Whispered poetry, stitched in wool, linen, cotton, and cashmere - Hannoh Wessel’s garments are dialogues with history, material, and memory. From raw-edged Harris tweed coats embroidered with delicate gold thread to voluminous sleeves inspired by 17th-century tailoring, each piece carries the weight of craft and the lightness of poetry. Wessel layers inspirations: Savile Row precision, utilitarian workwear, the sculptural silhouettes of historical dress, and the quiet simplicity of Scandinavian clothing. His colours, too, tell stories — a serendipitous oxblood red, discovered on an electrical socket, becomes a central thread, dyed into natural fibres with cold-dye techniques that give fabrics depth, richness, and tonal complexity. Produced in collaboration with small, family-run Italian ateliers, these garments are built to last. They resist the noise of fast fashion, rooted instead in natural fibres that age with grace. For Wessel, true luxury is not spectacle but care — slow fashion that speaks softly, but with lasting resonance.
