Paul Smith/ David Bowie
Monday, May 20th, 2013
Music is one of Paul’s great passions. He and David Bowie have been friends throughout their respective careers at the forefront of fashion and music. This year, Paul Smith has teamed up with Bowie for a series of special collaborations to celebrate the musician’s critically acclaimed new album The Next Day , out now on Columbia Records.The latest instalment of the collaboration is a new limited-edition red vinyl of The Next Day. The Paul Smith and David Bowie vinyl is the only collaboration on the album, combining their exceptional style. Paul himself selected the distinctive translucent colour – David Bowie has never produced a red vinyl studio album before. It will be stocked on the Paul Smith website, as well as in selected Paul Smith shops and by selected wholesalers, including Selfridges and Nottingham Music Exchange. Earlier this year, Paul Smith kicked off the partnership with the official T-shirt for the album, featuring artwork designed by Jonathan Barnbrook printed on organic cotton with ‘Paul Smith for David Bowie’ insignia.
The limited edition vinyl launches on 17th May 2013.
