After showing at Pitti Uomo in Florence last summer as the guest designer, Paul Smith will show for the first time at the Milan Men’s Week calendar in June as part of the Cnmi-Camera nazionale della moda italiana's official calendar. Smith’s show is scheduled to take place on June 21 at 5 p.m. local time.

“For the first time ever, I’m delighted to be showing my new collection as a part of Milan Men’s Fashion Week in June. I’ve proudly had my own showroom in Milan for 22 years and have great affection for the city. I’ll be hosting a salon style show which I know will be intimate and honest to who we are,” said Paul Smith, founder and designer of Britain’s independent fashion house.

The British brand will present an intimate showcase of its Spring/Summer 2026 collection at Smith’s showroom space at 95 Viale Umbria. Since the earliest days of the company, Paul Smith has enjoyed a deep connection to Italy. Drawing inspiration from the innate style of the country’s residents and working with their expert craftspeople to create a superior product, Italy is a key part of the Paul Smith story. Smith has been spending some time in Italy of late. Earlier this week, he attended the banquet at Quirinale Palace hosted by the President of Italy, Sergio Mattarella, as part of King Charles’ and Queen Camilla’s state visit.

Smith has previously shown collections at Paris Fashion Week Men’s and London Fashion Week and held special events in locations like Tokyo, where the brand recently participated in Rakuten Fashion Week Tokyo’s ‘by R’ programme.
