Supporting British Fashion, From Craft to Classroom

Two recent stories have stayed with me.


The Princess of Wales’ visit to Hiut Denim shone a light on something often overlooked – that British fashion lives far beyond the runway. It exists in regional workshops, in specialist skills passed down quietly, and in communities built around making things properly.


At the same time, Stella McCartney’s role as Industry Ambassador at Central Saint Martins signals something equally important. Education remains the foundation of our industry’s future. Sustainability, ethics, and responsibility are no longer optional conversations – they are central to how fashion must evolve.


Together, these moments reflect a shared understanding. British fashion excellence depends on care at every stage: who we train, how we produce, and how we value the people behind the work.


As PINTO HERVIA continues to grow, these stories reinforce a belief that progress comes from patience. From respecting craft, supporting education, and building slowly – with intention.


British fashion has always been strongest when it invests in its people. That feels like a future worth committing to.
