Thakoon hits up NY Fashion with see-now, buy-now

Thai-American designer Thakoon Panichgul stormed back into New York Fashion Week after a season out to embrace “see-now, buy-now,” offering a fall/winter collection available to purchase instantly. Eschewing the official spring/summer 2017 season, the label instead offered high-end customers clothes for fall/winter 2016 and with cooler temperatures around the corner he is confident it will pay off. “If I wanted to I could dream and show feathers all the time but that's not what the customer wants,” said the Thai-born, American-raised designer who is beloved by New York's smart women.

Kathryn Sargent made history on Wednesday by becoming the first female master tailor to open her own premises on London's Savile Row — the epicentre of traditional British bespoke tailoring. Sargent, who worked her way up the ranks during 15 years on the prestigious street at Gieves and Hawkes, opened her first tailoring house around the corner in 2012, before seizing the opportunity to move back onto Savile Row in her own right. Having become well-known for her skills in the close-knit Savile Row community, she was offered the chance to open her own premises.
