“In the spirit of togetherness and positivity,” actor Omari Douglas, cyclist Duke Agyapong, artist Tristan Pigott, model Shade Akinbobola, and singer Gia Ford appear in Paul Smith’s fall campaign. The stars share what motivates and inspires them in life. Douglas expresses, “I love music, music is really important in my life, it energizes me, it inspires me. I like to feed my curiosity by trying to find music I don’t necessarily know or I’m not familiar with.”
