Come and See Us at Spirit of Christmas, Olympia, 2nd - 8th November
Shibumi is back at Spirit of Christmas, and we are feeling rather excited.
It is the show's 25th anniversary this year, which felt like reason enough to pack up the rails and head to London. We do not do many shows nowadays as we are so busy in the showroom in Gloucestershire however a 25th birthday is a 25th birthday, and Spirit has always been one of our favourites.
You will find us on Stand P35.
When and where is Spirit of Christmas 2026?
Spirit of Christmas runs from Monday 2 November to Sunday 8 November 2026 at Olympia London. We will be there for the whole week on Stand P35.
There is also a Late Night Thursday on 5 November, which is a lovely way to see the show if your days are busy. It is quieter in the evening and there is more time to talk.
How do I get tickets?
We have a limited number of complimentary tickets to share, available while they last. Each code lets you book up to two tickets.
- Day ticket: use code EXGSHIBUM26
- Late Night Thursday, 5 November: use code EXLNSHIBUM26, and please choose the Late Night Thursday option when you book
Book through the Spirit of Christmas ticket page.
If the complimentary tickets have all gone by the time you get there, you will automatically be offered 25 per cent off standard ticket prices when you book, up until 1 November.
What will you have on the stand?
A selection of our jackets, coats and dressing gowns, and more besides. We will be bringing pieces from the collections people ask for most:
- The Devi coats, full length and quietly dramatic
- The Anya jackets, including the copper orange and the magenta pink silk
- The Liberty Silk Coats, embroidered, in Ottoman Black and cobalt blue
- The Nehru coats, including the imperial blue
- The Reversible Cashmere and Silk Dressing Gowns, in all sizes

I'm so excited to be launching my New Liberty Coat and Phoenix Jacket at this show. I will be wearing my new Phoenix Jacket, I can't wait! We will have a small collection at the show and then this can also be ordered in any of our different fabrics.
Why come and see the clothes in person?
Because photographs can only do so much with silk and embroidery.
The fabrics are the Essence of Shibumi, and they change in the light in a way a screen cannot show you. On the stand you can see the embroidery up close, feel the weight of the cashmere, try pieces on, and talk to us about what you are actually looking for. That conversation is usually worth more than an hour of scrolling.

Can I buy at the show, or order for Christmas?
Both. We will have lots of our classic Shibumi favourites available to buy from the stand and take home with you.
If the colour or size you want is not on the rail, you can order it at the show in time for Christmas. Come and talk to us about it and we will tell you honestly what is possible.

What if I cannot get to London?
Our Gloucestershire showroom is open by appointment, and we would love to see you there instead.
It is a tucked away treasure trove in the countryside, and we have time there in a way you never quite do at a show. You can book an appointment here.
