Toronto’s Smythe Marks 20 Years of Masterful Tailoring
For the occasion, the contemporary Canadian fashion brand released the XX Anniversary Capsule.
Since 2004, Smythe’s ready-to-wear collections have reflected founders Andrea Lenczner and Christie Smythe’s dedication to innovation and the art of perfecting the women’s blazer.
To celebrate two decades of creativity and cutting-edge designs, the brand presents the XX Anniversary Capsule of sleek black suiting: fitted and flared pants, vest, blazer dress, and a jumpsuit. Named after the Roman numeral for 20, the XX also symbolizes the two designers’ long-lasting partnership.
Not a retrospective, the designers’ current vision showcases new silhouettes that reflect the duo’s creative inspiration to create Smythe 20 years ago. “These six sartorial pieces pay homage to the foundation of our brand, which is considered, modern tailoring,” they say.
The year 2024 is a milestone for Smythe, which opened a boutique in Calgary’s Chinook Centre—its second retail location—in March, fortifying Canada’s desire for impeccable tailoring.
