The Fold May 2024 - Just Arrived

Modern. Luxury. Workwear.

Welcome to The Fold. We’re an award-winning British brand dressing women to achieve their ambitions.

‘ Here in our London atelier, we do things distinctly differently. I see first hand how much time and effort our talented design team invests into each and every piece – bringing to life unapologetically feminine designs that let your personality shine through, whether in the office or at an occasion.

True craftsmanship and expert tailoring are at the heart of our collections – in other words, we make clothes how they ‘used’ to be made. We do multiple fittings on real women to ensure the perfect fit (this isn’t a given these days!), cut many of our patterns in-house, and hand drape details in the traditional way, working with highly skilled tailors and seamstresses.

We source our beautiful fabrics from the best mills in the world, where they’re often designed exclusively for us. Plus, our shoes and belts are handcrafted from the finest leather by worldrenowned artisans in Italy, so they’ll stand the test of time.

Timeless, high quality and beautifully detailed, these are pieces we hope you treasure in your wardrobe forever. ’

Polly McMaster, founder and CEO of The Fold

We’re proud to have opened a brand new store in the Royal Exchange Buildings, in the heart of London’s financial district.

We enlisted the help of a talented all-female design team to create a luxurious, considered space, using only the finest fittings and finishes. Our expert stylists are on hand to help you find your perfect Fold pieces, and if you need adjustments, our best-in-class alterations service is available.

Pop in to see us or you can head online to book a personal shopping appointment. We can’t wait to welcome you there.
