Nicholas Daley

Community, craftsmanship and culture lie at the heart of Nicholas Daley’s work. Having graduated from Central Saint Martins in 2013, the London-based designer launched his eponymous brand in 2015 - a practice intertwining personal narrative with wider Black British and diasporic themes.

Daley explores identity and heritage through contemporary menswear rooted in Jamaican and Scottish traditions. Each collection combines bespoke textiles, artisanal techniques and sustainable practices, partnering with makers across the UK and beyond. His work has featured in exhibitions at the V&A Dundee, NOW Gallery and the V&A’s Fashioning Masculinities.

The brand supports music initiatives such as Tomorrow’s Warriors and the Nicholas Daley x Fred Perry Music Grant, while championing diversity through mentoring and education.

Recognised by the British Fashion Council’s NEWGEN programme, Daley is an LVMH Prize finalist, International Woolmark Prize semi-finalist and winner of the BFC/GQ Designer Fashion Fund and BFC Fashion Trust Award. He was honoured with the Pratt Fashion Visionary Award (2025) and nominated for BFC Menswear Designer of the Year at the British Fashion Awards in both 2024 and 2025.

Collaborations span leading global brands, including Mulberry, Fred Perry, Clarks Originals, Adidas Originals, Carhartt WIP, Flower Mountain, Lyle & Scott, G.H. Bass, Lavenham, Chelsea FC, Nepenthes New York and Subsun - each project reflecting Daley’s ethos of cultural storytelling and craft. Collections are available worldwide at Saks Fifth Avenue, Union LA and Tokyo, Bloomingdale’s, Selfridges and C’H’C’M.
