Limited edition snowboard by Paul Smith!?!


Paul Smith has been invited by the Victoria and Albert museum to showcase some of his designs at the Fashion v Sport exhibition now showing at the museum. The exhibition looks at the creative connections between fashion and sport as these days sportswear is seriously cool.
One of the products featured will be a limited edition snowboard featuring a flying carpet print, inspired by a photograph taken by Paul’s father, who was a keen amateur photographer.

Sportswear has become an essential part of the modern wardrobe. Trainers and tracksuits are often more readily worn than suits, and high performance textiles developed for competition are being integrated into high-end fashion. Fashion V Sport examines the way that sports styles are adapted to make fashion statements, both on the street and through high fashion, and how sports and fashion products are consumed, customised and worn.
