Elthorne Bridge × London Fashion Week 2025
Elthorne Bridge Atelier presented its debut collection, Fustianburg, at London Fashion Week 2025 with Fashion Crossover London, marking a significant moment for the brand. The showcase brought together an international selection of designers celebrated for their creativity, craft, and vision, providing Elthorne Bridge with a platform to present its signature approach to modern British tailoring.
The Fustianburg collection takes its name from fustian—a durable cloth once central to working life—and from Fustianopolis, the community of textile makers who built their identity around it. Inspired by the old mills and the communities that sustained them, the collection transforms materials historically associated with utility into refined, contemporary silhouettes that celebrate continuity and craft. Featuring leather and corduroy, both linked to workwear, the pieces add texture, structure, and a sense of artisanal quality. Fustianburg is both a tribute to collective heritage and a fresh interpretation of how these stories can live in the present.
On the runway, the collection emphasized clean lines, precise tailoring, and a contemporary reinterpretation of heritage craftsmanship. Each piece demonstrated Elthorne Bridge’s ability to merge tradition with forward-thinking design, showing how tailoring can remain relevant and innovative in today’s global fashion landscape.
The presentation offered exposure to press, buyers, stylists, and international tastemakers, positioning Elthorne Bridge firmly within the conversation about contemporary menswear. LFW25 was more than a showcase—it was a statement, highlighting the brand’s commitment to craft, identity, and innovation on a global stage.
