Richard James


Since 1992 Richard James has quickly established a reputation for itself as a leading luxury brand that has set the standard for contemporary tailoring and menswear.

Oakwoods are pleased to announce the successful opening of their new 2500 sq ft  Grade 2 listed Savile Row premises, now known as Richard James House.

The full refurbishment of 3 floors for the bespoke Savile Row Tailors was completed over 16 weeks on-site following the pre-planning and design works completed in the year prior to the start.

Working closely with the team from Richard James, David Thomas Design & Nick Feltham Associates, Oakwoods have produced the transformation of the premises to the new design.

The provision of the bespoke joinery fixtures to incorporate the ready to wear range on the ground floor and the made to measure collection of the first floor also included the cocktail bar.

It’s a space that at once sums up what Richard James is all about. “Purposeful design, and the finish is great,” says David Thomas, the man who oversaw it. “But it’s also comfortable and convivial and relaxed. And it’s not intimidating. Savile Row can be intimidating…”
