PAUL SMITH

Single-breasted notched-lapels regular-fit wool-blend suit

Eccentric designer Paul Smith CH CBE RDI has attended a lot of soirées over the years – from receiving several British honours for his contribution to the arts to dinners with industry leaders – so it's only right that he invest in a formal suit. This wool-blend two-piece number is the ideal thing for accepting awards, but with those padded shoulders and notched lapels, it looks pretty dapper no matter where you don it.
