This teaches us six things:

1) Luke still cannot model.

2) He must have some amazing charm because he keeps getting cast.

3) I’m a hypocrite, because I keep posting his work.

4) In fashion, nothing goes better together than nudity and accessories.

5) Wait.  Correction.  Nothing goes better together than men and accessories for women.

6) It is a love-hate relationship.

Pictured are some pieces that stood out to me, because of their styling.

1. LOVE the oversized tee from Vivienne Westwood and the cut of the collar and hem.
2. LOVE the layered sheer sweater and tank from Louis Vuitton.
3. LOVE the cropped trousers and styling from Junya Watanabe.  A nice alternative to suiting shorts, which can be severe.
4. LOVE the pairing of cropped pants and high socks from Jean Paul Gaultier.

I don’t flock to Vivienne Westwood’s aesthetic, but I appreciate how quirky and unexpected she is. Just look at the model to the left. I love that she chose to use a man of a heftier build. It snaps you out of the fashionable idea that the only way to look is tall and lanky. Turns out that Vivienne’s choice in a model gained people’s attention. The Cut found out that the model is “Sergio Lo Re, an actor and bodyguard. He’s signed with New Faces Models/Actors in Milan.” Do you think he will be getting more work?

Guiltless plug. Show me love and I’ll return the favor. Dapp3r is a great site for those of us blogging about menswear. Dapp3r links to your interesting entries creating a page with engaging entries from various bloggers. Hello, can you say traffic boost? Sign up today.
