Build good foundations What you wear to work matters. That’s why, over the past decade, we’ve perfected the building blocks of a modern professional wardrobe.

From sketch to final product, we celebrate craftsmanship at every stage of the design and manufacturing process, sourcing bespoke fabrics and working with expert artisans and family-run mills.

Unlike other brands, we cut the patterns for all our garments here in our London atelier and our expert design team hand drape our signature details, making them unique to every piece.

We offer a designer-level cut and finish without a wholesale mark-up, so you get incredible quality without the designer price tag. Whether it’s our expertly crafted tailoring or ever-reliable dresses, our collections are designed with longevity front of mind.

Timeless, high quality and always versatile, these are the foundational pieces you can rely on day in, day out – no matter what’s on your agenda.

Each garment is lovingly fitted on real women Your love-forever work wardrobe starts here. (not on computers) to ensure the perfect, thefoldlondon.com/foundations tailored-to-you fit.
