London Fashion Week A/W 11 - Paul Smith

It's a trend that's already growing in popularity, but after Paul Smith unveiled his new collection today at London Fashion Week, the smart look for ladies is sure to rocket forward.

Scott Schuman recently posted a photo after the Ralph Lauren show in New York of a woman dressed in a very chic suit and tie combination. I commented that more women ought to be wearing ties, and indeed, the smart look can be flattering. A fitted jacket or waistcoat will pinch in the waist, and a vast selection of ties means you can liven up your outfit with even the smallest splash of colour.

If all goes well, we'll be seeing more women wearing the trend Paul Smith has showcased today. You'll agree it's a superb collection.
