A leading face of Triton’s recent campaigns, it looks like Evandro Soldati will not be going anywhere anytime soon. Venturing into the jungle for a shoot with Tony Kelly, an extra animated Evandro is tied up and captured by Alicia Kuczman.
Milan Fashion Week | D&G Fall 2010
With a ski pass in hand and voluminous layering at work, D&G’s models are ready to hit the slopes. Juxtaposing a formal sensibility with the casualness of winter’s outdoor sports, Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana set in motion a playful season of that caters to many functions. While ski pants and jeans are loose and low-slung, knits are either fitted or chunky for use as outerwear. Meanwhile, in a typical Dolce & Gabbana fashion, evening wear makes an appearance in a striking winter white, proving that no matter the location, the D&G man is set–even if that includes a Mickey Mouse motif.
Milan Fashion Week | Bottega Veneta Fall 2010
Summing up this season’s collection, Bottega Veneta creative director Tomas Maier explained that with this collection, they “wanted to address the different ways men visualize themselves. Bottega Veneta’s goal is always to expand the vocabulary of men’s wear, to add individuality and expression. So there is sophistication, but also playfulness, bravado, eccentricity, rebelliousness – it all depends on how it’s put together.” Taking that cue, Maier set about with presenting looks for the man of any occasion. While a loose fitted layering of activewear hinted at a chic casualness, low slung denim provided for a sharp contrast against the collection’s more formal approach. The finer points of the collection were constructed by the marriage of high-waist trousers and boxy blazers. Whether dressed in black or a deep purple, Maier’s fall range delivered a functional nonchalance that is ultimately refreshing.
Fall 2010 | Dolce & Gabbana
Dolce & Gabbana tones down the luxe factor this season with a varied collection of the usual pieces, but a gritty element. Void of color and not afraid of a rip, hole or two, the range’s most notable pieces are found in the disheveled tanks, knits and longjohns. Alternatively, Dolce & Gabbana’s man, who is known to work with his hands is championed by the oil-like wash given to the collection’s denim. Finally, speckled knits, tweed and velvet find their way into this season’s offerings for those special occasions.
