A leading British label that has the ability to anticipate and even spark - off trends, not only in fashion but also in the wider context of popular culture.
Sir Paul Smith is an English fashion designer, whose business and reputation is founded upon his menswear. His collections of clothing and accessories for both men and women are usually identified by the presence of Smith's multi-coloured pinstripe motif somewhere on each item.
He is credited with introducing a number of trends within the realms of fashion and 'lifestyle' including the revival of boxer shorts and of the Filofax in the early 1980s.
The success of Smith's business has been put down to his understanding of his dual roles of both designer and retailer; the success of his designs is attributed to his combination of the classic and the quirky.
