Food Meets Fashion at D&D’s Sartoria


Food Meets Fashion web banner

This year, Sartoria is taking advantage of its prestigious location on Savile Row in Mayfair, the world’s most famous tailoring street and home to many of the country’s best bespoke tailoring services, with a series of “Food Meets Fashion” events.  This series of events will highlight the synergy between the two crafts: tailoring and cooking.

“Food Meets Fashion” events are part of D&D’s latest campaign ‘Mindful City’ which aims to encourage us to slow down and appreciate our bodies, minds and environments.

Chef patron Francesco Mazzei will be joining some exciting guest speakers to discuss the overlap between fashion design and cooking from the careful selecting of raw materials, to the aesthetic inspirations behind the dishes and designs. Each event promises to be an enlightening experience to be enjoyed alongside a delicious 3-course meal devised by chef Francesco in the restaurant’s sophisticated and glamorous private dining room.

Kicking off this set, on 2nd February, Sartoria will be hosting the celebrated fashion designer Ozwald Boateng OBE. This exclusive lunch event will commence with a talk from Ozwald, followed by a discussion from Francesco Mazzei on his passion for cooking with leftovers and reducing food waste as well as an introduction to the meal in store.

The three-course lunch comprises a Burrata, blood orange, radicchio and pickled black truffle salad followed by a Crustaceous lasagnetta with Marsala zabaglione and a dessert of Lemon tiramisu. A glass of Moet & Chandon on arrival and a glass of wine during the meal complete the experience. In addition, guests will be able to participate in a Q&A with Francesco and Ozwald during the meal. Guests are also invited to visit Ozwald Boateng, on Savile Row, following the lunch.

Subsequent speakers include Henrietta Rix and Orlagh McCloskey, the designers behind contemporary womenswear label RIXO London. They will be joining Francesco on 16th February to discuss fashion and food trends for 2018, ahead of their trip to the French capital for Paris Fashion Week, with more collaborations soon to be announced.
