Since its launch in 1997, the Fashion Diary has been cherished as an indispensable partner by people working in the fashion industry. It features local recommendations from New York, London, Paris, and Milan, along with ample space for jotting down show notes.

“My Smythson diaries have recorded my schedule for over 30 years. They have helped me organize my appointments and stay on time (well, they tried). Over the years, I have used many different colored diaries, and whenever I need to remember important events or birthdays, I can always rely on them. They are far more reliable than searching online.” — Grace Coddington (Fashion Editor / Stylist)

Grace designed a special cover featuring her own hand-drawn illustrations, playfully depicting the iconic “front row” of the fashion world.

Inside the diary, Grace has selected her favorite spots from four fashion capitals. From shopping destinations known only to fashion insiders to must-visit restaurants, she shares her personal recommendations.

“I have used Smythson address books and diaries for years and years. I have always been drawn to their charm. So, what could be more wonderful than having a personalized edition just for me…?” — Grace Coddington (Fashion Editor / Stylist)

Grace Coddington, a long-time admirer of Smythson stationery, has contributed her own illustrations to this collaboration, reflecting her deep connection with the brand.
