The London Design Museum celebrates four decades of design by one of Britain's best known talents, Sir Paul Smith, a man knighted in the 2001 Birthday Honours List for services to the fashion industry. Hello, My Name Is Paul Smith will include classics from his 40 years of collections and reveal something of the personality of the designer known for "Englishness combined with an unexpected twist" (GQ Magazine). But, says the Telegraph, rather than a straightforward run-through of his greatest fashion hits, the show will "explore a year in the different stages of design, production and marketing" behind the designer's catwalk collections. Not only that, the individual design of his shops - now in sixty-six countries across the world - will also be highlighted, all of which goes to show how far Sir Paul Smith has come since setting up his first shop in Nottingham in 1970.
About Design Museum
In 2016 the Design Museum moves from is long standing home at Shad Thames to a venue three times the size, the former Commonwealth Institute building in Kensington High Street. The Grade II* listed building has been transformed by a design team led by John Pawson to include the Swarovski Foundation Centre for Learning, 202-seat Bakala Auditorium and a dedicated gallery to display its permanent collection, accessible free of charge.
