When we talk about northern fashion, there are certain names that carry real weight. Names that embody heritage, craftsmanship, and the kind of timeless elegance that never goes out of style. This November, at our Up North Runway fashion show at Berties Event and Banqueting Hall in Elland, Halifax, one such name will be taking to the runway: Antich Fine Tailors.
A Northern Legacy in Cloth and Craft
Based in Huddersfield, the beating heart of Britain’s textile industry, Antich Fine Tailors are masters of their art. Their story is one rooted in the proud traditions of Yorkshire weaving and tailoring, where quality isn’t just a selling point – it’s the foundation of everything they do.
Unlike many tailors, Antich don’t just cut cloth; they create it. By producing their own fine fabrics, they are able to offer clients something truly unique: garments woven, cut, and stitched with an unmatched attention to detail. The result? One-off creations for the refined gentleman who values individuality and heritage as much as style.
Customers Worth Celebrating
It’s no surprise, then, that Antich’s reputation stretches far beyond Huddersfield. Over the years, they’ve created bespoke garments for a long list of celebrated customers, each seeking the kind of tailoring that speaks of refinement and authenticity. Their work isn’t about fast fashion or passing trends – it’s about building garments that stand the test of time, both in construction and in style.
This ethos of longevity and craftsmanship makes Antich the perfect fit for Up North Runway. Our mission has always been to highlight designers and makers who bring something lasting to the fashion industry, and Antich exemplify exactly that.
Classical Styling for the Modern Gentleman
The tailoring tradition is steeped in rules, but Antich have always understood that rules are there to be reinterpreted. Their classical styling is unmistakable – think sharp cuts, perfect fits, and fabrics that speak of heritage – but they bring a freshness that keeps their work relevant to today’s gentleman.
It’s this ability to balance the heritage of Huddersfield textiles with the expectations of modern tailoring that makes Antich so special. Every suit, jacket or coat carries the imprint of tradition while offering a contemporary edge that works just as well on the boardroom floor as it does at a black-tie event.
The Perfect Stage: Up North Runway
On 8th November 2025, Antich Fine Tailors will bring this story of cloth, craftsmanship and style to life at our black-tie event at Berties in Elland. Guests can expect to see a selection of their finest creations – bespoke garments that showcase the depth of skill and artistry embedded in every stitch.
The venue itself, Berties Event and Banqueting Hall, offers the perfect backdrop. A celebration of elegance in the heart of Halifax, it will set the stage for an evening that brings together established names like Antich alongside couture designers and an emerging northern designer to showcase the breadth and depth of northern talent.
By appearing on our runway, Antich are helping to anchor the event in the North’s fashion heritage, reminding us all that Yorkshire has always been a global centre of textile excellence.
Why This Matters for the North
At Up North Runway, we’re not just putting on a fashion show – we’re building a movement. Too often, northern talent heads straight to London or beyond, leaving a gap in our regional fashion scene. By creating a platform here in Halifax, we’re celebrating both our rich textile past and our exciting creative future.
Having Antich Fine Tailors join us is a statement. It shows that world-class tailoring, rooted in northern heritage, belongs at the heart of that story. Their presence underlines the quality, tradition, and prestige that Yorkshire brings to the fashion industry, and it sets a standard for every designer who shares our stage.

The Up North Runway Fashion Show takes place on Saturday 8th November 2025 at Berties Event and Banqueting Hall, Elland, Halifax. It will be a black-tie evening celebrating designers both established and emerging – a showcase of creativity, craftsmanship, and the best of northern fashion.
