RHEN Designs was created in 2017 by Rosalind Noctor, who after 11 years as a professional dancer, re-trained in Men’s Tailoring on Savile Row. All garments are designed and created on a made to order basis in her Southeast London studio, each garment made by hand, honouring age-old tailoring techniques.
“My experience in dance and on stage, gives me a feeling and open eye for creating clothes that move and tell a story whether this be for performance or everyday life.”
The pieces are unique and often one of a kind, with incredible attentions to detail such as hand-finished pockets, beautiful bindings, stamped labels, hand-painted details, and ceramic buttons.
“RHEN makes for men and women, often blurring the line between the two. Each garment is made with movement in mind, for ease of living and the pleasure of comfort. Natural fibres are a great inspiration in the design process, bringing texture, longevity, and functionality to the finished piece.”
Above is the Pause Coat. A beautiful coat made from cotton quilt with a washed calico lining.
RHEN's garments read like a celebration of natural fibres, with the use of raw hems, undyed cottons with natural flecks and the earthy tones of natural dyed fabrics with nettle and bracken. Vintage fabrics compliment the heritage of the skills she uses.
Her Baggies have become a staple trouser amongst our Cloth House team and they look incredible on everyone, whether constructed in handwoven cotton, linen, or washed wool.
