Paul Smith launched his spring/summer womenswear collection yesterday and introduced a new line, called Paul Smith Pink. The models, who included Elizabeth Jagger and Jacquetta Wheeler, stepped onto a catwalk strewn with butterfly motifs, and showed off colourful patchwork silk slip dresses, pretty florals, clashing stripes and butterfly prints. All paired with forties-style shoes and brightly coloured socks.

In one of his strongest collections in recent seasons, Sir Paul, whose trademark classic with a twist is a hit worldwide, continues to be one of our most successful designers with stores in Paris, Milan, Taipei, and Hong Kong.
