The Fold, a renowned women’s tailoring brand, has unveiled its very first product collaboration, and it’s a captivating venture into the world of art and fashion. In an era where the fashion-art connection is flourishing, The Fold has teamed up with British artist Sue Arrowsmith for a limited-edition collection of only six exquisite pieces, officially launched this week.
This exclusive capsule collection was meticulously designed in The Fold’s London atelier and crafted from silk chiffons and jacquards with a shimmering winter palette, all sourced from the picturesque Lake Como in Italy. What sets these designs apart is the incorporation of Arrowsmith’s signature willow motif, inspired by her renowned «Dance Through the Darkness» painting.
This unique collaboration embodies The Fold’s commitment to celebrating female talent at every stage of the design process. The brand has a history of collaborating with highly skilled female artisans, who have lent their expertise to create hand-painted prints and woven jacquards that are integral to the brand’s collections.
Design Director Katya Maschenko was captivated by Arrowsmith’s masterful use of color and texture. This admiration led to an inspired partnership to craft an elevated eveningwear capsule collection that marries the worlds of art and fashion seamlessly.
The Fold, which initially launched in 2012 with a focus on women’s workwear, has since expanded its offerings to include occasionwear, catering to the diverse needs of modern women.
This captivating collection, priced from £350 to £895, is available for fashion enthusiasts at thefoldlondon.com and at the flagship London store located in Chelsea.
