Katherine Hooker
Truly stylish women know that the key to making a look their own is tailoring. As fashion gets faster and trends get ever more frazzled, a beautifully-cut jacket and a just-so silk shirt have become the most attractive option for achieving quiet cool in the midst of the madness.
Katherine Hooker has been hitting the nail on the luxe-minimal head for eleven years. What started out as a custom service for a handful of private clients has turned into a Kings Road atelier with four collections per year, as well as a custom made service for the city’s best-dressed style setters.
Hooker’s designs are known for their understated refinement and a razor-sharp cut. Jackets are cut high under the arms to achieve a long, lean silhouette, and shapes are rigorously thought-through to make sure they’re as relevant ten years from now as they are the day they are bought.
Fabrications are key. In summer the finest raw silks, silk satins and lightweight cottons are used to create her pieces, while in winter, British Isles wools and cashmeres feature alongside Hooker’s trademark tweed – the love of which has driven her to travel the globe in search of the very best for her range. Each piece – from ready-to-wear to custom items – is hand made in England with an exacting attention to detail and a refined finish.
The brand’s unique mix of ready-to-wear and custom-made offers a brilliant edge for customers seeking individuality. Over 150 different fabrications in a kaleidoscope of colours and with innumerable finish options give Katherine Hooker clients the chance to create an entirely original garment, with a designer who understands inherently the desire for uniqueness.
The collection is available online, in the London shop and at various pop-up events and trunk shows in New York and throughout the United States. For a full list of services and products, please visit our website at www.katherinehooker.com
