Cooking up a storm

Riffing on a chef’s jacket, the Dennis by Sussex-based label Dammy, is handmade in the UK from dry waxed cotton manufactured by Halley Stevensons in Dundee. 10% of each jacket sold goes to The Lumule Foundation founded by model Dennis Okwera, after whom the jacket takes its name. The foundation supports children and families following the aftermath of a 30-year civil war in northern Uganda, where it is estimated around 1.6 million people were displaced by the conflict, with an impact left to the community and remains infrastructure.£320, dammy.co.uk
