Double Take: Kathryn Sargent and Patrick Cox Design connoisseurs Kathryn Sargent and Patrick Cox give their verdict on what's new. Kathryn Sargent, 39 Appointed as Savile Row's first female head cutter in 2009, Yorkshire-born Sargent started her own tailoring business in 2012. She is seldom found out of a suit. kathrynsargent.com Patrick Cox, 50 The Canadian footwear designer Cox is known for making loafers desirable in the 1990s. He now fuses traditional and avant-garde elements in his work for Geox. geox.com FOOD Jalapeño Chilli Great British Pork Crackling, £1.89, by Mr Trotter, available in-store at Selfridges Kathryn: I'm from the North, so I'm not scared of this kind of stuff. I like experimental food combinations, and these were moreish. Great with a pint of traditional ale. Patrick: The crunchy bits are delicious, but I could have done without the bigger pieces - they have a gooey bit inside that tastes like a mouthful of lard. MUSIC Liquid Spirit, £9.99, by Gregory Porter, from amazon.co.uk Listen here: youtube.com Kathryn: I am really into jazz and 1960s music, so his version of The "In" Crowd ticks all my boxes. His voice is fantastic; I could listen to this album again and again. And I like his suit. Patrick: Though this is soulful jazz rather than that annoying experimental jazz, it's not my thing and sounds like something my dad would listen to. I prefer deep house or dance. ARCHITECTURE Homeshell, by Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners, at "Richard Rogers RA: Inside Out" at the Royal Academy until 8 September Kathryn: This kind of low-cost house is the future. I like how the sizes and shapes of the rooms can be altered to individualise the interior. Patrick: Clean, simple, modern, genius. They get contemporary design out there and don't have that nasty 1960s prefab feeling. PICNIC Three-piece picnic cutlery set, £880, by Hermès (London W1) Kathryn: It's a pretentious piece of kit. You could have a set of handmade British cutlery chauffeur-delivered to your table at Glyndebourne for that price. Patrick: This would make a great present: the colours are chic and, of course, it's Hermès. But for that price the felt case is a disappointment. FASHION Pink-banded wool roll-neck, £620, and PU tie skirt, £360, by JW Anderson, from brownsfashion.com Kathryn: This is the antithesis of what I do: these pieces are not made to last, in either quality or style. Polyurethane is not my thing - and try riding a Boris Bike in that top. Patrick: I always wear turtlenecks and winter whites, but I think the pink band looks somewhat impractical and the skirt a little messy for day-to-day wear.
