Departing Paris for a tour of the world, the Kenzo man took to many exciting influences for Antonio Marras’ latest outing for the label. From the simple beret and stripes to the subtle prints of the East or an urban safari, Marras delighted with a contemporary look that offered many facets. Whether tackling the world as an enlightened scholar or diving in head first as an anthropologist, the Kenzo man was outfitted for all occasions with the utmost style and grace.

Kris Van Assche’s latest work for Dior Homme promised a clean affair which turned out to be the designer’s handiwork in draping. A progression of last season’s relaxed affair, yesterday’s show offered a monochrome selection of sleek light numbers that really stood out in terms of movement. Graceful yet strong, billowing jackets and sleeveless shirting alike provided an alluring wardrobe for the spring season.

Unleashing a parade of striking ensembles, Cerruti brushed up on the classics for a retro-inspired lesson on the demeanor of a gentleman. Loose and unassuming, but not void of clean lines, tailored separates and buttery soft leather marked a collection of sophistication and bad boy charm.

Not deviating too far from their luxe image, Gucci looked to the glamor of the 70’s for next year’s spring. Blending denim blues and rich browns with psychedelic prints, the latest collection put the groove back into the step of Gucci’s man. Catching attention with knits and sandals or a striking suit or two, Gucci is sure to make a splash next season with the expected must-haves and an impressive editorial run.

Showcasing an appreciation for an impeccable balance of tailoring and proportion control, Wooyoungmi opts for an understated black and white fall campaign styled once more by Andrej Skok. Featuring Matvey Lykov and Johannes Linder photographed by Marton Perlaki, the duo envelop a modern grace with character.

Approaching fall with a determination to improve his man’s wardrobe in lieu of completely reinventing it, Christophe Lemaire looked to expanded silhouettes to give an effortless air of casualness to his latest collection. Cut from wool and tweed, the voluminous range maintains a minimalist vision, while advancing exciting features like the wrap kimono or tubular scarf. Sharp and to the point, fall’s collection delivers an atypical grace and poise, while embracing a renewed sense of timelessness.

Matvey Lykov was not only an exclusive for Jil Sander in Fall/Winter 2008 and Spring/Summer 2010 but he also opened and closed both seasons. He even starred in Jil Sander’s Fall/Winter 2008 campaign. Quite the impressive start onto the fashion scene for this young Russian. Matvey went on to star in campaigns for Gucci, Barney’s and Wooyoungmi. He is best known for his high cheekbones and strong nose.
