Paul Smith Minds the GAP


Sir Paul Smith stuck with the basics for his Fall 09 collection. Models strutted down the pink and green runway inside Claridge's Ballroom last night, wearing everything from fair isle sweater dresses to almost military uniforms to floral dresses. It started out eclectic Brit before entering military territory. Once there, he showed brass buttoned coats and capes and dresses with rhinestone epaulets and baggy trousers. There was a long mossy green gown, striped sweaters, red lips and florals at the end. It was kind of like the Gap, but British, busier, and more expensive.
