Frankie Staples is a London-based menswear designer
whose work places
craftsmanship, emotional storytelling, and material integrity at its core.
Each garment begins with intention and is built through a thoughtful, hands-on process.
Working primarily with deadstock fabrics and natural plant-based fibres, clothing with a focus on sustainability, resourcefulness, and material honesty. The design language explores a fluid, sculptural approach to menswear — blending structured tailoring with soft, organic forms to challenge traditional silhouettes and expand perceptions of masculinity.
Positioned between the worlds of tailoring and casualwear, the work seeks to redefine modern menswear with emotional depth and physical texture. Drawing from his Cypriot heritage, themes of identity, displacement, and memory are explored, using the act of garment-making as a personal and cultural expression.
Spirituality, religion, and the unseen — from auras to emotional energies — are central to his creative inspiration. Each piece is designed to feel alive: touched by human hands, shaped by imperfection, and carried by meaning. The work invites a quiet conversation between structure and softness, past and present, body and spirit — offering clothes that connect deeply with those who wear them.
