progessive menswear and unisex design label studio_805 is driven by andrew bannister, a first class fashion graduate from leeds college of art & design who relocated to london in winter 2008 to begin his calculated exercise in sartorial fun. bannister honed his pattern cutting skills whilst on placement at vivienne westwood and has since developed a signature style fusing cunning cut, clever colour and choice cloth. studio_805 launched at london fashion week in february 2009 as part of vauxhall fashion scout’s first ever ‘ones to watch’ initiative.

for autumn winter 10/11, studio_805 imagines a world devoid of any warmth, hanging motionless at zero degrees kelvin, drawing inspiration from all physical manifestations of frozen water.

studio_805 is currently stocked at MACHINE-A in Soho, London
