Bespoke TREND custom tailors est. 1972 (via Hannibal Part II: Little Red Riding Revenge)

‘Hannibal fans beware: within this post lurks spoilers! The image of a young woman in a red riding jacket often brings one thing to mind: little girls being devoured by wolves disguised as kindly old grandmothers. The Red Riding Hood story dates back to the 14th century; in the original tale, the wolf serves up the grandmother’s flesh and blood to the little girl, who unwittingly eats it before climbing naked into bed with the wolf.

For those of us who grew up with an axeman to save the day, the image of the wolf bedding down a girl with a belly full of cannibalized flesh is carnal, and vicious –– and certainly fitting for a show like Hannibal, which takes many of the visual cues for its macabre aesthetic from both art and the stories and philosophies we have interwoven with art. Hannibal even takes on its own Red Riding Hood in Margot Verger, a young woman who has grown up under the abuses of both her father and her brother, both of whom are practically nobility in the pork industry. Brother Mason has managed to raise a line of pigs that eat live human flesh, and itches to feed Margot to them –– having grown up around the casual violence and slaughter of the slaughterhouse, he takes a sick pleasure in discovering new forms of violence. This is where Trend comes in, clothing Margot in a red riding jacket for the pivotal scene in which Margot is presented before the flesh-eating pigs.

Bespoke TREND custom tailors est. 1972 (via Hannibal Part III: Blumenkrantz)

Fans of Hannibal may find this suit familiar from the second season of Hannibal, but super fans –– the kind itching for something new –– might recall this fabric from a behind-the-scenes shot posted to Twitter by producer Bryan Fuller.  In the tweet, Fuller presented a number of options for upcoming suits for Dr. Lecter, including this very bold, very bright red check.

Checks can be a difficult fabric to work with for a number of reasons. First, it is distracting to the eye when the checks do not line up accurately, particularly so when the print is as bold as this one, so great care must be taken to cut the suit so that the finished jacket will have matched patterns. Second, the check can be difficult to arrange so that it flatters the patron’s body type and does not create any visually jarring lines. Additionally, because the jacket and vest are so bold, it is important that other details are more subtle: for that reason, we selected plain black buttons and matched the checks on the pockets so they would blend in almost seamlessly.

And of all of Hannibal’s suits, this is perhaps the one suited best to the screen and less so the real world. Few are flamboyant enough to wear a print like this one –– actor and former dancer Mads Mikkelsen certainly has an easier time of it, with his Danish good looks, broad shoulders and immaculate posture, but he is also aided by studio lighting and art direction that mutes the pattern. Still, that is one more thing unique about this bespoke piece –– you are unlikely to see it anywhere but on-screen!
