“You could rest a pint on those shoulders!” Our conversation in the fashion bus not two minutes after the Paul Smith show.
Big, structured shoulders, like those you see in a Duran Duran video, and hi-vis shouty chinos and flares so wide you could lose a small child in them. This is the Paul Smith we love. Fashion’s very own lint roller picks up bits of menswear most vibrant eras and sticks them all together. When the The Kinks came on the soundtrack: he sent out pin-sharp 15″ drainpipes and a black fitted blazer. Ace. Oh, and look out for next spring’s sunglasses: cat’s eyes for the fellas. *author places personal order*
