Pitti Uomo Spring Summer 2014, Florence Street Style

Posted on June 19, 2013 | Leave a comment

Once again it is June, also known as menswear month in the fashion calendar. A few days ago, London Collections succesfully kicked off the global menswear circuit, followed by Florence, Milan and last but not least, Paris. The summer buying season is always a favourite of mine and Pitti Uomo being my favourite show. The Italians just know how to ‘do it’ …. so I am curently enjoying (and mostly not enjoying, way too hot for work) 40 degrees of sunshine in Florence.

Style Style outside and inside of the show is big business for the hundreds of photographers of fashion blogs and the internet fame hungry visitors some of which I swear rock fancy dress just to get a picture taken! Anyway check out a round up of some of the amazing dressed people (and a few not so amazing!)

Balmain Riders Leather Jacket

Posted on May 26, 2013 | Leave a comment

Constructing another luxurious iteration to a classic silhouette, Paris fashion house Balmain has released a Riders Jacket with tones of self-assertion. Made with meticulous detail, wrinkled lamb leather panels the sturdy black body, while frontal horizontal zips dramatize the jacket with added elegance, acting as both functional and modish designs on the grainy backdrop. The leather wrist fasteners are fetching additions to the jacket, allowing wind and weather resistance. Stylish and practical, Balmain reiterates timeless staples with innate charisma.

Comme des Garcons SHIRT Baseball Shirt

Posted on March 2, 2013 | 2 comments

I really like this COMME des GARCONS SHIRT classic baseball shirt, its very clean & crisp…perfect for the Summer. Obviously inspired by the short-sleeve jerseys worn on baseball diamonds across the world, this casual menswear take on the piece features cotton poplin construction and subtle details like pleats at the back yolk, dropped shoulders, a curved hem and a single breast pocket.

Common Projects Spring Summer 2013

Posted on January 30, 2013 | Leave a comment

When founders Prathan Poopat and Flavio Girolami started Common Projects, their mission was to create minimalist, comfortable sneakers, made in Italy using only the finest materials. In addition to a utilitarian design, the shoes were virtually anonymous, with exterior branding limited to the article number and shoe size, factory-stamped in gold foil near the heel. The brand’s Spring/Summer 2013 collection is largely an extension of that original mission statement, with new slip-on sneakers, tennis shoes and crepe-soled loafers joining reliable standbys like the Achilles and Tournament, finished in new colours and materials for spring.
