2023 CHRISTMAS LIGHTS INSPIRED BY BESPOKE TAILORING ON SAVILE ROW
Savile Row, the home of bespoke tailoring, will debut its Christmas lights on Thursday 16th November 2023. The lights will feature illuminated golden shears cutting through a glittering swathe of ‘fabric’, illuminating the road from the corner of Clifford Street to the corner of Burlington Gardens, adjacent to the Royal Academy of Arts.
Jenny Caseborne, Head of Portfolio at The Pollen Estate said: “The Pollen Estate is delighted to introduce new Christmas lights on Savile Row, commencing the festive period at this iconic destination. The lights capture the essence of craftsmanship perfectly, with the icon of the shears at the forefront. Everyone is welcome to visit Savile Row to experience our new lights this festive season.”
With sustainability in mind, the 5,154 LEDs use extra-low energy and elements of the decorations have been printed on 100% recyclable plastic. This process reduces the use of aluminium, and materials can be recycled and reused afterwards, minimising waste and reducing energy consumption.
In celebration of the Christmas lights being switched on, the following tailors and retailers will be open late, offering festive treats, drinks and more: Cad & The Dandy, clothsurgeon, Cremieux, Gaziano & Girling, Gieves & Hawkes, Davies & Son, Drake’s, Holland & Sherry, Maurice Sedwell, Norton & Sons, The Service and The Deck, as well as the newly opened Daniel Hanson (bespoke dressing gowns), Fedro (bespoke tailor) and Marcel Rodrigues (bespoke hatmaker). Italian heritage stationery brand Pineider on Clifford Street will offer complimentary personalisation, and Thom Sweeney on Old Burlington Street will also be joining the Christmas festivities. Customers can also expect live music at Drake’s. The retailers will be showcasing their winter collections, with plenty of ready-to-wear and accessories available to buy for Christmas.
