Paul Smith Jeans Spring/​Summer 2012

Sum­mer in France–The works of artist Louis Bour­geois and direc­tor Jean Luc God­dard inspire the lat­est col­lec­tion of Paul Smith Jeans. As jack­ets are gray and bleached, the tapes­tries of Bour­geois are trans­lated into a sub­dued color palette that calms. Dress­ing t-​​shirts and cuffed shorts, a laid-​​back atti­tude is rein­forced before head­ing into the arena of God­dard. Adding more vibrancy and an acid trip of a color array, gra­di­ents and other prints dec­o­rate the collection’s easy pieces, while denim is treated for a youth-​​infused outing.
