Yigal Azrouël Spring 2012 | New York Fashion Week

Rework­ing Menswear–Slowly unrav­el­ing clas­sics and cre­at­ing a mod­ern wardrobe of great relax­ation, Yigal Azrouël set his lat­est col­lec­tion to the tune of revamped accents. Turn­ing out a range where the casual com­po­nents eas­ily melded with more fashion-​​forward sta­ples, Azrouël’s idea of spring came to fruition with a multi-​​faceted man of style. Tak­ing easy ready to wear pieces like the sweat­shirt and merg­ing it with strong gar­ments like the leather jacket, the first of many hybrids was born. From athletic-​​geared trousers and tops to more business-​​prone jack­ets, com­plete with relaxed tai­lor­ing and color block­ing, the sea­son deliv­ered an enor­mous selec­tion of strong standbys.
