Our collaboration with Lock & Co. is the perfect partnership, with strong shared values and a rich history – at the heart of both our brands is luxury, charm and first-class service. Lock & Co. was first established in 1672 and is deemed to be the oldest hat shop in the world.  It has remained a family run business since inception, with over 7 generations running the Hatters from their shop on St James’ Street, Mayfair. Their expertise has been honed over the centuries with many famous figures donning their creations including Admiral Lord Nelson, Sir Winston Churchill and Oscar Wilde. Their Royal Warrant status attests to the high-quality of their craft.

Within DUKES LONDON, a stunning selection of Lock & Co. hats will be on display during London Fashion Week, showcasing styles and trends from throughout the ages. Guests will also have the opportunity to see a truly impressive floral installation by floristry experts Your London Florist. The piece features a unique dress crafted from flowers and foliage, with a full skirt of white Gypsophila and a bodice adorned with white Helichrysum and blue Delphinium. The exhibition is an amazing celebration of fashion and is the perfect combination of creativity and style.

Over in the DUKES Bar, manager Mariantonietta Varamo has crafted two exclusive cocktails to toast the collaboration, available throughout the month of September. The Snow Fall Martini is an exciting twist on our speciality drink, combining Queen Enigma Vodka with chamomile and violette liqueurs. If you prefer stronger and earthier flavours, the Misty Negroni is the perfect choice featuring Ardberg whiskey, Benedictine DOM, coffee beans and orange bitters. The intimate and timeless surroundings of the DUKES Bar are an idyllic location to relax and unwind after a day filled with fashion – let our expert bartenders attend to your needs.
