Thomas Tait chooses St James’s for London Fashion Week catwalk show
St James's is hosting Thomas Tait for his sixth season as part of London Fashion Week. The autumn/winter show will be taking place at Carlton House Terrace Garages on Saturday 16 February. This unique location has been transformed by St James’s ready for London Fashion Week.
Thomas Tait’s ready-to-wear demonstrates a unique combination of structure and fluidity, lending a clear aesthetic to the garments and footwear he conceives for his eponymous women’s wear label. Tait rose swiftly to prominence in London and important critics immediately championed him because of the directional refinement and considered detail that is integral to his designs.
