Ozwald Boateng: Rooted In the Past, Definitely Part of the Present

Ozwald Boateng's (pronouned Bwa-teng) is one of the funkiest tailors working on Savile Row. His made-to-measure suits in eye-popping colors (even the more conservative suits sport bright silk linings), luxurious fabrics, and leading-edge styling are worn by rock and club-land luminaries including Jamie Foxx, Mick Jagger, Will Smith and Laurence Fishburne.

Ozwald Boateng is the absolute end for men who understand and value style. His colorful, beautifully tailored suits are cut with the precision of an origami figurine. Credited for breathing new life into the stuffy Savile Row (the celebrated street in Westminster, London where tailors do their thing for the royals and well-to-dos), Boateng lent his impeccably, elegant taste to the House of Givenchy (2003-2007). His career has far exceeded the trajectory of any ordinary craftsman. He was the first tailor to ever stage a runway show in Paris, and his talents were featured in a popular documentary series entitled “The House of Boateng.”
The launch of his multi-faceted Bespoke Headquarters on Savile Row in May 2002, has seen a further expansion of the business, and has brought more attention to Savile Row. The building is the creative nerve-centre of the company, housing the design studio, tailors’ atelier, Bespoke Library and consultation room, the showroom and sales offices, as well the administrative offices for the company. The bold and unusual use of colour and decoration throughout the space has already captured the imagination of the design media, both in the UK and abroad.


By pursuing a theme or topic each season – a rarity in men’s fashion – Boateng creates collections that fit with the expectations and desires of the moment. Such themes have included Tribal Traditionalism’(SS02), an exploration of African tribal aesthetics and their deep rooted cultural significance.his current collection for Spring Summer 2004, called “Ashanti Hip Hop” in which he explores his own cultural roots with the Ashanti tribe of Ghana.

He is not just a bespoke coutier, he has been blessed with vision to promote a positive image of African. Contrary to popular belief, he believes that Africa's problem of poverty and poor economy will one day to come to and end. Bravo Ozwald!
