Christophers Jackets and Outfits
What Is the Christophers Jacket Collection?
The Christophers jacket collection is built from the wardrobe of Steven Soderbergh’s 2025 film The Christophers, a black comedy starring Ian McKellen as Julian Sklar, a once-celebrated London painter, and Michaela Coel as Lori Butler, the art restorer his estranged children hire to secretly complete his unfinished work. Costume designer Eleanor Baker built Julian’s look around corduroy and knitwear in warm, lived-in tones, and this collection follows that same material language across corduroy, denim, and cotton outerwear made to order with custom sizing and worldwide shipping.
The Film: Steven Soderbergh’s The Christophers
The Christophers premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival in September 2025 before a limited US theatrical release through Neon in April 2026 and a UK release through Picturehouse Entertainment in May 2026. Directed by Steven Soderbergh and written by Ed Solomon, the film follows Julian Sklar, a broke and reclusive former art star now earning a living recording personalized video messages for fans, whose estranged children hire art restorer Lori Butler to forge a set of his long-abandoned portraits, the titular Christophers, so they can be sold as an inheritance. The film holds a 96 percent critics score on Rotten Tomatoes and has been widely praised for the performances of its two leads.
Julian Sklar’s Corduroy and Denim Wardrobe
Julian Sklar’s wardrobe reads as bohemian grandeur past its prime: scarves, chore coats, and designer knitwear worn with an unbelted dressing gown and track pants at home. The corduroy jacket in this collection reflects the warm-toned corduroy pieces central to that look, built in a shirt-style collar with a buttoned front and five total pockets for a lived-in, working-artist feel. The denim jacket takes the same silhouette into a cooler blue tone for a more everyday layering option. Both pair naturally with the trench coat, built in an antique brown cotton with a double-breasted closure for the more formal, gallery-world side of Julian’s character.
Lori Butler’s Grounded, Practical Layers
Where Julian is flamboyant, Lori Butler is deliberately understated. The brown jacket in earthy cotton and the mustard hooded coat both reflect a practical, restorer’s wardrobe built for working with canvas and paint rather than making an entrance. The jacket and vest set brings the same mustard and brown palette into a layered two-piece build for buyers who want the complete Lori-inspired silhouette in one order.
Made to Order and Where This Fits
Every piece in the Christophers collection is made to order with custom sizing available at no extra charge and worldwide shipping with full tracking. This collection sits within the wider Movie Outfits Collection, alongside character wardrobes from across film and television. For more London-set and character-driven fashion beyond this film, the celebrity inspired outfits collection covers actor wardrobes across dozens of public figures, and the TV and web series wear collection covers the same character-first approach for television.
