No Spain, No Gain: This time last week, Jean-Luc introduced us to the fall 2009 collection from Barcelona-born menswear designer Georgina Vendrell. As was pointed out, Vendrell is one of the rare species of women designing for men. The collection was intriguingly styled, incorporated a thoughtful mix of fabrics and had more than a handful [...]

Despite Milan and Paris setting the scene for a spate of forthcoming Spring 2010 collections, we became acquainted this past week with a varied array of releases available for Fall 2009. While some hit the mark more than others, the collections all seemed to be participating in a parade of plaid. The plaid, or tartan, [...]
Giuliano Fujiwara Spring 2010

Spring 2010 was all about the letter ‘M’ for Giuliano Fujiwara. Characteristically Japanese, but showing in Milan, with Masataka Matsumura at the helm as creative director, the collection shown on Sunday evening was inspired by a mix of militaristic and mountaineer motifs with individual looks being masculine and predominantly monochromatic. The collection showcased an eclectic [...]

Written by Nate in Wednesday, June 24th 2009 under 2009, 2010, Runway, c.p. company, lyle lodwick, milan fashion week, spring, spring 2010
Taking a look back at Saturday we find C.P. Company’s first showing under the guardianship of former Galliano menswear designer Wallace Faulds. It was, as anticipated, an exercise in sleek simplicity for a label tailored towards the man on the go. With its design aesthetic that emerged almost thirty-five years ago from a consideration of [...]
Costume National Spring 2010

With a far more youthful collection than what many other designers have shown so far in Milan this week, there was a lot to like about Ennio Capasa’s creations for spring 2010. While, as with last season, black was featured prominently, the introduction of a lighter grey, cream and blue gladly remind us that this [...]

Lina Österman Fall 2009
This past week saw a spate of Fall 2009 collections which, cumulatively, did little to disrupt the recent trends in men’s fashion: if they’re not going for black, then they’re going for androgyny. Given I have a bias in favour of both movements (Sonny Groo is my style icon after all), I [...]
