Korean label Time looks to English model George Barnett to lead its sleek spring campaign. Capturing George roaming various halls, the campaign utilizes space in a fashion that is similiar to the collection’s use of cut and proportion to lend classics like the suit a modern grace.
Liberty of London and Fred Perry come together for a new line called Blank Canvas. Arriving in stores come April, the limited range dresses four of Fred Perry’s classic standbys in Liberty’s signature paisley and floral prints.

Creating a world where lush timeless knits can harmoniously co-exist with modern leather garments, designer James Long finds success in the details. Whereas many of his peers embraced leather sleeve inserts for the upcoming fall season, Long goes the extra mile, beginning with two distinct classes of garments before finding a common thread. Skillfully crafting separates, consisting of knitwear and leather with impeccable attention to detail, the two contrasting elements are gradually brought together for a near genius result. Delivering both edge and comfort, a playful mix of fabrics is rounded out by a small splash of color–lending a dark and sophisticated collection an upbeat mood.
Nestled amongst a sea of black and gray for the fall season, Carolyn Massey not only manages to soften the appearance of leather, but also slips in a delightful accent of pale pink. Letting out the wardrobe of her thoughtful man, Massey lengthens semi-relaxed knits, while also crafting billowing sleeves that add a certain lightness. Proving that fall fashion does not have to be bulky to function, Carolyn Massey’s man is strong on structure and color, but finishes soft in way of cut and drape.

Altogether, Hermès’ man walked with great poise and constancy, but lacked modern appeal.
