Stylish and practical gardening jackets<\/a><\/li>

Are you a dressing gown or overalls gardener?<\/a><\/li>

Women’s fashion in gardens over the years<\/a><\/li><\/ul>
It’s not just Monty (and a host of other gardeners, including Great Dixter<\/a>‘s Fergus Garrett <\/a>and Sissinghurst’s<\/a> Troy Scott Smith<\/a>) who is wearing this originally French working jacket, which has been worn in various incarnations for a very long time. According to The Times<\/em>,<\/a> the bleu du travail<\/em> is increasingly favoured among film stars and fashionistas. <\/p>

But for gardeners, while these lovely blue jackets look good, they are also brilliantly practical too – big pockets, heavy-duty material that is durable and comfortable, dark colours so all those mud stains don’t show.<\/p>

Monty has mentioned he often gets clothes from a small independent company, Old Town<\/a>, based in Norfolk, which is currently taking orders over the phone and by email. In the meantime, we’ve scoured the internet to find the most convincing lookalikes of the famous jacket across a range of price points. <\/p>
