Daniel Hanson - Dressing Gowns
Wallace Sewell were proud to present a very special collaboration with the renowned slow fashion designer Daniel Hanson. Known for exquisitely crafted dressing gowns, Daniel Hanson had long set the standard for British luxury loungewear—each piece handmade in Nottingham with exceptional attention to detail and an uncompromising finish.
This limited-edition collection brought together tailored silk dressing gowns and coordinating sleep masks, crafted from Wallace Sewell’s signature pure silk scarf fabric. Merging traditional techniques with a fresh perspective on British heritage, the collaboration was a celebration of artistry, craftsmanship, and timeless design.
Founded in 1989 by Daniel and Julie Hanson, the Nottingham-based atelier quickly earned a reputation as the go-to maker for Jermyn Street, Savile Row, and luxury institutions around the world. With their exacting standards, hand-cut silhouettes, and fabrics of unparalleled quality, Daniel Hanson garments had quietly graced the wardrobes of royalty, Hollywood figures, and those who valued both comfort and craft.
The collaboration was born from an instant connection between the two studios, who first met earlier that year and quickly bonded over a shared love of British design, heritage textiles, and, of course, fabric. Wallace Sewell and Daniel Hanson were united by a dedication to colour, quality, and thoughtful craftsmanship—making the partnership a natural and inspired fit.
The pure silk fabric featured in the collection had originally been designed for Wallace Sewell’s signature scarf range. The next iteration of the fabric was designed for ties to be cut from the fabric, on the bias.
Reimagined on a larger scale, the design allowed the interplay of bold colour blocks to truly shine. Two striking silk colourways were initially selected by the Daniel Hanson team to launch the elegant dressing gown collection, with each piece beautifully cut and finished with refined detailing. Two more of the silk designs were used after the initial launch, followed by the experimental collection of Honeycomb dressing gowns.
Offered as a boutique collection, this included pure silk dressing gowns, silk sleep masks, and a selection of garments crafted from Wallace Sewell’s lambswool Honeycomb fabric.
