Playful and expressive, Sir Paul Smith’s design philosophy requires no further elaboration. The designer has long nurtured emerging fashion creatives, and in recent years has done so in a more formal way. In 2020, he established Paul Smith’s Foundation, an organisation set up to offer advice to those in creative industries and offering long-term mentorships to young designers striving to build sustainable business models. These mentorships have given birth to a collaboration under the name “&PaulSmith”, fostering not only creative exchange but also a shared focus on craftsmanship and culture.
