At Paul Smith, London

The color combinations at this show were so inspiring. The rust top, purple belt, and grey pants were just about perfect

It seems that all of the outfits need a really skinny body. And the shorts/jacket thing? I don't know.

Blogger Grace Escudero - The Afeminada said ... (2:46 PM) : 

I'm really liking the shade of purple they're using..it's very cute. Also, interesting how they tied up the belts, it's quite an ongoing trend right now to loop the ends of belts.

A fine color theme indeed. Love the leather slippers with the briefcase.

And the buttons on the sleeves.

And the triple belts.

Pretty much everything.

Paul Smith makes me proud to be British. Love the purple all in one...

 

Anonymous Isa said ... (3:57 PM) : 

I love the pants ! So class and so british ... On the first pic, it's look like Katherine Hepburn style, one of my favorite.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (3:57 PM) : 

Your post reminds me of when I saw a man wearing a purple V-neck sweater with gray pants while I was sitting in a café in Paris. This guy was so elegant, and on top of that his phone ring was the guitar intro of David Bowie's "China Girl".

paul smith- my favourite! love the belts!

I am in passionate, deep, sartorialist love with this collection. the second look made me sigh audibly. love that you featured it here.

 

Blogger Jazz said ... (4:05 PM) : 

These colors are so elegant!!!

 

Anonymous greendress said ... (4:15 PM) : 

yes, the colors of that show were interesting - both the colors that were in it and the colors that were rejected. the sad thing is that it was the first of the london shows where i remarked the LACK of color and therefore made me feel sick to my stomach because when i think of london, i think of the beautiful colors in london.

 

Blogger saradowle said ... (4:18 PM) :

Great to see you're in London!

Loving the whole look;the colours,the shapes,the drape of the fabrics,the accessories and the models do not look half starved.

Also the combination of boyish and femininity.

Blogger Margo said ... (8:38 PM) : 

This is the first fashion show you have shot that actually makes sense to me, as in, I understand the style and where it is pushing out a new look. Wonderful! I agree that the colors are great - easy to look at but not boring. I especially love the eggplant jumpsuit with the multiple orange belts. And even the poufy French twist hair. Just really inspiring. THank you.

 

Blogger Alice Olive said ... (8:54 PM) : 

The fit of the trousers in the first and third shots are very Katherine Hepburn. Masculine and elegant tones.

 

Blogger Alice Liddell Blog said ... (9:11 PM) : 

Love love love the backwards cardigan.

 

Anonymous Dana said ... (9:20 PM) : 

I love the palette. I shall go to vogue.co.uk right now to view the show!

 

Blogger Jane See said ... (9:48 PM) : 

Love this collection! I totally dig how they used the belt on the purple piece.

 

Blogger Unknown said ... (9:49 PM) : 

Ah, I remember wearing backwards cardigans in high school - after my Mom told me about wearing hers that way back in the '40's! Such a great detail.

 

Blogger Ashley Reese said ... (10:31 PM) : 

The purple is just gorge. And I love the last shot.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (11:01 PM) : 

The colors are wonderful, but the backwards sweater...the masculinity...it's so circa 1985-1995. Leave the past in the past.

owww so cute and inspiring, love it ♥

Now this is inspiring fashion. Trust London in all its wayward charm to come up with something so simple and elegant. Love the purple piece as well as the rust top and grey pants. So classy, comfy and elegant.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (3:18 AM) : 

yes it's great colour combinations but pretty standard in terms of the english gentry. Go to badminton ( the place not the game) and you would see.

Must now search for a purple belt!

 

Blogger Liz S said ... (9:49 AM) : 

I do love all of these--esp the purple colour--it has a touch of magenta which gives it that bit of extra vibrancy.
Those loose pants though are hard to wear when short and/or solid around the lower half.

Rust colour, brown n purple - mmmm... colours of autumn!

Love all of these looks. The simple, clean makeup and hair, the earthy palette, the tailored but feminine drape, ending in (finally!) an elegant shoe.

Backwards cardigan. Brilliant.

Shirtdress plus pantsuit = Shirtsuit. Brilliant.

Purple. Brilliant.

Suit minus trousers = Not so much.

All photos together. Who wouldn't want to dress like this!

 

Anonymous Fashion said ... (1:27 PM) : 

Interesting backwards cardigan, I wish there was a shot to see what it looks like from the front though.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (1:50 PM) : 

I love love love this collection, but when I went to the Paul Smith web site (to see if I could purchase any of it online,) it wasn't there. Huh?

 

Blogger A La Femme said ... (5:01 PM) : 

This was such a stunning collection!!

 

Blogger Unknown said ... (5:07 PM) : 

Looove the first shot. It's very Katharine Hepburn in The Philadelphia Story.

 

Anonymous Luca said ... (1:10 AM) : 

The model+styling of the first photo is rather reminiscent of Tilda Swinton (i love it)

I see a movement in fashion to a rather boxy, elegantly masculine silhouette--rather Katherine Hepburn-ish.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (3:18 AM) : 

havn't really notice the unique purple of the belts till you mentioned it.
Great show indeed. love the etherial masculinity.

I love this collection. The color combinations are beautiful, and the clothing looks extremely comfortable. I probably wouldn't wear the tiny little panties though, not at my age.

 

Blogger LimtdEdition said ... (1:09 PM) : 

My fave is the 3rd look! Its something about the structure baggy fit and the play on the belts :)

lovely purple jumpsuit, now how many belts you want with that?

 

Anonymous ashlee said ... (12:55 PM) : 

my first reaction to the backwards cardi was one of confusion, but after looking at it for a bit i realized how much i love it! i always love an interesting back, and a button down with skin showing through is very clever. i'd probably do this look with a cardigan that doesn't have a pocket, but i love the idea!

 

Anonymous Lilou said ... (5:14 PM) : 

Nice stuff!
