<\/figure>\n\n\n\nSince the inception of the studio way back in 2009, my intention was always to go beyond bespoke collections for clients. I wanted to offer services for larger corporations \u2013 helping with forecasting, future direction, redesign and sourcing. More recently, we\u2019ve expanded our focus to include the circular economy and sustainability in collections, while delivering a brand community through design collaborations, such as our project with Wagamama and Pangaia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We\u2019ve used our technical knowledge in sizing, product development and sourcing to provide brand checker services for global products and create technical manuals to help suppliers deliver quality garments. These also help buyers understand typical timelines and required planning, ensuring a smooth execution \u2013 like the agnostic playbook we developed for Hilton in partnership with StiR Creative Collective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This year alone, we\u2019ve delivered several projects for global brands. From design packages for the well-known restaurant group Vapiano to technical workbooks for new collections for a global energy company, our team has tackled a diverse range of challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019m proud of our incredible team, whose combined years of experience and education in design and manufacture allow us to deliver these uniquely tailored solutions. In the complex world of brand, garment design and construction, their expertise is what makes all the difference.

Thomas McAnulty | Fulham Pier<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Since joining Field Grey as a designer earlier this year, I\u2019ve been involved in quite a few projects, but none I could truly call my own. Designing a collection for front-of-house reception staff and doormen for Fulham Pier has been a great opportunity to work on something from start to finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n By far my favourite part has been creating a truly bespoke doorman\u2019s coat, made in London using beautiful coating fabrics and custom trims. As someone passionate about the technical aspects of clothing design, I\u2019ve learned so much and found endless inspiration in this project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n From creating the initial design to sourcing fabrics and trims and overseeing the coat\u2019s production, I\u2019ve been involved in every stage, from concept to manufacture. To pair with the coat, I\u2019ve sourced British brands for accessories, including wool scarves, handmade leather gloves and a bespoke doorman\u2019s cap that perfectly matches the coat. Along the way, I\u2019ve learnt more and more about British heritage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I can\u2019t wait to see the finished product and share it with the client! Amie Hartland | Spencer House<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n A project I\u2019ve been passionate about in 2024 has been designing a custom uniform collection for Spencer House, one of London\u2019s most distinguished private event venues. <\/p>\n\n\n\n With its grand interiors and architectural beauty, the venue exudes timelessness and luxury. The historical significance of the house, with its connection to Lady Diana Spencer\u2019s family, adds even more depth to the atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We knew we had to design something that echoed the venue\u2019s rich legacy while feeling modern and luxurious at the same time. The design process has been a dream and the house is a treasure trove of inspiration, from the intricate moldings to the stunning colour palette of its rooms. We wanted the uniforms to feel like an extension of that beauty \u2013 elegant, but with depth and nuance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n One of the most exciting aspects is how layered the designs have become. Every element of the uniform has been carefully thought out, with textures and materials chosen to mirror the interiors of Spencer House. We wanted to create a feeling of continuity between the staff\u2019s uniforms and the magnificent space around them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The process has been wonderfully collaborative too. From the first meeting, it was clear the Spencer House team had a strong vision for the uniforms, and our conversations have continued to be incredibly creative and constructive. We\u2019re now at the toiling and sampling stages, and I\u2019m beyond excited to see how the collection develops into 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The journey has been an incredible one so far, and I feel so fortunate to be part of a project that blends heritage with innovation. Chris Mossom | The Sloane Club<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Sloane Club is a sanctuary forged on the premise of connection and community. Originally launched in 1922 as a haven for those who served in the armed forces, it now offers an escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Not just a place to stay, but somewhere to share experiences with friends, enjoy fine or relaxed dining, indulge in holistic treatments or just unwind and recharge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The club offers beautifully designed collaborative spaces to unwind, connect and dine. From bespoke furniture by designers like Russell Sage to the thoughtful curation of every detail, the Sloane team\u2019s uncompromising approach has been a constant source of inspiration throughout this project. This ethos has very much informed the working collection we\u2019ve created, blending the club\u2019s rich heritage with a modern, lifestyle-focused approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As with the club itself, every thought has been given to the function of the collection, ensuring it captures the same modernity and ease that the space represents. Deconstructed tailoring in sumptuous velvets nods to the club’s old school sartorial elegance, while a fuller pleated trouser silhouettes pay homage to its 1922 origins. The result is a working wardrobe with a nonchalant elegance that is fitting of its surroundings. Anna Bailey | Readywear<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Since joining Field Grey as copywriter a few months ago, I\u2019ve been struck by the quality of craftsmanship not only of the bespoke pieces but also the Readywear collection. Everything from sleeve garters and neckerchiefs to tailored trousers and bib shirts has been designed to be not only functional but also a pleasure to wear \u2013 truly reinventing what work apparel can be. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Readywear has been part of some great collabs this year, including Readywear x Peper Harow socks in gorgeously bold autumnal colours \u2013 an effortless way to lift any outfit. And exciting new releases include relaxed-fit elasticated trousers, which blend utility with a refined, ready-to-wear look, plus fresh colourways for the timeless Readywear bib shirt. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Readywear pieces are so versatile, they work seamlessly as a complete uniform solution or paired with bespoke pieces to enhance and bring a whole look together. They\u2019re also perfect for creating cohesion across different brands within a company\u2019s umbrella. Above all though, they make the wearer feel fantastic \u2013 and who can ask for more from a uniform?<\/p>\n\n\n\n I love how Field Grey Readywear incorporates branding through colours and motifs to give clients something uniquely theirs, too. A great example is the quirky embroidered quince on the Readywear aprons used for the newly opened Quince bakery. The pop of yellow against the Olive Green is a playful touch that perfectly reflects pastry chef Anna Higham\u2019s relaxed ethos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I can\u2019t wait to see what Readywear has up its enviably stylish sleeve for 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We\u2019re excited to step into 2025 and look forward to continuing our journey of blending fashion, function, and sustainability. Join us as we craft new stories and explore creative horizons in the year ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.field-grey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/fulhampier-600x400.jpg\")
