Every SMYTHE collection starts from a very personal place. Each design is inspired by our lifestyles, our compilation of textiles and by the myriad of cultural inputs that enter our subconscience as we observe, experience and absorb design, art, travel, film and nature.
There are two distinct colour capsules within the Pre-Spring 2019 collection although all the pieces can all be mixed and matched. We open on “buy now wear now” neutrals prints in seasonless fabrics with pops of aqua and cobalt layered in.
The second capsule is focused on statement neon brights as a precursor to warm weather. Neons are not only topical in the market, but look modern paired back to the neutrals that have been layered in.
SMYTHE is a Toronto based ready-to-wear label that are known for their versatile, timeless designs.
