Expect traditional tailoring with a new approach not forgetting vibrant colours and bold patterns. The Santei client is looking to stand out from the crowd whether it's in their workplace or just day to day. They're looking for timeless pieces as well as pieces that can easily be styled as statements. With a playful approach which can also be adapted to formal obligations.
