About

Studio Nicholson is a British minimalist label for women and men, founded in London in 2010 by Nick Wakeman. Wakeman, the brand's creative director, has poured more than 20 years of fashion design experience into building a no-nonsense clothing brand built around a fabric-first approach. "I like clothing not fashion," she says, and the idea behind the label is to make everyday, commonplace garments exceptionally beautiful and flawlessly modern by perfecting, reimagining and modernising the classics. Its first collection was influenced by Wakeman's own wardrobe of shirts, jeans and men's tailored jackets. Menswear launched in 2017 and a debut range of luxury handbags in 2024. Signature pieces include the high-waisted Dordoni Pant, the Ruthe raw denim jean, the Sorte Pant, the Hal Shirt, the Arvine Cardigan, the Moon Shoe and the Airport Bag, and in 2026 it released a formal shoe collaboration with ASICS. Its product pages list most pieces as made in Italy, Japan and the UK, with some made in Spain, using textiles from specialist mills. Studio Nicholson is an independent label led by Wakeman. It has stores in London, Tokyo, Kyoto, Seoul and Beijing and over 300 stockists.

Sydney Pimbley

UK · Est. 2019 · Luxury

Sydney Pimbley is an upcycled UK designer clothing label for women, founded in London in 2019 by designer Sydney Pimbley. A graduate of Central Saint Martins' BA Fashion Design with Knitwear and a recipient of the LVMH Grand Prix Scholarship, Pimbley worked in the couture studio of Maison Margiela, assisting John Galliano, before launching her slow fashion brand. Inspired by her Welsh heritage, she builds ethical luxury collections on the principles of sustainability and authenticity. The label creates dresses, skirts, trousers, shorts, jackets, tops and accessories, many of them one-of-a-kind or made in very small runs. Pieces are handmade in the United Kingdom, using fabrics, trims and embroidery collaged from vintage sources and finished with layers of hand detailing. Her upcycled approach reworks antique and vintage textiles such as silk, cotton and wool rather than relying on new fabric. After the birth of her first child in 2025, Pimbley dedicated her 2026 collection to celebrating the female body through lush antique fabrics. Sydney Pimbley's work has appeared in Vogue Italia, i-D, The Face, Teen Vogue, WWD, Sleek and Metal Magazine. She took part in P.LACE.S, a SHOWstudio and MoMu Antwerp lace exhibition and film.

Natasha Zinko

UK · Est. 2011 · Luxury

Natasha Zinko is a UK luxury designer streetwear label, founded in London in 2011 by designer Natasha Zinko. Originally from Odessa, Ukraine, Zinko graduated with honours in Art and Jewellery Design from Central Saint Martins and became an official member of the British Fashion Council in June 2015. Her label is known for bold, irreverent collections that mix streetwear, experimental silhouettes and statement denim. The range covers dresses, tops, jeans, trousers, shorts, jackets, hoodies and coats, including one-off and limited upcycled pieces. Clothing is made mainly in China and the United Kingdom, and the flagship store WRHS13, an NZ Space with the NATASHKINO matcha café, sits at 17 Brewer Street in Soho. Upcycling is central to the brand, which repurposes vintage garments, particularly denim, and works towards a near-zero-waste, closed-loop production cycle with plastic-free packaging. For its SS20 show, aluminium recycler Alutrade donated 500 cans that were refashioned into corsets, and in 2020 Zinko funded the first reduce-reuse-recycle initiative in Odessa. Natasha Zinko shows at London Fashion Week, where her SS27 show partnered with OnlyFans and featured Katie Price and Kelly Osbourne, and her AW26 show starred Mel B. She has also collaborated with Havaianas.

Rejina Pyo

UK · Est. 2014 · Luxury

Rejina Pyo is a UK designer luxury clothing label for women, founded in London in 2014 by Rejina Pyo. Born in Seoul, Pyo moved to London in 2008 and completed the MA Fashion Design programme at Central Saint Martins, where winning the Han Nefkens Award paved the way for her namesake brand. A designer and painter, she balances Korean and British sensibilities through sculptural silhouettes, unexpected details and an artful use of colour, designing for the modern woman. The label offers shirts, tops, jackets, skirts, trousers, dresses and knitwear, alongside shoes, bags and jewellery. Signature pieces include the Caprice and Robyn shirts, the Cleo taffeta jacket and the quilted Duvet Jacket. Many garments are made in South Korea, its alpaca knitwear is made entirely in Peru, and its jewellery is crafted in Thailand. Taking a slower, more intentional approach, the brand prioritises lower-impact materials, European-sourced fabrics and small-scale manufacturers to create pieces that last. Pyo has won the Samsung Fashion Design Fund and the British Fashion Award for Emerging Talent. The brand opened a Soho store in 2022 and Rejina Pyo 86, a Notting Hill space with homeware and art, in 2025.
