Paul Smith Spring/Summer 2011

For his Spring/Summer 2011 collection, Paul Smith channeled the look of 1970’s rock-stars fused with early 1990's grunge. Such looks that sauntered down the catwalk included retro sunglasses teamed with sleek suits of light-weight tailoring; while pork pie hats, loud graphic tees and mismatched prints featured throughout. The long-haired models, who would not have looked out of place at rock gig; were also attired in psychedelic prints, signature leather boots and cable knit cardigans reminiscent of the style of Kurt Cobain.

With this collection, Paul Smith makes a definite nod to his rock’n’ roll roots -His first brush with fashion was hawking t-shirts at London concerts- yet it still retains Paul Smith’s classic high-fashion edge.

n all, the entire collection is cool, casual and instantly wearable.
