Spring/Summer 2019

SS19
Sheer layering is a signature feature of our collections. This season we employ it throughout, building up depths of texture and colour over a mix of fabrics and bias binding emphasising the graphic lines of the pattern cutting.
Collection highlights include layered net jackets with hand made shoulder pads and free hand embroidered pieces playing with the idea of technology v mother nature with metallic flowering electrical components.
We personally pattern cut and drape each piece in our London studio, to fully explore and develop the vision for our label.

LONGSHAW WARD is a Womenswear and Accessories label, designed by husband and wife team Kirsty Ward and David Longshaw, in our London studio.
Having studied at St Martins and the Royal College of Art, we met in the design studio of Alberta Ferretti, in Italy.
Covetable contemporary pieces with a strong aesthetic are the main principles of the brand’s DNA. The collections concentrate on beautiful, detailed craftsmanship, for modern, intelligent women.
Longshaw Ward has been worn by the likes of Gigi Hadid, Jorja Smith,Poppy Delevingne, Mabel and featured in L’Officiel, VOGUE, NYLON, ELLE.
