The Boy’s Club–Mark Vanderloo, Philip Huang, Ben Hill and RJ Rogenski are brought together for a stellar spring/summer 2012 campaign from Hugo Boss Black. Photographed by Mario Sorrenti, the handsome lot venture to the desert, bringing a little grit to a stylish spring/summer 2012 collection.

Exploring New Options–Casting a varied lot of characters and exploring different silhouettes and color schemes for the fall/winter 2012 season, designer Roberto Cavalli turns his attention to the future. Toning down the color within reason, outerwear takes on the dominant role in a seamless lineup of layered ensembles. A man of several identities, Cavalli’s man dons a bright-colored cape when not donning a dapper bow tie for an evening on the town. Towing the line between timeless elegance and modern expectations, the collection reviews a well-versed venture. From tailored and fitted to oversize and playful, Roberto Cavalli’s latest collection showcases the fantastical whims of a clever wardrobe with infinite room to grow.
