Introduction

Portrait of Kitty Dickerson-Firth in a black tweed jacket and white broderie shirt

Kitty Dickerson-Firth

Two decades designing and directing bridal, occasion, womenswear and childrenswear — ten of them as Co-Founder and Design Director of TH&TH, built from nothing into a brand sold through 30 retailers globally, including Selfridges.

I work across the whole arc: runway and cultural signal, trend and colour, fabric, sketch, fit, finished garment, campaign, brand. I like a romantic silhouette, a ridiculous ruffle, and a dress that makes somebody feel like the most beautiful version of themselves.

Set within the lush, cinematic surroundings of An Lam Retreats Saigon River, our Vietnam photoshoot unfolded amongst tropical jungle, the shimmering Saigon River, a serene lagoon pool and sculptural koi ponds. The location offered an extraordinary backdrop for the collection, allowing each piece to feel naturally immersed in its surroundings. Kitty conceived and directed the shoot from the ground up — designing the collection, shaping the storyboard and bringing the creative vision together before discovering Jack, our talented local photographer. From the first frame to the last, the shoot became a beautiful meeting of fashion, nature and place, capturing the effortless spirit of the collection in one of Vietnam’s most enchanting settings.
