“I love everything about Savile Row—using the techniques that have been around for hundreds of years and making them more modern without breaking them apart”

23rd February 2025

Ruby Slevin’s five-year-old brand Banshee of Savile Row is the only fully bespoke tailoring brand for women on Savile Row—the birthplace of the suiting tradition.

Dublin-born Ms Slevin offered a succinct collection of 13 looks for autumn. She put a playful, personal twist on her tailoring prowess by fusing it with Eleanor Ekserdjian’s prints inspired by Scottish landscapes. The silk linings on her Donegal tweed coats and velvet suits, shirts and accessories such as bow ties, featured patterns from the Armenian artist.

“I love everything about Savile Row—using the techniques that have been around for hundreds of years and making them more modern without breaking them apart,” Ms Slevin said before the show.
