LONDON FASHION WEEK: AN IMMERSIVE SOIRÉE WITH DE FICHIER
Having previously presented with Fashion Scout and featured in the evening schedule of London Fashion Week, this September de FICHIER returned to LFW’s evening schedule with an immersive presentation, inviting guests to curate the showcase and select the models’ looks—ushering in a new era where the audience becomes part of the creative process.
Episode 4 reimagines femininity with a bold spirit of exploration, celebrating the modern woman's strength and grace. This collection focuses on the natural power of the female form, with each garment designed to reflect both resilience and elegance. Structured shoulders and carefully tailored silhouettes give the pieces a confident, commanding presence, while subtle design details add an air of sophistication. The collection artfully blends tradition with innovation, creating a look that feels both classic and forward-thinking.
de FICHIER collections emphasise luxury and sustainability by using ethically sourced, high-quality materials such as fine lamb wool, alpaca wool, leather, silk, and lace. These materials are selected not just for their beauty but also for their alignment with de FICHIER's sustainability principles. For example, lamb and alpaca wool are renewable resources, while leather and silk are sourced from partners committed to ethical practices. By collaborating with prestigious UK suppliers like Pongee Silk and Abraham Moon, the brand ensures that each garment is made with the finest fabrics available.
Crafted in partnership with London-based manufacturers, including Gosia and Forma Leather, de FICHIER offers a range of locally made garments, from elegant dresses to structured coats and tailored trousers. The close relationship with independent fashion studios in North London ensures a high standard of craftsmanship and quality, staying true to the brand’s London roots.
Episode 4 also marks de FICHIER's expansion into jewellery and accessories, a significant step forward for the brand. Partnering with Carson Gray Sustainable Lab, the collection incorporates lab-grown diamonds into the designs. These diamonds, created using the high-pressure, high-temperature (HPHT) method and certified by the GIA, add a refined touch of luxury. By integrating these eco-conscious elements into the garments, de FICHIER reinforces its commitment to sustainable practices without compromising on style or elegance.
Each piece in Episode 4 is designed to be more than just clothing - a thoughtful fusion of fashion and craftsmanship, created with longevity in mind. The collection represents de FICHIER’s vision of modern luxury, where beauty, quality, and sustainability coexist harmoniously.
Born in 2022 by Yubo Zhang, de FICHIER is a brand that embodies the essence of completeness, where refinement and the passage of time only enhance its allure. Each piece is a testament to meticulous craftsmanship, with fabrics and materials handpicked to meet the highest quality standards. The brand is dedicated to infusing every creation with a sense of uniqueness, elegance, and sophistication.
