Paris Fashion Week | Miharayasuhiro Fall 2010

Ush­er­ing in a sea of buf­falo checks, stripes, denim washes, speck­les, patches and plaid, Miharayasuhiro’s lat­est col­lec­tion gave the appear­ance that its mod­els had raided a good­will store with an inter­est­ing out­come by chance. Embrac­ing an eclec­tic nature, the range finds itself with plenty of lively shirt­ing options as well as chunky knits that dou­ble as out­er­wear. Mean­while, pro­por­tions are all over the board, with the major­ity of pieces enjoy­ing an over­size com­fort. Round­ing out the col­lec­tion is the choice to take on a con­ser­v­a­tive pair of slim-​​fitted trousers or the collection’s more per­son­able approach to patched denim. Over­all, the range main­tains a casu­al­ness that is in sync with the times, offer­ing a cer­tain charm and a piece for everyone.

Paris Fashion Week | Dries Van Noten Fall 2010

Dries Van Noten sent a graphic parade down the run­way ear­lier today with detailed pip­ing and larger than life prints mak­ing quite the state­ment. Rid­ing an influx of color and excite­ment, Dries Van Noten inter­jected men’s suit­ing with great per­son­al­ity. From dressed down sweats-​​styled trousers and bold elec­tric blue sep­a­rates to con­trast­ing inserts, Van Noten’s man proved to be the life of the party. Bridg­ing the gap between mod­est and play­ful, the col­lec­tion exe­cuted a well-​​balanced turn at a per­son­able col­lec­tion for the man of all occasions.

Milan Fashion Week | Z Zegna Fall 2010

Milan Fash­ion Week comes to a dreary close with Z Zegna’s ster­ile fall out­ing. Somber, save for a cou­ple brown pieces, Z Zegna’s fall 2010 col­lec­tion man­ages to make fall 2009’s over­all black­out seem col­or­ful. The label turned to tonal pan­nel­ing and inter­est­ing details to progress this sea­son’ direc­tion, but ulti­mately came up short, wash­ing out the best attrib­utes by fail­ing to off­set a con­stant visual with arrest­ing difference.
