Background

Former Hermes, Dior & Tommy Hilfiger designer. Woolmark stylist. Harper's Bazaar Netherlands cover creator. UNSW alumni. Parisian haute couture expert.

Jonathan James is a designer who's caught the eye of fashion's biggest names. Born in Sydney and schooled at the University of New South Wales, James quickly found his footing in Paris's competitive scene. His talent landed him coveted spots as a senior designer at Christian Dior, Tommy Hilfiger, and Hermes - a trifecta that's given him serious cred in both haute couture and ready-to-wear.

James has a knack for blending the natural world with human emotion in his designs. His pieces aren't just clothes; they're wearable art that showcases top-notch craftsmanship and polished aesthetics. But James isn't content with just making pretty dresses. He's also made a name for himself as a go-to stylist for major magazines. His eye-catching work has graced the covers of Woolmark, Harper's Bazaar Netherlands, Wonderland Magazine, and Manuscript Magazine. This mix of skills allows him to infuse his designs with inspiration from music, art, and literature, giving them an extra layer of depth.

In his latest collaboration with Fabrique, James is focusing on wardrobe staples with staying power. "We're taking classic pieces and giving them a modern twist that'll last," he explains. The collection features updated versions of essentials like overcoats, blazers, trousers, cabans, and slip dresses. James borrows subtly from menswear, adding clever details and precise cuts. The result? Clothes that feel current but won't be passé next season. It's clear James is thinking long-term, creating fashion that's both stylish now and built to endure.
