Native Son Fall 2011 Preview | Mercedes-​​Benz Fashion Week

Native Son puts tra­di­tion on an Amer­i­can des­ti­na­tion course for fall’s col­lec­tion enti­tled The Track. The Train. The Trav­eler. While the collection’s intent was to cap­ture a fusion of the past, present and future, the ensem­bles dis­played a chaotic mix­ing of con­tem­po­rary rem­nants with a touch of the refined stan­dards. Trav­el­ing a clear path save for a cou­ple mis­placed acces­sories, the collection’s strength was evi­dent in tai­lored jack­ets and out­er­wear that struck a smart chord. /​ Pho­tos by Carl Bar­nett (The Fashionisto)
