Gifi Fields

Fashion Designer and Founder of Scarlett & Jo plus-size clothing brand.

Gifi Fields has come from an extensive fashion background dating back to the 1970s designing for the likes of Harrods, Harvey Nichols, Bloomingdales, Henri Bendalls, Saks, Lord & Taylor, Nordstrom, Au Printemps, Gallerie LaFayette and almost every mainstream European and UK high-street retailer. Fields was one of the original designers featured at Topshop, alongside Stirling Cooper, Jeff Banks, Quorum, French Connection and Miss Mouse. Fields was a co-founder of the British Fashion Council in 1983, and was somewhat of a legend in London’s West End Rag Trade with his notoriety still following him in some quarters. Fields has had successive nominations for British Fashion Awards in the 1990s and was known for inventing the ra-ra skirt. He now runs Scarlett & Jo in-house with his design team from his London Bridge Studios and headquarters.
