this element the animal and vegetable kingdoms meet and are strangely mingled.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“We Americans have always considered Hollywood, at best, a sinkhole of depraved venality. And, of course, it is. It is not a Protective Monastery of Aesthetic Truth. It is a place where everything is incredibly expensive.”
—David Mamet (b. 1947)
