Product Description

Tailor to Hollywood's A-list, and a superstar in his own right, Ozwald Boateng is a dynamic force of energy, passion and colour.

About the Actor

Ozwald Boateng once asserted that he took Savile Row to the Paris Catwalk because he loved tradition but also knew that; "If traditions don't evolve, they can die." Alongside the tradition he sought to catalyze, Boateng has also evolved over the years. It has been an ongoing commitment to the refinement of his distinct stylistic cocktail with a focus on the signature Boateng cut famously elongating the client's stature with a higher break and delivering an easy cosmopolitan confidence with a straight shoulder and a pronounced sleeve roll. Orchestrated within the unique shape and drape of his designs he fine-tunes a subtle arsenal of stealth and sophisticated detailing that run through each garment.
But it is the colour that amplifies these quieter acts of respectful revolution, the cuts and the detailing. It's the colour that does what colour in clothing does best. Colour makes the heart beat faster. Since the days of Beau Brummell, tailors have boasted about broadening a man's shoulder, narrowing his waist and other feats of anatomical transformation.
But what about his circulation? What about his nervous system? What about his heartbeat? Boateng's palette is propelled by hues so deeply saturated they seem to soak right back through time itself as they transform traditional birds-eye and mohair cloth from something classic and staid to something elegant, dynamic and completely unafraid. Colours that would surely seem to be mistakes on paper are transformed and exalted by the fabrics they imbue and colours that seem untamable are harnessed and harmonized by the unexpectedly complimenting hues against which they're placed.
Fearless but also virtuoso colour is the potent current that connects Boateng's hard earned reputation for worldly elegance with the more faint but important echoes of the youthful, cocky and charismatic Portobello stance of his London boyhood. Like he's said with a wink about those times; "We were superheroes." That cut in those colours? It is this particular light-bending fashion alchemy that continues to transform his clients into superheroes today.
