Mulberry and Paul Smith, two luminaries of British style, have merged their distinctive aesthetics in a 10-piece capsule collection. This collaboration fuses Mulberry’s hallmark, the Antony bag and its UK manufacturing dedication, with Paul Smith’s signature stripes and vibrant palette.
Introduced during Paul Smith’s FW23-24 men’s show in Paris, the collection pivots around the Antony bag. This classic design now comes in three sizes and introduces two novel shapes: the Antony Clip, a mini crossbody, and the Antony Tote. Originally crafted as a men’s bag, Antony’s Postman’s Lock hardware and versatile design have made it a favorite for all, mirroring Paul Smith’s inclusive approach.
The Mulberry x Paul Smith line narrates two tales. One embraces Paul Smith’s iconic stripes on black heavy-grain leather, accented by a vivid lining. The other showcases smooth calf leather with a color-block scheme, highlighting Paul Smith’s new Shadow Stripe pattern, innovatively embossed onto the leather.
This collaboration epitomizes British innovation, tradition, and luxury. With a shared emphasis on sustainability—echoed in Mulberry’s Made to Last commitment and Paul Smith’s sustainability journey—all pieces are crafted in Mulberry’s carbon-neutral Somerset factories using eco-friendly leather, setting the gold standard for sustainable luxury.
