Wallpaper* - Milan Design Week
For Milan Design Week, and as part of the prestigious Furniture Fair, Wallpaper* magazine invited Wallace Sewell and Designtex to present their bold new upholstery fabric in an unexpected way. Their vision, A bespoke tailored jacket, crafted in collaboration with legendary Savile Row tailor Gieves & Hawkes.
Using Wallace Sewell’s Clerkenwell fabric, a striking striped wool sateen woven in partnership with Designtex at the historic Hold Brothers textile mill in West Yorkshire, Gieves & Hawkes created a distinctive boating jacket that blends tradition with innovation.
The entire process was filmed in stunning 4K Ultra HD by Sony, capturing every detail of the craftsmanship. This high-definition documentary was showcased throughout the Milan exhibition, bringing the story to life.
