After convening a small group of friends, family and press in his own back garden for SS25, you might expect this season’s Paolo Carzana show to be a less intimate affair – but that was far from the case. For AW25, the Welsh designer gathered an even smaller group at The Holy Tavern in Clerkenwell, a tiny, romantic pub housed within a 300-year-old building. Scraping wooden stools on flagstone floors, guests squeezed into every nook and corner they could find, sipping wine and ale while waiting for the show to begin.
