British designer Paul Smith got his epnymous brand’s milestone year off to a jubilant start this week. 2020 sees the company mark its 50th anniversary and the celebrations started during Paris Fashion Week with a special AW20 collection riffing on the house’s signature designs.
This was followed by an elegant cocktail reception and dinner held at Le Trianon theatre where guests were treated to a menu devised by Arnold & Henderson. Famous fans of the brand, including long-time friends Sir Ian McKellen and Bill Nighy as well as new converts Jonah Hauer-King and Edward Bleumel, turned out to raise a toast – and dance the night away to a playlist personally curated by Sir Paul himself.
