Rickard Lindqvist Spring 2010

Swedish designer Rickard Lindqvist never fails in deliv­er­ing a charm­ing col­lec­tion of not only per­son­al­ity, but qual­ity. Inhibit­ing a space that fuses clas­sic tai­lor­ing with both uncon­ven­tional and stan­dard style direc­tions that chal­lenge the norm, the designer pushes for­ward with ease and finesse. Next year’s spring sea­son is no dif­fer­ent. In a smart cheeky turn, Lindqvist takes con­tem­po­rary menswear and gives it an update in pro­por­tions. The suit is made fresh as cropped trousers rise higher and shirts take the path less trav­eled – explor­ing an extreme range of var­i­ous size as part of a scale-​​try out project.  How­ever, where the collection’s per­son­al­ity really jumps into hyper drive is in its use of flo­ral prints. Inspired by botanist Carl von Linné, the lively flo­ral prints add adven­ture to con­ser­v­a­tive suit­ing, while also result­ing in the collection’s most jovial piece – its sig­na­ture jump­suit.  All in all, Lindqvist rounds out another sea­son pro­vid­ing a well encom­pass­ing col­lec­tion for those who want safe long-​​term choices as well as the dare­dev­ils who crave some form of adventure.

Headlights — Rickard Lindqvist Fall 2009

Swedish designer, Rickard Lindqvist takes a woodland-​​inspired approach for fall 2009. The col­lec­tion bares an earth-​​toned color palette and the fits are wide-​​ranged from tapered to relaxed. The high­light of this col­lec­tion is Linqvist’s work with knits. He takes basic pieces like the coat and incor­po­rates knitwear attrib­utes as an accent. Over­all, the col­lec­tion pro­vides for a styl­ish look, but with­out the look of effort.

The Trend: Inside These Pants

What: Switch out the jeans and tra­di­tional trousers.  This sea­son is all about mix­ing it up.  With a new col­li­sion of mate­ri­als, sil­hou­ettes, and a splash of color, noth­ing is off lim­its.  Be on the look out for tapered sweats, exces­sive pleat­ing, and relaxed loose fits.

With: Focus on your over­all sil­hou­ette.  If going with a super relaxed bot­tom, bring the top half in and make it slim.  If you’re work­ing with tapered bot­toms, the options are end­less depend­ing on your indi­vid­ual style.  Keep it slim, but not as nar­row as your bot­tom or wear exag­ger­ated por­tions; skinny bot­tom, over­sized top.
