Paul Smith to open Australian flagship

UK fashion label Paul Smith will open its first standalone Australian

store next month in Melbourne’s Collins Street district. The 250 sq m store will be located in the heritage-listed Professional Chambers building and the two floors of retail space will house men and women’s apparel, jewellery, books, art and antiques.

The new flagship store will join Melbourne’s luxury fashion precinct, which already includes luxury brands such as Cartier, Louis Vuitton, Bulgari, Gucci, Ermenegildo Zegna and Chanel. Paul Smith’s move into Melbourne follows other international fashion brands such as Topshop, Gap and Zara, who have also opened stores in the city.

The London Fashion Week fashion label offers 14 different collections including Paul Smith, PS by Paul Smith, Paul Smith Jeans, and Paul Smith London, as well as accessories, fragrances, and watches. The brand also has stores across the globe including 14 in London and its international stores can be found in Paris, Milan, New York, the Far East and the Middle East, and this month also sees the opening of a new store in Amsterdam, Holland.
