Setchu’s Satoshi Kuwata brought a bit of his native Kyoto to Venice via London’s Savile Row, where in his formative years he worked at Huntsman & Sons. During the opening days of La Biennale, the Japanese designer unveiled a special project at Palazzo Venier, showing a few bespoke tailored suits made in collaboration with Davies & Son, the oldest independent Savile Row tailor, founded in 1803.
” The 2023 LVMH Prize winner also challenged Savile Row’s strict rules of tailoring, working his charm to get Davies & Son out of their comfort zone; after lengthy discussions and fittings, they came up with three bespoke non-gender-specific outfits—a black suit, a black coat dress, and a white coat whose hem opens up in an extra-long train.
