Risky Games–Romain Kremer’s eccentric design sense comes together with Nicola Formichetti’s outlandish style choices for Mugler’s spring 2012 collection. A chaotic mix of future aspirations, the club scene and the eighties, the latest range comes together with a vast cast of characters. While suiting enjoys a couple of striking moments, a highlighter green spawn of a wardrobe in bold cuts steals the show amongst a turn to cutaway garments that left Mugler’s man scantily clad, whether it was a cropped muscle top or a lack of shorts. From glittery sequins and acid washed denim to a post industrial motif, Mugler achieved a show of head turning proportions.

Armani Means Business–Focus was at the core of Giorgio Armani’s showing for the spring 2012 season. Setting the stage for one uniform, suiting was dissected for a wardrobe of varied proportions. From fitted jackets and dropped crotch lines to billowing silhouettes, the Armani man was afforded a relaxed pacing. Pairing down light silk, linen and wool with casual sneakers, the collection also embraced a graphic nature, grounded in navy and black. Dressing a comfortable spring lineup in gradients, stripes, checks and other eye catching prints, Giorgio Armani achieved a sophisticated feat.

Far East Movement–With a tall arc pressed up against the end of the runway, a trip to the far East was inevitable for Canali’s spring season. Lovely silk scarves were gracefully wrapped around the neck and draped carelessly underneath linen and silk blended blazers, exuding a bold decadence. Lightweight knits with eastern necklines and shirting with mandarin collars and button enclosures were paired with delightful footwear, while tailored silk blazers imprinted with opulent prints were worn with fitted trousers for an updated stab at modern elegance.

Rinse, Wash & Repeat–Caught somewhere between the skater and the cyclist, Frankie Morello’s man embraces a sporty attitude for the spring 2012 season. Hitting the catwalk in an array of fitted and relaxed silhouettes, a myriad of inspirations manifest themselves in a varied range. While narrow jackets and shirting options relay a certain sportsmanship, ties transformed into belts add a little novelty. Meanwhile, oversize proportions, nylon jackets, transparent fabrications and a vast lineup of color continue the youthful spontaneity that is key to the Italian’s label fun image.
