JOHN SMEDLEY
Few companies can claim to still be working out of a factory that began in 1784, at the infancy of the industrial revolution, but for almost 240 years John Smedley has been manufacturing the world’s finest knitwear in Derbyshire, and is in fact, the oldest operating factory in the world.
They have produced knitwear for Vivienne Westwood and Paul Smith and have dressed Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe, and The Beatles. Using cutting-edge technology, these classic designs have evolved into modern styles to be worn by the superstars of today.
