Daisy Knatchbull Makes History Opening The Deck London on Savile Row
On September 14 Daisy Knatchbull is making history by opening her made-to-measure women’s clothing brand, The Deck London, on Savile Row. The Deck London will be the first Savile Row tailor to cater exclusively to women. Daisy reveals how, in 2016, she first shook up the bespoke scene by appearing at Royal Ascot in a Lock & Co. top hat and tails by Huntsman & Sons, the Savile Row tailor where her great-grandfather, Lord Louis Mountbatten, was a client. (Nicknamed “Dickie,” Greg Wise and Charles Dance have portrayed him on The Crown.) But as Daisy tells it, she derived fashion inspiration from her great-grandmother, the legendary renegade, Lady Edwina Mountbatten, and her maternal grandmother, Sylvia Cooper. As the media makes noise about the death of the suit, Daisy Knatchbull explains why COVID-19 will not kill off the style of finely crafted suit she is making for women – and with her all female team – at 19 Savile Row.
