The Paul Smith Foundation's Fashion Residency at Studio Smithfield has announced its new class for 2026/27, featuring Harri, Joyce Bao, Renata Brenha, Petra Fagerstrom, Masha Popova, and Eden Tan.
The programme, launched in 2024, is a collaboration between GQ, The Mayor of London, Projekt, and Paul Smith's Foundation, aiming to support London's growing fashion talent pool.
The final six were chosen from a pool of 100 applicants by a panel of UK fashion legends, including Sir Paul Smith, Justine Simons OBE, Adam Baidawi, and Nick Harwright.
Narrowing it down to six was a tough gig.
The selected cohort represents a comprehensive snapshot of London-based talent.
