Studio Nicholson is a London label founded by Nick Wakeman in 2010 from an office in Shoreditch, built around a "modular wardrobe" of interchangeable menswear and womenswear. Signature pieces include wide-leg trousers, oversized shirting, boxy knitwear and unstructured outerwear cut from Japanese and Italian fabrics in muted, neutral tones with an emphasis on volume and proportion. The brand marked 15 years in 2025 and opened a store on Redchurch Street in east London. It has run repeat collaborations with Uniqlo and New Balance.
