Setting a new standards in premium hospitality uniforms
With over 35 years of experience in both couture and luxury uniforms, NO Uniform, under the creative direction of Founder Nicholas Oakwell, delivers fully bespoke uniform wardrobes specifically designed to complement each individual brand’s identity. From luxury hoteliers to Michelin star restaurants our wardrobes are crafted with both brand experience and the functionality requirements of our clients in mind.
Creates award winning looks and truly unique and sophisticated brand identities.
We collaborated closely with our range of clients from around the world. By tapping into each unique and authentic brand experience, we design with purpose and longevity in mind. Utilising our refined signature tailoring, experienced team, and luxury manufacturer relationships we have delivered over 75 timeless wardrobes globally that distinctly reflect each brand that they represent.
As market leaders, NO Uniform’s commitment extends beyond aesthetics. We take pride on our sustainable, circular practices such as recycling old garments into new garments or breaking them down into products like mattresses. We also continue to champion eco-friendly materials such as olive pip leather, natural fibres and recycled yarns while supporting both onshore and offshore luxury artisans.
In couture design, details aren’t just the embellishments; they are the silent storytellers that transform fabric into narrative, expressing the meticulous craftsmanship and artistry that elevate fashion to an exquisite form of self expression.
