Charles Smith II is a stylist, fashion designer and creative director for Smith the 2nd and Do Not Touch. His clothing lines showcase his unique, bold and original pieces, which make more than a fashion statement; Do Not Touch is a concept line that highlights human rights through its messaging.

A rising up and coming young designer originally from Harlem, New York now residing in Dallas, TX, Charles Smith II is leading the art and fashion community in young generations both in his city and on an international stage. His diverse aesthetic vision is apparent in his luxury brand “Smith II” and his edgier ready-to-wear brand “S2 by Smith II,” a line for young fashionistas who are also influenced by fashion but still want to eat after acquiring it.

Charles Smith’s transition from a player in the NBA D-League, to a model, and then to a designer showed him just how powerful following your dreams can be. He has walked in Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in New York, Miami, Berlin, London, Paris, and Milan, experiences through which he saw one side of the industry. Living in Milan, Italy from 14 to 16 years of age and again from 19-21, Charles honed a European style through firsthand experience in the European fashion world.

He has dressed fashion notables and celebrities such as Solange, Rev Run’s daughter Angela Simmons, Chris Brown’s ex-girlfriend Karrueche Tran, and also Lenny Kravitz’s daughter Zoe Kravitz, just to name a few.

Charles has inspired and influenced his young followers by showing them that a kid from Harlem can make any dream come true.
