✨ I am looking for a new full-time job! ✨

As you may know, I’ve been working closely with Louise Fili as her Senior Designer and Associate, and more recently as a Partner at Tipofili.

After nearly six years, I am looking for what’s next!

@kevintwohy About to drop my phone number here

[Matthew Smith @mttymtt]

Louise Fili Ltd reunion dinner tonight, so I gotta hit y’all with a fit check.

[Matthew Smith @mttymtt]

@stewartsc Hell yeah. We need to bring back zip off pants that become shorts

[Matthew Smith @mttymtt]

@stewartsc I need to know more about the buttons on the legs! What are they for?

[Matthew Smith @mttymtt]

@dmcgco I was pleasantly surprised with their comfort! But I probably come from the other end of the spectrum. I was wearing a thin pair of velvet slippers with basically no cushion for years lmao

Whenever you’re back in the city, they’ve got a store you could probably try them on at

[Matthew Smith @mttymtt]

My quality of life has absolutely sky rocketed since I bought a new pair of house shoes.

[Matthew Smith @mttymtt]

@dmcgco I ended up grabbing a pair black leather slides from Grand Lè Mar!

I genuinely spent the last year or more looking for something so I could easily send you a list of ones I was considering.

The Fiat Jolly is the perfect car

@mikesmith187 This is a quick old exploration I had done. I’ve got my own interpretation of Cortez going, and was exploring a spurred version as well. Haven’t touched it in ages though (which is why the lowercase looks insane)

[Matthew Smith @mttymtt]

@mikesmith187 Last one…

(personally kind of hate this but sending it any way lol)

@mikesmith187 Unfortunately, the Undercase website seems to be down, but there is also Mausoleum.

[Matthew Smith @mttymtt]

@mikesmith187 What about the heavy weights of Roslindale?

@fonts_xyz I can’t get the site to load 😭

I genuinely do need to write about this because I was looking at an image and thinking to myself “I hate the way this font was drawn, I bet it is from [redacted]”

And lo and behold it was.

[Matthew Smith @mttymtt]

Very satisfied with myself after successfully identifying a font based on the foundry’s “hand” and drawing quality.

[Matthew Smith @mttymtt]

@alisha_hg Admittedly, “ethical” fashion at scale will probably never be sustainable because the forces are constantly at odds with one another.

I think projects like the Paynter Jacket thrive because they’re small batch and extremely focused.

@jstrelioff My fav is not looking at other websites :)

Flickr, https://t.co/ujl2WAsIw7, books, magazines, etc.

[Matthew Smith @mttymtt]

Haven’t hit y’all with a fit check in a minute

Been meaning to share that about 2 months ago I joined Sylvain as design director ✨
