When Paul Smiths Fall 09 show opened on Sunday night, models in mainline suit and cycling vest combo�s strutted out much to the audiences surprise. Cycling Vests? Really? But if you consider that Sir Paul was once a cyclist himself and his designs are usually inspired by his life, it comes as no surprise.
With many designers slowly migrating back to a larger pant leg, I was relieved to see that Paul Smith still included the slim cut suit into his newest collection. After all Classic cuts do not do justice to the skinnier physique. I should know.
Included were many combo�s of tartan and plaid prints, another quintessential detail we have all come to love about Paul Smith, where nothing is off-limits and all things, however suspect are possible.
With the expected warmer tones for Fall 09 Paul used a lot of grey jeans and fantastic boots. Note that he paired them with pastel colours perfectly (he also did this with his last collection). His lumberjack inspired sweater-jackets are gorgeous and really finish off the looks perfectly.
